Widgets & Sidebar Problem

  • Unknown's avatar

    My widgets/sidebar aren’t appearing on any of my pages, other than the custom home page – how do I add them to each page? I am not a proficient user so a step by step guide would be most helpful.

  • Howdy,

    For pages, there is one small setting that needs to be made in each to add the widget to the side.

    Edit the page, by clicking on Pages in your site’s dashboard (at http://guernseyskatepark.wordpress.com/wp-admin ), then clicking on a title.

    On the right-hand side, you’ll see a “Templates” options. Change that to “Sidebar Template” and click the blue “Update” button (where “Publish” was when you first drafted the page).

    That’s it!

    Here is our support document about that section of the page editor, so you can see via screenshots where to edit the template option: http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-attributes/

    Also, I went ahead and changed your Membership page to this style so you can have an example of what the setting would look like after you’ve made the change.

    Welcome to WordPress.com! Please let us know if there’s anything we can do or any questions we can answer!
