 * I would like to display widget on a single post ONLY is that post is assigned
   to a certain category. Is this possible using conditional logic?
 * For instance, if my site is about “New Cars”, I want an ad for Chevy to only 
   be displayed on posts assigned to my “Chevy” category and not “Ford” and vice
   versa.

 * Im very new at everything web programing, but you should be able to do this.
 * Try this inside your loop:
    <?php $id = $query->post->cat; if ($id == (category
   goes here)){ ?> <div id=”chevy_add”> code for chevy add </div> }

 * conditional tags [http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags](http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags)
 * for instance, use:
 * `in_category()`
 * possibly in context of a conditional widget plugin, such as [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/)
