Dynamic sidebar with Low Variables, Matrix and Playa
I absolutely love Low variables and am just getting to grips with what it can do.
I've already used it with Playa and Matrix without any issues.
I'm thinking of attempting a 'dynamic sidebar' in LV for my client to use. All of the sidebar content (widgets) will be pre-built in entered into a sidebar channel.
Would it work if I set up Matrix with Playa fields, that allow the user to select a page on the site (channel entry) in the left pane and the sidebar widgets they would like in the right, then have it display correctly on the website using conditionals?
Or am I getting too far ahead of myself here?

Hi Jon,
I'm not quite sure what you mean or what the code would look like. Best advice I can give at this stage is to have a go and see how it goes.

Okay, no worries, I'll give it a try and see if I tear my hair out or not! :o)
