  I applied the old photos theme and for some reason if I add widgets to the right sidebar they do not show up. The left sidebar works just fine but nothing shows up on the right. I have gone to appearance/widgets and dragged an available widget to the right sidebar but I get nothing. Also on my page it says I have categories and blogroll on the right sidebar but when I go to appearance/widgets those do not show up on the right sidebar. Any help please would be appreciated. Using WP 2.8.6

  Sorry, you are in the wrong forum and need to head over to http://wordpress.ORG/support/ as that is where self-hosted wordpress blogs using the software from wordpress.ORG are supported.

  These forums are for those hosted here on the wordpress.COM free hosting service and things here work differently and our answers typically will not work for you.

  If you do not know the difference, see this support document: http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ .

  I’m having trouble with several widgits on my right side bar. I had 2 items in the text bar and they were operating fine – weather pixie and clustrmaps. Then last night I was trying to add another and I lost all 3. And I can’t seem to restore them. I move the text box to the sidebar, add the code, and then the text bar goes back to the left.

  @willisweaver1: While on the widgets screen, click Screen Options and enable the “accessibility mode”; it will give you an Add tab next to each widget.
