Hy Hi Dear my colormag theme widgets this problem please slove it 👇

Your theme has 4 other widget areas, but this particular page does not display them.

You can navigate to other pages on your site while using the Customizer to view and edit the widgets displayed on those pages.

Hi, thanks for this tutorial. In this moment I am stuck in a probably simple situation, bat I didn't find a solution. Almost all tutorials explain how to create a sidebar and how to edit widgets, removing or adding them. But my problem is: where can I change their style? text color, background, font, etc. ? particular with elementor? Many thanks in advance.

how to add templates on the other side container of the sidebar?

[movimientofire]

How do you add a sidebar on the right side with Elementor that is not grouped with other containers? Because if you do a long sidebar, it might be too far down for the next down container to make the website look appealing. thank you in advance!
