widgets placement

    When I add more than 1 widget to a Global or Primary area of my site, it appears when I view the page – the next time I ‘view’ it, it has gone?

    What am I missing here? and can someone explain what all the areas are – such as Primary, Secondary, etc. I know Global means it goes on every page. There is no area that simply states “sidebar”

    Thanks, Joan

    “Primary”, “Secondary” are widgets/areas slots within the sidebar(s). For example, the Primary slot is located in the single.php file, ie will only display on the posts page.

    Make sure to “save” when you add a widget to any areas

    Thanks Pierrick, however that still isn’t very clear to me.

    As I said I added and saved the widgets to Global area and it displayed when I viewed the site but the second time I viewed the site, the widget didn’t display and wasn’t in the Global area when I checked. I also tried to do this in the Secondary area, same thing happened.

    Very confusing. So when you say the posts page, do you mean the page that I have named “Blog”?
