    hi everyone...

    I really like the autofucus theme, but i have some problems with the widgets, i don't know how can show them, i go to the widgets, and activate the categories and search, and the options don't show.

    And I need this option.

    If you drag a widget to a sidebar it should display the available options automatically. If it doesn't do that you can open the options pane of a particular widget in a sidebar by clicking on the little arrow to the right of the widget's title.

    Go to your widgets screen and then at the upper-right, click "Screen Options". Then at the upper-left, click "Enable accessability mode". Then add the widgets again and see if that helps.

    The sidebars are only visible if you change the default template of your page. I'll quote the author's instructions here:

    Sidebar

    The sidebar for this theme is included as a template for use on an ‘Archives’ page. To activate the sidebar, create a page called ‘Archives’ for example and select the Archives Page Template. This template pulls in the 2 sidebars that sit right on top of each other.

    Hopefully this helps

    It seems to me that the Autofocus theme is not really a CMS friendly theme. My website uses the theme switcher and I need all pages on my website to be able to show the same content no matter what theme website users have selected in the theme switcher menu. I just don't see how the Auto focus theme would work well as a CMS friendly theme without some manual tweaking. Would my site's page templates stay applied even if a user changes the theme with a theme switcher in the sidebar?

    to enable it in post,
    just add
    <?php get_sidebar() ?>
    in single.php.

    exact positioning depends where you insert it...
