  Hi. To display the sidebar on a specific static page, you have to select the right option. Details here:

  Hi airodyssey, tnx for you reply very fast ;-)
  I read you link but I don’t understand…
  In “Theme Option” I selected as “Layout” “Content on right”, so I have sidebar on left. In my home show sidebar correctly but if I open one post by click on the title, the post page don’t show Sidebar.
  You can try this in my blog.
  Tnx

  No, it’s not in Theme Options, but on the post itself. I thought you would have found the right option yourself. Sorry for the confusion.

  Any static page can display the sidebar (Page editor > Page Attributes module > Template pulldown).

  In “Page editor” I know that I can select Template but in my posts there aren’t Attributes to set. Is becouse the posts are dynamic pages?

  “Chief drawback: … no sidebar on single posts (Twenty Eleven).”

  Sorry, I read “pages” and answered too quickly instead of just saying that there is no sidebar on individual posts.

  But I’m glad you found your answer.

  I would love if you could implement a feature to show the Sidebar on single post

  Are you aware that some search spiders stop indexing when they reach 100 – 113 links on any page? This opportunity to have professional looking pages and an overall website appearance without a lengthy column sidebar links on single post pages is one many bloggers welcome. They are are savvy to that fact that loading down every page in their blog with lengthy column sidebar links is not in their best interests. Moreover, there’s no need to feel deprived as there are 141 themes at WordPress.com and all the old fashioned themes have sidebars on every page.

  Hi timethief, you’re right but I think it should be subjected to offer the user the ability to have the functionality to show a “Post Sidebar”, other than the primary and customizable. The setting might be at disabled by default and activated from theme options. Do not let a thing or worse still advised to use other issues discredits an issue such as Twenty Eleven which is really nice.
