Problematic Volcano affects only the declaration of blockers. Creatures can still be put onto the battlefield blocking creatures on the other side, abilities of creatures can target creatures on the other side, and so on.

11/12/2019·wotc

If a creature somehow has no side chosen for it (perhaps because it’s not normally a creature but becomes one temporarily, or because Problematic Volcano’s enters-the-battlefield ability didn’t resolve) it can block and be blocked by creatures on either side.

11/12/2019·wotc

The designation of left or right matters only for one Problematic Volcano. If another enters the battlefield, the designations for the first won’t matter.
