How Do I Display the Sidebar in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 3:25 pm

WooCommerce is a powerful eCommerce plugin that is integrated with WordPress. It makes it easy to set up an online store and sell products.

One of the great things about WooCommerce is that it has a built-in sidebar. This sidebar can be used to display important information about your store, such as your contact information, shipping rates, and recent products.

The WooCommerce sidebar is located on the left-hand side of the page, by default. If you want to change the location of the sidebar, you can do so in the WordPress Customizer.

To do this, go to Appearance > Customize. Then, click on the WooCommerce tab. From here, you can choose to display the sidebar on the right-hand side of the page.

If you want to hide the WooCommerce sidebar completely, you can do so by going to Appearance > Widgets. Then, drag all of the widgets that are currently in the WooCommerce Sidebar into the Inactive Widgets area.

The WooCommerce sidebar can be a great way to display important information about your store. You can change its location in the WordPress Customizer or hide it completely if you don’t want to use it.

PRO TIP: If you are using the WooCommerce plugin for WordPress, you may have noticed that the sidebar is not displayed on the WooCommerce pages by default. This can be frustrating if you are used to having a sidebar on your WordPress site.

There is a way to display the sidebar on WooCommerce pages, but it requires editing your theme files. If you are not comfortable editing your theme files, we recommend contacting a developer or taking a look at our guide on how to add a sidebar to WooCommerce pages.
