 * After I moved my blog to another installation and imported the content via the
   WP tools I cannot save / change sidebars for my old pages.
 * If a create a new page with the same template it’s not a problem but I cannot
   add a sidebar for an existing one. When I press update the setting appears blank
   and the sidebar won’t be displayed.
    Posts are not affected.
 * Could you please advice whats wrong or if there’s a workaround like adding a 
   custom field?
