Left and Right Sidebar on Right of Content

Is something like this possible? I was not able to drag the left sidebar to the right side. I would prefer not to have to create a bunch of templates for this since I rarely use the left sidebar because of responsive layouts pushing the content under the left.

Thanks

Hello, Artisteer and many other templates I have seen allow you to have the left and or right columns together on one side or the other. I have a couple sites that the right columns need to be different widths depending on the page. So I frequently use the system where the left is 200px and the right is 300px but both are on the right side of the template. Is something like this possible? I was not able to drag the left sidebar to the right side.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.
One of the future Themler updates with support changing of Sidebars order using FlexOrder option. Currently it works for Columns control only.
Most probably this will be a next update after upcoming update.

Thank you,
Olivia

OK thanks, would mostly be useful for blog pages that use that share a template to have different width columns.

Hello, can you explain what column control and flexorder is? I am trying to learn as much as possible about this product and the more advanced features.

Do you have any instructions for using this specifically in Themler?

Open the Left Sidebar options in the right panel and set the flex-order property to 1.
That should work fine.

Thanks,

Is there some guidance to how this can be used overall? Can this be used to set orders in responsive vs desktop views? E.g. have one column above content other on bottom, etc.

Can this be set for anything? Sorry, not super aware of this kind of stuff.

Thanks

Hi,

This property works for flexbox containers only: Columns, Sidebars.
Yes, you can change the order of sidebars in responsive mode separately.
Flex order does not work for "Content" sidebar and works inside, let-say, one row only:

Left Sidebar

Above CMS Content
Content
Under CMS Content

Right Sidebar

For example: for

Left Sidebar

Right Sidebar

Above CMS Content
Content
Under CMS Content

use flex-order "-1" for right and "-2" for left.

And for

Above CMS Content
Content
Under CMS Content

Left Sidebar

Right Sidebar

use "1"for left and "2" for right.

Check the Sections like this:
http://templates.themler.com/Themes/Detail/2872955/Six-Columns-icons?statisticsID=49033487&containsInPage=False
Here you can see flex-order applied to Columns.

Thank you,
Olivia
