So before I muck up anything on functions.php, can you point me to the right place to add an additional sidebar, to leverage widgets/sidebar on various pages?
e.g. sidebar with social = left-sidebar
e.g. sidebar with comments = right-sidebar
eg. sidebar with ‘other’ = ‘other-sidebar’

If you want to display different content in the existing sidebars, depending on the page being displayed, use Widget Logic.

If you want to create a new widget area, besides the existing 5 ones (left and right sidebars and the three footer widget areas), this would be your starting point.
