Question

I’m working on this website in WordPress and I want the content with the title “Featured Business” that’s on the sidebar to appear on all pages. I created a template for it but it doesn’t display when called. The code is as shown below.

    <div id="ftb">
      The content
    </div>
    <!-- End FTP -->

and I called it with <?php get_ftb(); ?> But it doesn’t show.

If you want to display a chunk of html that’s part of the sidebar (but not the entire sidebar), I recommend to place it on functions.php, like this:

<?php
function get_ftb() {
?>
    <div id="ftb">
      The content
    </div>
    <!-- End FTP -->
<?php } ?>

After that you’ll be free to call it with get_ftb();

If you just need to call the entire sidebar, use get_sidebar() instead.
