  im using the theme twenty eleven and trying to add a widget to the main sidebar. i added an image and a recent posts widget. these are showing up on my “blog” page but not on any other pages. is there a setting somewhere that controls where the widgets show up? i can’t find it.

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

  Hi there,

  Yes! You can do this!

  This is a change you will make on the individual pages themselves. You’ll need to go to the page editor of any page you’d like to change to the Sidebar template, and under Page Attributes, select “Sidebar Template” under “Template”

  Here’s an example page from your blog:
  https://wavehuggers.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=7&action=edit

  You’ll need to select Sidebar template and then click “update” – and repeat for any page you’d like to see that sidebar on!

  I hope that helps!
