We’ve got a new feature to improve upon our Shoppe and Ultra themes! The new sticky sidebar feature is here to provide all your customers a better shopping experience. You can now have your product filter stick on the sidebar so that users can select, filter, and accurately narrow their product search on the fly.
Previously, the product filter used to be on the bottom of the screen, requiring customers to scroll all the way down in order to narrow or widen their search. Now users can select or deselect filters in the sidebar, or they can pop the sidebar in or out on mobile mode. All you have to do is update your Ultra or Shoppe theme to the latest versions and enable the sticky side bar feature to start using it.
We hope you enjoy this little update and take the Sticky Sidebar demo for a spin. We’re working on bringing you more new and exciting things, even after our great, big update to our lightning fast Builder! Please see what we’ve updated to get caught up.

Hi Mark,
You can set the sidebars sticky based on Default Layouts in Themify Settings > Default Layouts: https://cl.ly/5ee7cc071669 select the layout you would like to apply the sticky sidebar for: https://cl.ly/4ac77d24fc55

Hi Mark,
Sorry, but I am not sure to which other sidebar you are referring to by “Widgetised Sidebar”, could you send us a link to your website, to the page where you have the “widgetised sidebar”?

Hi,
I am refering to making a Widgetised area and inserting a sidebar – like this: http://tinypic.com/m/k35dgm/3

Hi Mark,
No, unfortunately the Sticky Sidebar Option doesn’t work for Builder Modules, but for Builder Modules you can use Sticky Scrolling: https://cl.ly/9aa4d6cd7260 please watch our video tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lL_2zgaEOhY
