  I can’t get the Twenty Eleven theme to display any sidebars, even after I select that format in the “theme options.” I can change the color scheme and add footers, but I can’t make the sidebars show. What gives?

  Where are you trying this? The blog you mentioned is currently using Twenty Ten.

  Are you still having issues with this?

  I switched it to Twenty Ten in order to have a sidebar displayed. I just switched to Twenty Eleven, and chose my widgets again. Still no sidebar. Is this a glitch with the theme, or am I doing something wrong?

  That’s weird: Now the sidebar appears on just one of my pages, but none of the rest.

  The sidebar is appearing properly where it should: http://fpcwayne.wordpress.com/blognewsletter/

  By default, sidebars don’t appear with pages on Twenty Eleven. To add a sidebar to a page, edit the page and select the “Sidebar Template” from the Page Attributes box to the right.
