Alternative: put all the single-post widgets in the same sidebar, but control which ones show up by the language selector https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-widgets/displaying-different-widgets-for-different-languages/
This would require 0 additional dev hours.
Question: Is the language selector sufficient for this purpose?
I'll need more information to answer that question. Does the language selector create a Spanish version of the sidebar on posts?
It does not create a separate Spanish-specific sidebar. Rather, it allows certain widgets to be shown only in particular languages, so that the the post sidebar will contain English and Spanish widgets, but only English or Spanish widgets will be displayed on a post.
This also applies to https://github.com/INN/umbrella-caribbean/issues/94
Requirement: When a user of the site clicks over to the Spanish version of the homepage, and then clicks into a Spanish version of an article, the sidebar content will be in Spanish without having to click on another "English/Spanish" toggle.
@benlk If this meets that requirement, then this works!
I believe this meets that requirement. We can provide them the docs at https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-widgets/displaying-different-widgets-for-different-languages/ for them to test to make sure.
Following on #94, all other widget areas have been translated, and I've duplicated the newsletter signup Gravity Form to translate that as well.
This is ready for them to review.
This should be doable by creating the sidebar in Largo's options, or by using https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-widgets/
