My sidebar doesnt display as i want

HI,

So im making Wordpress theme, im just fresh from finishing the Bootstrap to WP with Zac, and now im making the same but with little help form the video and i have a problem where only one sidebar displays.

<?php get_sidebar( 'blog' ); ?> <?php get_sidebar( 'page' ); ?>

and my naming are sidebar-blog and sidebar-page with .php endings but it displays only one sidebar in all pages, instead of displaying the right one, int the right page.

I found it! I re-watched your video at college , jsut looking and i missed out that you had the blog page , in settings, set to Blog.

So select the blog page and then in the settings, readings, and set post pages to blog. Yay .

Thank you for your response and other help :D its to easy to learn WordPress with you :D

You will have to write some conditional code telling it what sidebar to display when. Can you post up the code you're using to include the sidebars?
