  I am using Twenty Eleven theme. Since it does not have a sidebar for post pages I want to use CSS to arrange the page to accommodate widgets that I have to manually place.

  Here is an example page:

  http://superiornews.wordpress.com/2014/04/17/budget-concerns-and-corporate-board-minutes/

  I want a series of widgets called quick links to appear according to category of posts. I would like them on the right side.

  The only option I seem to have is to place the widget in one of the footer sections, but the problem I am having is that the exact placement of the widget (height from margin top) seems to vary according to web browser. I did not run into this problem when placing the logo on the header or the select category drop down menu on the header. Why do I have it with widget “text-26”?

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

  seems that for some reason, too, the placement is all messed up on other pages. press the NEXT link to go to the article entitled SCAM which is also a Finance category and “text-26” is way up on top of the page??????

  The CSS code in the Footer section 1 is:

  #text-26 {
  /* =Finance Department Administration sidebar */
  position: absolute;
  margin-top: -1525px;
  margin-left: 525px;
  width: 300px;
  z-index: 9999;
  }

  Is there a way to place the code in the main sidebar even if the theme post pages does not recognize the sidebar?
