Hi,

I use you plugin to create custom web site with list of yacht and accommondations. Problem is that I need in single-yacht or single-accomondation, sidebar with contact form. I use contact form 7 for contact form, theme that I use is XTRA (have sidebar options) but problem is that something block sidebar content (writen in widget). I try to use many different plugin for sidebar but the problem is the same, sidebar is always empty.

How can I get sidebar is single-page who is created with Toolset (custom template for custom post type)

Thank You

Hi, normally sidebars are controlled by the theme using widgets. If you want to add a sidebar in a Toolset Content Template, you should disable the sidebars added by your theme using the theme options. Then, you can use the Block Editor to add a side column to your Content Template grid, and insert your form block in that column. Or you can use the basic editor to add a column using your own custom HTML and CSS, and insert the form there using a shortcode.

If neither of those sounds like a good option for your site, you can try adding a Toolset Form to the sidebar created by your theme. If that doesn't work, we can try to investigate and figure out how to make it work correctly. I don't currently have access to the Xtra theme, so I'm not sure if Toolset Forms will work in the sidebar or not. If you'd like to send me a link to download a zip of those files, I will be glad to run a quick test.
