  Hi

  Can I place different widgets on each page?

  For example, I only want “Authors” and “Category Cloud” and “Follow Blog” to appear on my Posts page; I’d like to put a blank text widget, so no widgets appear, on all the other pages.

  Thanks, Mick

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  No you can’t. Widgets are usually site-wide though there are a few themes that have exceptions. See > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2011/02/26/sidebars-and-other-widget-areas/ CSS editing may be possible if each page type has its own CSS class. However, I don’t help with CSS editing so I can’t say whether or not that is the case with Twenty Ten. I’ll flag this thread so it’s moved to the CSS Forum where you can get a definitive answer.

  For regular static pages you have created (about, services, etc.), simply open those in the page editor and from the “template” pulldown in the attributes module, select “full-width/no sidebar” and update the page.

  The sidebar will then only appear on post related pages (blog, categories, tags and archives pages).

  Thanks for your help too, timethief.
