 * Hi Anthony,
    Love the theme I am using it on 20+ sites, a big thank you! I have
   an issue whenever I use the main sidebar and the page Sidebar, blog sidebar or
   single post sidebar – the widgets listed in the main sidebar display before those
   listed in the page, blog or single post sidebar. Unfortunately, I don’t have 
   a public site I can direct you to at the moment.
 * When all 4 widget areas have widgets in them and I visit a single page, an archive
   page or a single post I see the main sidebar widgets and then the widgets for
   the respective sidebar area. This does not impact the home page.
 * Any help would be appreciated.

 * Hi,
 * Thanks! I’m glad you’ve found the theme so useful. That’s great to hear and I
   appreciate the kind words.
 * If I’m understanding you correctly, this seems to be working as it was intended.
 * Any widgets in the ‘Main Sidebar’ will appear on all posts and pages (except 
   the optional Homepage template, which has its own widgets)
 * Any widgets in the ‘Blog Sidebar’ will appear in the sidebar on the blog and 
   archive pages only (underneath the Main Sidebar widgets)
 * Any widgets in the ‘Single Post Sidebar’ will appear in the sidebar on single
   posts only (underneath the Main Sidebar widgets)
 * Any widgets in the ‘Page Sidebar’ will appear in the sidebar on pages only (underneath
   the Main Sidebar widgets)
 * This allows you to include widgets only on certain pages such as on the Single
   Post page, for example.
 * If you simply want the same widgets to appear in all your sidebars, just add 
   them to the ‘Main Sidebar’ and forget about the other sidebars.
 * If you want certain widgets to display on the blog archive page and different
   ones to appear on the Single Post page, that’s when you’d use a combination of
   the other sidebar areas.
 * I hope this has clarified things.

 * OK, thank you for the clarification, this makes sense. How would I go about changing
   the order of the sidebars so the main sidebar renders below the page specific
   widgets. So the page, post or archive widgets load above the main sidebar widgets?
 * Thanks and keep up the good work!

 * If you wish to change the order, you can do that easily within sidebar.php.
