Hi there,

I read a lot of tickets yet but didn't find a satisfying answer for me.

I need 2 sidebars on my pages and user-profiles. so far module-positions like es-sidebar-left and es-sidebar-right.
I found the default.php under root/components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/pages/default/default.php to use as an override but how can I customize it in order to show modules as expected?

Thanks
Peer
Hello Peer,

If I understand you correctly, you only want it to appear on the page item and user profile page is that correct? You could use the following module positions:

Profile Items
* es-profile-sidebar-top
* es-profile-sidebar-bottom

Page Items
* es-pages-item-sidebar-top
* es-pages-item-sidebar-bottom

Hi Mark,
I don't want to show these modules above and below other sidebar modules.
I want to show modules on the left as well as on the right of the content. Something like on vanilla template.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to achieve this, the component itself only possible to add the custom module position within the component area. And the component can't handle the template left and right positions like what you have shown us in the screenshot above.

Perhaps you can find the template which can support the left and right module position or you can consider using the Vanilla template since the Vanilla template already meets your requirement.
