Sidebar displays on homepage: how do I get the sidebar on all pages?
-
The widgets that are embedded in my sidebar are cool. but they only display one the homepage. How do I make it so that the sidebar appears on all pages, like when reading a blogpost?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Not every theme designed to display images on every page in the blog. That said you are using an very old retired theme so it is probably designed to allow that. Widgets now have “visibility” settings so we can select which pages they display on. See here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/#widget-visibility

YIKES! Wrong word.
I typed: display images on every page in the blog
I meant to type: display sidebars on every page in the blog -
Thanks for this. I made the attempt. Take for instance the Twitter Timeline Widget, I sooo much want that on the sidebar when someone clicks to read a blog post. So I went and selected “Category” and “Blog Posts” in the visibility box (thanks again for that lead), but the Twitter timeline disappeared from the home page sidebar, and when the blogpost was opened, it still was not on the side bar. Maybe it’s a sidebar issue rather than a widget?

I apologize for not responding sooner as I was away. I do see your twitter timeline widget on all pages in your blog now using Chrome 36 on Windows 7 and I assume you have resolved this issue. If that’s not the case please post again and we will call in Staff.

Thanks for the reply! I really appreciate it. When the home page opens, the sidebar looks just the way I want it to. But click on an article and the sidebar changes. Instead of the sidebar on the homepage which starts with a search field, followed by twitter feeds and others: what I get is a sidebar display that says “Archived Entry” … I don’t what the sidebar to read “Archived Entry.” I want that to go away and use the sidebar that’s on the the home page. Currently the last blog post I made “Medical and Science Research with a Cultural Twist” is displayed at the top of the home page. But if you click on it, to read the rest of the blog entry, the sidebar issue comes up.
Thanks again for helping me.Joe Krulder

Hi TImethief,
I haven’t heard back from you on the sidebar issue. BUT, now I have a new issue: in preview mode my audio link with audiomack.com appears, but when published, only the link shows, no more embed. Why?
Hoping you can help!!!Joe

Hi Joe,
I tagged this thread for a Staff follow-up. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting. -
How do I subscribe to a thread. All I have is a box to check “Notify me of followup posts via e-mail.” Another note: at the top of our conversation – or at the top of this page is another note stating “You are subscribed to this topic.” I have not seen any one else in on this conversation other than your terrific advice and my fails. Very confused.

Hi Joe,
It looks like the theme that you’re on doesn’t support sidebars on its posts. I’m sorry for that. If you’d like to have a sidebar on your posts then you’ll need to go with a different theme.
In regard to your audiomack recording, it looks like there was a glitch of some sort when you published it, because when I went in and just clicked “update,” it republished and your player is now showing online without any issue!
Let me know if there’s anything else you needed!
