RTP Question: Can I change Sidebar Items or is it just whole pages

Hey Everyone I have a quick question.

I am not familiar at all with RTP (Time to do home work) and wanted to run a quick question by the community. Can you use RTP to switch out side bars? The problem we are having is that we have a side bar on about 20 pages that hyperlinks to our webinars/ upcoming events/ etc. every time we have a new webinar etc. it's a manual process to go page by page and change out the image and link.

I wanted to see if RTP could handle this task so if we change it out once it will dynamically change the rest? Any help and/or best practices is extremely appreciated

Cheers,

Yes, that's the whole point of RTP.

Generally you define the ad block that you want to personalize. I'm not sure about the sidebar specifics, but it should be possible as there was a thread on this a month ago. Is the side bar a pop up/slider or is it a defined skyscraper or box?

Hey josh,

Thank you for easy access to the product doc. It is currently a defined skyscraper type.

Hey Justin, as long as there is a unique <div id> for that section, you can replace the entire div with something new. The example below shows the standard box on one of our pages on the left, and it's dynamically changed for people who aren't current newsletter subscribers on the right.

Awesome thank you Dory
