The side menu appears on all pages. I would like to be able to use a different side menu for each page.
I know this has to do with the Wordpress theme. I'm kind of new to Wordpress. I'm using a default theme of those already installed.
Could I do what I said? Put a different side menu on each page? If so could they give me links or small information on how it should be done?
It is possible, but to be able to help first I need to know what this side menu is and is being called. How is the side of your site called? There is usually a file named sidebar.php in the theme that is responsible for presenting information on the side, if this is the case you can use the is_*(); functions of WordPress to check which page is being accessed and call the correct menu, eg:
If you want a menu for home and another for all internal pages:
if( is_home() ){
// código do menu da home
}
else{
// código do menu das internas
}
If you want a menu for home, another for all internal, and a different one for the contact page, do the following:
if( is_home() ){
// código do menu da home
}
else if( is_page( 'contato' ) ){
// código do menu da página de contato
}
else{
// código do menu de todas as outras páginas
}
Notice that it's quite relative?
