    Hi, I am using a Boss Pro theme. The widgets in the sidebar do not show since a couple of days. Can you help figure out, what the reason might be?

    It should show in the shop page:

    I made a simple post with sidebar to see how the sidebar works with posts - well it does not here eiter:

    Actually the site was migrated to a new server about a week ago. Might this have had an impact?

    I moved the site with the Duplicator plugin.

    I have also added a "Mailgun integration for WordPress" plugin. I doubt this could affect the sidebar, but I am clueless what else might be the cause.

    Your pages are all set for full width content which means sidebars won't be visible. Set your pages with a layout that includes the sidebar.

    Hello Victor,

    I changed the Genesis Theme Settings to full width, and I checked the Shop page setting - it was full width, and the setting of the post mentioned above - that one was full width as well.

    The sidebars still do not show.

    Any further ideas?

    Like I said, sidebars DO NOT display on full-width pages. If you want to see sidebars do not use the full-width display layout.

    I wrote the wrong thing, but did the right.

    Both pages are set NOT full width. And the theme setting is NOT full width.

    Yet, sidebars do not get displayed.

    You have CSS that sets the sidebar to display: none;

    .before-blog, .front-page-6, .sidebar, a.wc-forward, .product_meta {
        display: none;
    }

    This is inline CSS and not part of Genesis or the theme's style sheet. It's coming from the WordPress customizer, which means it's custom CSS that you or another developer added.

    Thank you!

    How did you find this bit of code? I tried with inspector, but as I could not right-click it, could not find it. How did you do it?

    Right click works for me, but even if right click doesn't work, you can access the inspector from the browser's menu.
