   Probably a complete newbie question and yes. i have searched but the nature of information is that it's there but...

   When i choose a widget for the sidebar the stuff i've already put in the sidebar disappears, do i have to build the sidebar completely within the widget editor, so eg putting the Author in as a text field.

   I want to add recent posts to the sidebar already have but can find no easy function like wp_get_posts to simply add into my sidebar.php

   My WordPress site

   being a bit of a hacker, i resolved my question thus;

   i moved the
   /* Widgetized sidebar, if you have the plugin installed. */

   bit down so i now have a static sidebar followed by a widgetised (horrible horrible word) sidebar.

   happiness
