   I use Wordpress as a CMS.

   Options/Read with static home page called Home and blog page called News.

   Sidebar.php is widgetized

   On blog page, (News) I have a sidebar like this:

   Pages
   Home
   News
   Products

   Categories
   General

   Recent posts
   Post 3
   Post 2
   Post 1

   On Home page and on Products page I would like to have a simple sidebar like this:

   Home
   News
   Products

   Home page id is 3
   Products page id is 5

   In page.php

   Instead of:
   <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

   I add:
   

   <?php if (is_page(3) || is_page(5)) {include ('sidebar-2.php'); }
   else {include ('sidebar.php'); }
   ?>

   I create sidebar-2.php like this:
   

   <div id="left">
   <ul>
   <?php wp_list_pages(); ?>
   </ul>
   </div>

   Sidebar.php begin like that:
   

   <div id="left">
   <?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar')
   || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>
   
   other codes for Archives, categories, etc...
   </div>

   Sidebar of News page goes correctly but I have two problems in other pages.

   Instead of sidebar needed with only:

   Home
   News
   Products

   I have:

   Pages
   Home
   News
   Products

   Also, the content of the page goes in the sidebar under the page list.

   Are you able to tell me what I did wrong and what can I do to fix it?

   Thank You

   If you use a template tag - like wp_list_pages - read its documentation.

   Thanks moshu,

   My problems are fixed.

   Information for other users:

   I change
   

   <ul>
   <?php wp_list_pages(); ?>
   </ul>

   by
   

   <ul>
   <?php
   wp_list_pages('title_li='); ?>
   </ul>

   The title of the sidebar disappears like I need and the content of the page goes to the right place.
