   I just uploaded a newly created theme that is widget-ready.

   sidebar.php has this code included:

   <?php if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar_left') ) : else : ?>

   But... when I go to Presentation then Widgets I get "No Sidebars Defined", etc. etc.

   Does this have something to do with the fact that I'm using a 3 column theme (with two sidebars on the right)?

   Does anyone know how I can get my widgets working? Thanks in advance for any assistance!

   "Widgetized" themes need to have a functions.php file in their folder, if I remember well.

   I do have a functions.php file. Is there code that I should add to it? And if so, where do I insert it?

   Thanks!

   yes...u need to add something like this...
   <?php
   if (function_exists(’register_sidebars’)) register_sidebars(1, array(’before_widget’ => ”,’after_widget’ => ”));
   ?>

   search google for widgetising wordpress
