Simplest way to have same text on several pages side area
-
I am looking to put a hyperlinked Table of Contents on selected static pages. I would like that to be on the right side of the pages. I cannot edit the php from the Android WP app. Can I do this with plain HTML or must I use the widgets? How can I activate the sidebar text for the desired pages only without editing the page.php? How can I tell each desired page to show the text? Can I do this on the HTML tab of that page? I don’t want to use plugins.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
Can I do this with plain HTML or must I use the widgets?
You may use HTML in a text widget. But rather than creating the link list in the widget, it would be easier to create the list in a page or post in visual mode using the link tool in the editing icon bar, and then switch to text mode to copy the list to be pasted into a text widget.
If you have a lot of pages, you might consider using list pages shortcode to create your list. The List Pages Shortcode support page includes available customizing options.
Alternately, you could use a pages widget. You can exclude pages which you don’t want to appear in the widget as described in the Pages Widget support page.
How can I activate the sidebar text for the desired pages only without editing the page.php?
For the options I’ve mentioned above, editing page php is unnecessary.
How can I tell each desired page to show the text?
In each widget, regardless of what type of widget is used, you may use the Visibility options to show the widget on selected pages, or to hide the widget from selected pages.
Can I do this on the HTML tab of that page?
Unnecessary. See above.

Can I do this on the HTML tab of that page?
