   Hi,

   I can insert the following code in my sidebar.php file:

   <?php $sidebar = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Sidebar', $single = true); ?>
   <?php if($sidebar !== '') { ?>
   <?php echo $sidebar; ?>
   <?php } else { echo ''; } ?>

   And the values in my Sidebar custom field display. But when I insert this code into the PHP widget instead, it simply does not get the post meta data. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

   Add global $post; to the top of your code.
