simple sidebars for multiple CPT's?

[design_agency]

hi all–

i have two custom post types that i'd like to assign simple sidebars to. so far, i've found this code

add_post_type_support( 'custom', 'genesis-simple-sidebars' );

which allows me to register a single CPT, but when i add a second i get the blank screen of death. anyone out there know how i can get the simple sidebar selectors to show up on both of my CPT edit screens?

many thanks!
emily

Hi again Emily!
I think you're very close. If I'm following you, maybe you were trying to do both Post Types in one command? If you run the command twice, once with each Post Type, that should sail right through.

add_post_type_support( 'cake', 'genesis-simple-sidebars' );
add_post_type_support( 'ice_cream', 'genesis-simple-sidebars' );

Cheers, Dave

Hi Emily!
You're welcome. Not silly at all... many commands do allow multiple parameters.

Dirty little secret - I actually use several sidebar customizing plugins - different ones do different (or more) things. 🙂 I've had clients, though, who want things so customized that I've written custom code for each bit!

Nice to see you again!
Dave
