Now you can create as many sidebars as you need for any page you want. That’s right, page specific sidebars. You can easily seperate your site into sections, or make every single page have page specific content on it. This does not override your current sidebar(s). This only adds sidebars, so if there is a sidebar selected for the page, it will display the generated sidebar instead of your typical sidebar.
Features (Current version: 1.0.1):
- Generate unlimited sidebars
- pick a sidebar on a per-page basis
- unique CSS classes for each sidebar for customizable looks
- AJAX admin
To install:
- download the Sidebar Generator Plugin
- unzip and upload into your /wp-content/plugins/ folder.
- activate the plugin
- update your sidebar.php file (or any file that calls a sidebar) and replace dynamic_sidebar() with generated_dynamic_sidebar()

Example:
- This website is an example. Notice that there are different widgets on each page. The sidebars are completely seperate. Any widget can be added to any sidebar. In this example (for ease of navigation) I’ve included the page widget on every sidebar, to differentiate them, I’ve given them different titles. I also put different text widgets, search widgets and calendar widgets on them. There is no limit to the number of sidebars you can create. If you want to customize the look (by colors, background images, or anything else) a class is given to each sidebar which is labeled in the admin.
