If you want to display the static block on all cms pages with 2-columns-layout:

create a new file in your theme:

<magento-root>/app/design/frontend/<Vendor>/<theme>/Magento_Cms/layout/cms_page_view.xml

and add your static-block to the sidebar.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!--
/**
 * Copyright © 2013-2017 Magento, Inc. All rights reserved.
 * See COPYING.txt for license details.
 */
-->
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
 <body>
 <referenceContainer name="sidebar.additional">
 <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="mycustomstaticblock">
 <arguments>
 <argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">static_block_id</argument>
 </arguments>
 </block>
 </referenceContainer>
 </body>
</page>

Keep in mind that the CMS-page needs to be set to 2-columns.

EDIT: REMOVED IN VERSION 2.3.4 but still possible in prior versions - If you want to display your static block on a specific cms page:

Navigate to to your CMS-Page:

Content -> Pages -> Your CMS-Page

go to "Design"

add following code to "Layout Update XML"

<referenceContainer name="sidebar.additional">
 <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="mycustomstaticblock">
 <arguments>
 <argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">static_block_id</argument>
 </arguments>
 </block>
</referenceContainer>

Take a look at the new documentation at https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.3/frontend-dev-guide/layouts/xml-manage.html#create-cms-pageproductcategory-specific-layouts for Magento versions 2.3.4 or above as mentioned by @Luis Paulo Lohmann

  • thanks , i want to display the static block on all cms pages with 2-columns-layout, Plz can details file name with path. 1. create a new file in your theme: name with extention & full Path. 2. add your static-block to the sidebar file name & path Commented Mar 21, 2018 at 8:50
  • you have to create the cms_page_view.xml file in your custom theme as mentioned above. There you have to insert the code which I wrote. Replace "static_block_id" with the identifier which you chose for your static block Commented Mar 21, 2018 at 15:38

  • Please notice that Magento 2.3.4 removed the option to add custom layout updates via admin. Here's the new documentation: devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.3/frontend-dev-guide/layouts/… Commented Jul 17, 2020 at 16:35
