    I'm new to WP Development. I developing a site for someone else. I'm using Static Pages. I would like to allow the client to edit the content in the sidebar. Is this possible? What is the vocabulary for this? Any plugins/widgets for this?

    If it's something very simple, you can put a text widget in the sidebar and the client can edit the content in there. Just bear in mind there will be no WYSIWYG editor, so if they need to do anything like add links or make text bold they will have to type the HTML code.

    Alternatively, you could set up a second content block in the sidebar using a plug-in like Multiple content blocks.

    Great! If you would please mark this thread as "resolved" (drop-down menu in the right column) it would be appreciated. Helps everyone keep better track of whose issues are still outstanding. Thanks!
