[Reply] Dejan (3 comments.) — 06/13/2008 @ 5:02 pmjust wanna touch the include specific files tips for sidebar
if you have additional sidebar like for single or archive you can do it like the following (WP2.5.x)
get_sidebar($name); // arg $name is sidebar-"name".php
the function will look for sidebar-single.php (inside theme dir) and load it if exists otherwise it will load the default sidebar.php.
you can include section base sidebar base on wordpress hierarchical order. below is just a simple example (need to tweak it base on which section came first thought)

get_sidebar('single'); // include /theme/sidebar-single.php
} elseif (is_archive()){
get_sidebar('archive'); // include /theme/sidebar-archive.php
} else {
get_sidebar();
}
thanks for the tip ChaosKaizer
