  Hi,

  Just wondered if I can have different widgets show on extra pages. I have added bunch of image widgets in the right sidebar of my homepage, which link to relevent external sites. On my shop page for example, I would like to include an image widget for the online gallery I work with. Is this possible?

  I really would have thought when activating a widget it would have a drop down to select which page? would that not be incredibly easy for all? or am I missing something?

  Thanks
  Levi

  Are you clear about the differences between a static page and a post?

  The inove theme allows for the display of widgets on selected pages – we can choose which ones. The other themes don’t have this feature. Some themes only display widgets on some pages and this post includes which ones do and which ones don’t http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/11/12/widgets-on-pages-or-single-posts/
