# Sidebar Disappears when adding

 * First of all this app is (almost) awesome!
 * However, I’m having an issue where every time I create a new sidebar, any/all
   sidebars I’ve already created and placed in a post/page get’s removed. This is
   pretty severe as I want to add a new sidebar when I creating a post. And as it
   is I have to go back and choose the sidebar on every page/post.
 * Once I create a new sidebar. The “Allow this sidebar to be replaced” checkbox
   gets unchecked automatically. And I get the “… All sidebars have been locked,
   you cannot replace them.” So once I go back and re-check the “Allow this sidebar
   to be replaced” checkbox, all of the posts I had sidebars chosen on are removed.
 * Can this be fixed? Is there a way around this? Help is appreciated!

 * Hey there zmulholl,
 * Hope you’re well today and sorry for the late response.
 * This looks like a conflict with the theme that you’re using or with another plugin.
 * Could you please test for possible conflicts as displayed in the flowchart to
   know which theme/plugin is conflicting if any.

 * Looking forward for your reply 🙂
 * Best regards,
    Bojan
