  Hi @sandysalazar132, on Dara, the static front page will not show sidebar widgets, but it will show footer area widgets. The Blog page, and static pages other than your Home page, when set to the default template, will show the sidebar widgets.

  If you have sidebar widgets that you also wish to show on the home page, you can add those to the footer widget areas and then set those widgets to show only on the home page so that on pages with the sidebar, you will not have duplicates.
