  I cannot add a widget to my sidebar. I can drag and drop it but the side bar does not appear. I’ve cleared the cache and emptied and re-added a few widgets and mades sure that the visibility is correct but the side bar is not appearing and I cannot for the life of me figure out why?

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

  Hi there,

  Each theme has different widget areas that may appear in different places in the theme. In the Mixfolio theme you’re using, the sidebar appears on individual posts and pages, like your post here:

  However, Mixfolio doesn’t show that sidebar on your site’s front page. You can see how that works in the Mixfolio demo here: http://mixfoliodemo.wordpress.com/

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)
