I'm implementing a page-driven site using a child theme of Thematic 0.9 and need to display different sidebar content depending on the page that's being viewed. I've successfully accomplished this by copying the sidebar.php file into the child theme and adding a series of 'if/elseif/else' statements in the '#primary' and '#secondary' sections that parse the page slugs.
Is a manual child template file the best way to accomplish this result? Or is there a way to change the contents of '#primary' and '#secondary' in the child functions.php file? Or should I try using if/elseif/else in the page template to serve up different versions of sidebar.php, e.g. sidebar1.php, sidebar2.php, etc.?
Curious to get thoughts on what a "best approach" might be... Thanks!
