Adding Secondary Sidebar

Hello,

I’ve been trying to modify the Virtue theme to add a secondary sidebar to all pages that want sidebars (in the three column format: sb_left, content, sb_right). I’ve added the following to my child theme’s Functions.php
<?php
add_action( 'widgets_init', 'child_register_sidebar' );

function child_register_sidebar(){
register_sidebar(array(
'name' => __('Secondary Sidebar', 'virtue'),
'id' => 'sidebar-secondary',
'before_widget' => '<section id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s"><div class="widget-inner">',
'after_widget' => '</div></section>',
'before_title' => '<h3>',
'after_title' => '</h3>',
));
}
?>

Now the problems I have are twofold.

1. How do I add a secondary sidebar to theme. The sidebar format in premium is much harder to follow, I can’t figure out the modified command I would need from *Login to see link
2. How to position on all sidebar pages to the left.

Can you assist?

Thanks.

p.s: temp setup is at *Login to see link pardon the dust.
