    Hi,

    My Sidebar shows up on my home page and About page. However, when someone clicks on a solitary post it doesn't show up. How can I get my sidebar to appear at the side of my posts?

    You'll need to edit the single.php file in your theme to add the sidebar and adjust the css to change the content width.

    Can you explain how to me how I edit it once I get to edit themes and single.php? It all looks like jibberish to me

    add he get_sidebar() function in your single.php at the bottom, before the get_footer(). You can simply refer the default theme and make changes according to it.

    Also, which theme are you using? we can help you if you provide you the theme link..

    I use WordPress Default 1.6. I don't want to change anything until I'm sure I don't screw it up!

    Good!!

    Then take a back up and then you can edit the theme.. :)

    However, still look at the coedx and then make changes..
