-	__Curriculum Vitae__	+	====== How do I add a sidebar? ======
-		+
-	Nombre y Apellidos: Kevin Segura Saez	+	If you're using [[template:dokuwiki\|the new default template]] (or any other template which supports sidebars out of the box), you already have a sidebar functionality. If you are using a different template, there are basically two ways to add a sidebar functionality:
-	Domicilio: Avnd Juan XIII 24 5º4ª	+
-	Tel: 466723441	+	* Either choose a template which already comes with a sidebar, see [[http://www.dokuwiki.org/template?plugintag=sidebar\|templates tagged with 'sidebar']]. (There might be some which are missing the tag, so be sure to check out all of the [[:templates]].)
		+	* Or install a plugin which will add a sidebar to your template, see [[plugintag>sidebar\|plugins tagged with 'sidebar']].
		+
		+	Using a template which includes a sidebar functionality is often a better choice, as that sidebar will already be optimised to fit into the template's design and layout.
		+
		+	===== I have a sidebar functionality. How can I create or edit a sidebar now? =====
		+
		+	Most templates use a normal wiki [[:page]] called "sidebar" for the sidebar. Some make this configurable, so you can choose the name of the page. (E.g. since Adora Belle there is the [[config:sidebar]] config option which some templates support.) And others have several sidebars, each of which will have their own page, sometimes even depending on namespaces.
		+
		+	In the most likely event that your sidebar is a page called "sidebar", you just need to [[:page#create_a_page\|create it]]. Go to ''%%http://your-wiki.com/doku.php?id=sidebar%%'', click "Create this page", edit the page, save, and you're done. That's it, your saved changes will appear in your sidebar.
		+
		+	===== How can I have an automatic navigation in my sidebar? =====
		+
		+	Best install one of the [[plugintag>menu\|plugins tagged with 'menu']] or [[plugintag>navigation\|plugins tagged with 'navigation']].
		+
		+	In many cases you will also need to add the ''%%~~NOCACHE~~%%'' [[:wiki:syntax#control_macros\|macro]] when using a plugin which changes the sidebar's appearance per page or namespace.
		+
		+	===== My sidebar doesn't update properly or highlights the wrong parts =====
		+
		+	If your sidebar contains dynamic elements (e.g. highlighting of the current page or opening of a sub list, like a lot of navigation plugins do), then you need to add the ''%%~~NOCACHE~~%%'' macro to your page to prevent [[:caching\|caching]] of the sidebar.
