In some instances GSS or WP ignores sidebar id and uses the title: #21

What is happening now:

I made a Genesis Simple Sidebar named Sidebar. (That's my creative side.)

I left the id blank. So an id of gss-sidebar-1 was generated.

Now whenever I add a widget to this sidebar it also is added to the primary sidebar with and id of sidebar

Noting that I was not able to replicate this with other sidebars subsequently.

Testing if this a preexisting bug in Production:

  • I cannot replicate exactly b/c when I do this with the production plugin I get the error that this issue is meant to solve.
  • When I create a new sidebar with gss 2.0.4 & name the sidebar Sidebar and give it an id of sidebar even though there is an existing sidebar with that name, then the gss sidebar replaces that one.
  • So this may be somewhat preexisting.

I was able to replicate this again with the develop plugin but following the above instructions on a different wp install.

Creating a sidebar manually with the same specs gives the same result:

Name => Sidebar
ID => gss-sidebar-1

Nathan's comments:

OK, let's get this into another issue. It might not even be fixable. Seems like WordPress basically ignores the ID and is using the Title in some instances. I'll have to investigate. But this shouldn't hold back a release, IMO.
