  Hello,
  The archives widget for our blog doesn’t seem to be working. We’ve tried it a bunch of different ways. But, it’s still not showing up in the sidebar. This is the blog were working on. http://www.biyatuu.wordpress.com Any suggestions?

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

  Do you see the other widgets in your sidebar, but just not the Archives one, or are you having trouble getting your sidebar to show at all?

  Yes, the other widgets are there. Just not the Archives one. It looks like the homepage is listed as Homepage/Archives, but it doesn’t divide them by month. We wanted to use the Archives widget in the sidebar so that people can search by month because we post daily.

  very strange.

  Try going to your widgets page on your dashboard and opening up the Archives widget by clicking the small arrow in the upper right corner.

  Then click visibility. Did you accidentally add any criteria there that might hide the widget?

  Okay,

  Deleted the old widget, and then added it back without any visibility settings and now it works. Thanks a lot!
