  Hi. Sorry to be a bit thick, but how do you add things to the right hand side of your blog page? For instance, I want to add a ‘Blogs I like’ as a heading then provide links to them underneath. I want to create a number of different headings then add links underneath them, but cannot seem to do ths. I have had a play around with the widgets and links, but still having no luck

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Create the links in Links > Add New.
  Then go to Appearance > Widgets and drag the Links widget to Sidebar.

  Thank you – I did try this, but what I wanted to do is create separate main headings with links below each one. Do I still do this via the Links widget? I tried earlier but it didn’t work. I shall keep trying!

  For “separate main headings”, you just need to arrange the links in link categories (in Links > Add New, when you create them, or in Links > All Links, to edit already created ones). The Links widget will display them automatically.
