Create alternative menu in page sidebar / QreativeThemes

By default the service pages use the same page sidebar and menu. In some cases, for example if you have a lot of services to display, you want to use alternative menus on some pages. You can do that by following these steps:

----

First make sure to set the default sidebar under "Settings -> Reading" by selecting the "Page Sidebar" at the "Default Sidebar" setting.

----

1. Create a new menu

Go to Appearance -> Menus
Click the "Create a new menu" link":

Enter a logical name for this menu
Add the links your would like to show in this menu
Save the menu

2. Create a new sidebar location for a page

Go the the "Pages" admin tab
Edit the page where you want to show the different sidebar menu
On the right side at the sidebar field click on "Enter New":

Enter a logical name for this sidebar, or the same name you used for the menu
Click the "Update" button below the field
Save the page

If you want to display this same custom page sidebar on another page you don't have to create a new one. You can simple choose the already created custom sidebar from the dropdown field above the "enter new" link.

3. Assign the menu to this new sidebar location

Go to Appearance -> Widgets
Add a "Navigation" widget to the new created sidebar panel
Edit the navigation widget and select your new created menu from the dropdown field.

Now your new menu should be displayed in the sidebar of the page.
