I have a 4.7 website that uses the SEO Theme and am starting a new website using 5.x using the same them. My major motivation was the themes native use of the Top Right Sidebar that spanned the two right columns -- this was an excellent design implimentation.

I was shocked when going to BLOCKS that there was no option for the Top Sidebar and that in the Theme administration there appears to be no way to get it back. Am I overlooking something? If not, could someone provide the sample CSS and page.tpl code to get this back?

Thanks!

Ps- On a positive note, I was surprised, and happily so, that the new design is wider. That is an excellent change for my needs.

Title: Top Sidebar removed in 5.x? » Hmmm... my error?

I don't quite understand why, but the error is gone when I select the SEO Theme and not the copy of the SEO theme I had renamed (in its own folder with a different name) the top sidebar appears and works great.

I will try to troubleshoot this on my own as the SEO theme works fine :) Thanks for the great theme!

Chances are that renaming the directory which holds the theme files will break some stuff in the template.php file or another important place. Search through the theme files for the title of the directory to find out where it is being referenced and change the found instances to the same name as your new directory. Hope that helps, happened to me too a few times.
