You need a child theme for this, because BuddyPress overwrites the dynamic sidebar functionality in WordPress. Grab the blank child theme from forums.
1. Create a new sidebar in the sidebar manager in options panel, called mysidebar
2. In the child theme, create a course folder.
Copy the course/index.php file from parent theme and paste it in child theme folder.
Locate this code in the index.php file in child them :
PHP Code:
<?php $sidebar = apply_filters('wplms_sidebar','buddypress',get_the_ID()); if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar')|| !dynamic_sidebar($sidebar) ) : ?> <?php endif; ?>
change it to :
PHP Code:
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar')|| !dynamic_sidebar('mysidebar') ) : ?> <?php endif; ?>
