    Please advise if I am posting my question in the wrong area, or am making other rookie mistakes.

    How do I create a conditional sidebar for a specific a page.

    Here's what I've come up with so far. It's just not working.

    // TESTING NEW WIDGET AREA
    
    genesis_register_sidebar( array(
    	'id'          => 'test-page-sidebar',
    	'name'        => __( 'Test Page Widget', 'mythemename' ),
    	'description' => __( 'The Page Widget Area.', 'mythemename' ),
    ) );
    
    /**
     * TESTING CUSTOM SIDEBAR OUTPUT 
     *
     * Show Custom Sidebar in Primary Sidebar location for a Static Page
     */
    function bpsp_change_genesis_primary_sidebar() {
     
         if ( is_page('test-page') ) { // Static Page
    		 
            // Remove Primary Sidebar from the Primary Sidebar Area
            remove_action( 'genesis_sidebar', 'genesis_do_sidebar' );
     
            // Show test-page-sidebar in Primary Sidebar Area
            add_action( 'genesis_sidebar', 'bpsp_do_sidebar' );
        } 
    }
    
    // Function to Output my Custom Sidebar
    
    function bpsp_do_sidebar() {
    	
    	dynamic_sidebar( 'test-page-sidebar' );
    	
    }
    

    I've been using the following posts as an example and have tried to modify them for my specific need:
