  • Smooth and Simple, No Hassle, Needs One Tweak

    Works perfectly. Twentyseventeen is a great theme for its clean layout. This plugin extends design continuity between posts and pages. i also use "Category Tag Pages" plugin. "Page Sidebar for Twenty Seventeen" would be even better if it created a "article footer.entry-footer" slot for page taxonomy.

  • Doesn't Work

    I tried the directions: Go to customize-theme options-=page layout one- but nothing works.

  • Simply Works

    Works like a charm easy to use, just what I needed. Thanks!

  • Does the job!

    Couldn't be easier to add a sidebar to Twenty Seventeen. Only on the right hand side, though, but that's fine with me. And not on the home page if it's static, but that's what I wanted anyway. And for jue_mue who said it's not working, it's probably working but empty. You have to add a widget to the sidebar or it won't appear.

  • No sidebar on front page 'panels'

    I regret to report the plugin's only half working. Sidebars magically appeared on separately-published pages, but not on those I've allocated to the front-page panels. I belatedly found this in the info: "Due to limitations in the theme, the front page sidebar will not be displayed if using the Front Page Sections feature." Pity, as that's where I wanted them - but if you use a lot of pages (as opposed to posts) on your 2017 site, this would be very handy.
