 * I drag the widget word over to sidebar but nothing happens…I have no widgets 
   on theme page…no matter how much content I have I can’t get starting publishing
   because I have no way to include categories, archived posts, etc.

 * what theme are you using?
 * does the theme show default widgets in a sidebar?
 * can you post a link to your site to illustrate the problem?
