   I am trying to add the cumulus plugin under "Press" in my categories on the left side of page: http://hopetowncoffeehouse.com/news/

   I have looked everywhere thru my ftp files to find news.php or relevant page to edit but no luck.

   When I view source the news page is referred to as "news" but where is it located?

   thanks,

   There is no news.php: it's a category

   It's a widget, which can be added through the admin page

   I have tried adding it as a widget...but it does not appear anywhere in a sidebar.

   If I add a new category under Press, what do I call it and where do I insert [wp-cumulus] ?

   You cannot do that through a category. A page could work, but then it'll show up in your menu bar on top.

   Maybe your sidebar.php doesn't support widgets, in that case you have to make the necessary changes in siderbar.php yourself (as per instruction of the plugin)

   Hi Peter, I don't see anything specific in their readme.txt but it also doesn't help that I open up sidebar.php and have no idea what I am looking at!
   Thanks anyway.

   I enabled (Use compatibility mode?) in the plugin settings and after adding it as a widget to sidebar it appears now at the bottom of my two category pages..not in the sidebar of the main News page.

   Any ideas?
