Archive – Incorrect sidebar used when 0 posts

Hello there @klivie,

I trust you’re doing well!

Please try the following workaround. Add the code to the functions.php of your child theme or as mu-plugin.

add_filter( 'cs_replace_post_type', function( $post_type, $replace_type ){

    if ( 'archive' == $replace_type && empty( $post_type ) ) {

        $queried_object = get_queried_object();

        if ( isset( $queried_object->name ) ) {
            $post_type = $queried_object->name;
        }

    }

    return $post_type;
}, 20, 2 );

If you have no child theme, please see here How to Create a WordPress Child Theme.

Or else, to add is as mu-plugin, please create mu-plugins folder in /wp-content/ directory. Create a blank file using a text editor and name it cs-replace-post-type.php.

On the forst line please add <?php and then the rest of the code. Save and upload the file to the /wp-content/mu-plugins/ directory.

Let us know how it went!

Kind regards,
Nastia

HI @klivie

Thanks for confirmation that it works for you and I’m happy to hear it solved the issue!

The code was provided by our developers and along with other possible updates it’s also undergoing QA tests so I hope it will be included in future versions. For now though, the snippet should work just fine as is 🙂

Best regards,
Adam
