Custom post type and sidebar

Hello,

I created a custom post type, and my archives page displays all the custom posts. I would like to display the sidebar at the left at this page, and at the left of my taxonomies/categories pages.

When I change this setting in Appearance > Customize > Blog (Archives and Single), it works on the archive blog page, but not on my custom post type.

What can I do ?

I tried to follow instructions here : https://docs.oceanwp.org/article/203-altering-layouts but it works only on my single custom page, and not on the archives pages.

Thanks a lot in advance,

Hello,

You are using the correct doc but try to change the conditional tag for the archive page.

Thanks for this link, it helps me !
I use this code and I have the left sidebar on all my custom post type pages.
Thank you very much !

function my_post_layout_class( $class ) {

// Alter your layout
if ( is_singular( ‘mycpt’ ) ) {
$class = ‘left-sidebar’;
}
elseif ( is_archive( ‘mycpt’ ) ) {
$class = ‘left-sidebar’;
}

// Return correct class
return $class;

}
add_filter( ‘ocean_post_layout_class’, ‘my_post_layout_class’, 20 );`

Hi, me again

In fact, I wanted a left sidebar because I wanted to display my sidebar before the content on mobile, but it’s not the case. And when I select the checkbox to display in first sidebar in Appearance > Customize > Blog, it doesn’t work. Do you know how is it possible to change the order on mobile ? Thanks !

Hello,

Kindly share that page URL where you getting that sidebar order issue.

and for the left sidebar on the CPT, kindly try the below-snipped code and check.
```
function my_post_layout_class( $class ) {

	// Alter your layout
	if ( is_single( 'mycpt' ) ) {
		$class = 'left-sidebar';
	}

	// Return correct class
	return $class;

}
add_filter( 'ocean_post_layout_class', 'my_post_layout_class', 20 );
```
