  Hi there,

  In order to do this, you will want to use the Display WordPress Posts widget instead of the Recent Posts widget. Details on setting up the Display WordPress Posts widget can be found here:

  Display WordPress Posts Legacy Widget

  Let me know if that is what you were looking to accomplish!

  Thanks! Figured it out. How can I make the two sidebars disappear on certain pages?

  You can use the Widget Visibility settings shown here to adjust where your widgets display:

  Let me know if that helps!
