How can i use more than 20 sidebars in wordpress. I'm working on a big information portal, and I need big amaunt of sidebars (about 40, I guess). So I have 20 sidebars now and when I add one more it overrides one of the previous entered. I searched the web about similar problems, but I found nothing ... Can somebody help me get out of this situation?

    That should not happen. Are you using register_sidebars() with a fixed number as first argument?

Just tried it on a test install with twenty-something sidebars, all works fine. Note that id parameter should be unique between all of them. name doesn't have to be, but it's nice to keep it unique as well so as to avoid confusion in the admin UI.

register_sidebar( array(
    'name' => 'twenty-three',
    'id' => 'sidebar-23',
    'description' => 'dummy description',
    'before_widget' => '<aside id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
    'after_widget' => '</aside>',
    'before_title' => '<h3 class="widget-title">',
    'after_title' => '</h3>'
) );

  • It is unique ... Just tried on a fresh install and not work with my theme :( If there is some issue with themes ? Apr 28, 2013 at 20:17
  • Possibly, because it works on the twentytwelve theme. Apr 28, 2013 at 21:36
  • I can't believe ... It is working now. All the day it didn't work, and now it's working. I dont know how. I was just waiting for help here. I'll accept your answer because it is correct. ;) Apr 28, 2013 at 22:27
