  I have added the RSS 1 widget to my sidebar and have saved it, but it has not shown up for several days. It should show up just above the calendar. What can I do?

  My blog is nopaneblog.wordpress.com.

  Did you put the URL of the feed you wanted to display into the RSS widget?

  That was the problem. It’s too bad that you can’t put your own RSS feed into the widget, though.

  By the way, I am impressed with the FAQ on WordPress. The FAQ pages on the platform we’re moving from were nearly worthless. It appears I can get an answer for nearly any question with the WordPress FAQ. Very cool.

  Yes, it’s chocked full of useful information.

  You can put a link to your feed in a text widget in your sidebar. From the FAQ’s: http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/10/23/put-your-feed-in-your-sidebar/
