Hello John,
By default the sidebar is omitted in this template within the items. You can easily embed it by altering the index.php file a bit. No need to worry about these changes because index.php is removed from the update packages.
<?php if($this->countModules('businessOne_Sidebar') && ($view!='item' && $view!='article')): ?>
This is around line 129 and change it to
<?php if($this->countModules('businessOne_Sidebar')): ?>
Around line 114 locate
<div class="content column <?php if($this->countModules('businessOne_Sidebar') && ($view!='item' && $view!='article') && ($pageSuffix!='gridView')) echo 'eight mobile-four alpha'; else echo 'twelve alpha omega'; ?><?php if($this->countModules('businessOne_SubmenuCategories') && ($option=='com_k2' && $view=='itemlist' && $task!='tag' && $task!='search')) echo ' enabledSubmenuCategory'; ?>">
and change it to
<div class="content column <?php if($this->countModules('businessOne_Sidebar')) echo 'eight mobile-four alpha'; else echo 'twelve alpha omega'; ?><?php if($this->countModules('businessOne_SubmenuCategories') && ($option=='com_k2' && $view=='itemlist' && $task!='tag' && $task!='search')) echo ' enabledSubmenuCategory'; ?>">
If you need different spacing in your items after this change let me know so I can assist you with the coding.
