Attempting to use different sidebars based on content, have everything working except for the Event Espresso Details page
<?php
$sidebar_name = get_post_meta($post->ID,”_page_sidebar_widget”,true);
dynamic_sidebar($sidebar_name);
if (in_category(‘9’)) {
dynamic_sidebar(‘News Sidebar’);
}
elseif (in_category(’10’)) {
dynamic_sidebar(‘Jobs Sidebar’);
}
elseif (in_category(‘espresso_events’)) {
dynamic_sidebar(‘Events Sidebar’);
}
elseif (is_single() || is_archive() || is_category() || is_search() || is_404()) {
dynamic_sidebar(‘Blog Sidebar’);
}
?>

Hi,
Did you create a category called “espresso_events”?
By default “espresso_events” is not a post category nor is it an Event Category category (Event Categories are a custom taxonomy attached only to events).
I would look to use either get_post_type (https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_type) or perhaps is_post_type_archive (https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_post_type_archive) depending on where you are adding these sidebars.
Then use a basic if statement to check if the post type equals espresso_events.
With get_post_type you *might* need to call global $post but I would try with the default example that uses get_the_ID() first and see how that goes.

Dean,
Thanks for the quick response. The get_the_ID() solution worked perfectly.
