Hello gang,

I’m currently in the process of putting my CSS/XHTML theme into WordPress. So far so good except when it comes to the sidebars.

When I designed my theme I made it so that each page would have a different "sidebar". Now that have in WordPress I can’t figure out how to achieve this.

So what I don’t want is the homepage/blog sidebar to appear on the about, portfolio etc., pages of my website. Can someone guide me in the right direction?

Thank you,
Jason Loucks

I think your going to use wordpress as a cms, in that the posts are for your blog, but your about may be a static page.

if so, you might want to look at making your own template page, like chris done on one of his tuts here

or in the page.php in your theme folder, just don’t add in the link to your sidebar.
