  I am using the Blissful Blog theme, but the sidebar and widgets aren’t showing up (it’s just a single column instead of the promised two). Help please?
  Blog url: http://theglitteredchameleon.wordpress.com/

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

  Not sure if this will help / if you’ve already tried it:

  Go to PAGES > ALL

  Quick Edit your ABOUT page
  On the Right, you’ll see TEMPLATE. Set to Default.

  When I did that, it seemed to apply it to my whole blog, not just the page.

  Hope it helps, if it doesn’t… hope you find a solution soon!

  Hey! Thanks for the advice :) sadly, it was already on default. :( I guess it’s just a glitch in the actual theme, or maybe it’s meant to be like that…? (although it does say that it has two columns!)

  Thanks anyway!

  The answer is found by reading the theme description http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/blissful-blog/
  Note this: The main column width is 760 except in the two-column layout where it’s 495

  Widgets
  Blissful Blog offers a sidebar template on single page, archive, and search views, and three footer widget areas on any page. You can assign widgets to each of these areas by going to Appearance -> Widgets.
