Then add a few more

If you only need to add sidebars to a few pages, just go to the corresponding page background, find fusion page options at the bottom of the page, find the sidebar, set the corresponding sidebar and display location, and save. Refresh the page to see
In one case, the sidebar cannot be added to the page, that is, the template of this page selects the 100% full width mode, so no matter you add it globally or add it to a single page, you cannot add a sidebar

If you select 6, after saving, 6 more footer widgets will appear in the widgets, which are equally divided
