# Sidebar.php

 * I tried to add a flag counter and revolving globe to my side bar. Got the HTML
   codes for both items. Went to Appearance, Editor, sidebar.php and inserted/pasted
   the HTML codes for both items. I clicked on Update. It came back and said Update
   completed. But nothing changed. The two items are not there.
    Can you help?

 * Can you see the HTML when you view the source code? If so, it is a CSS issue,
   if not, then your single, page, post, category or archive template, etc., does
   not call the sidebar….a site link here may prove helpful…

 * First let me state that I am not a techical person! Yes I can see the HTML. I
   do not know what CSS is. I ended up just putting them in as a post. I have the
   alternate code for making the flag counter smaller and that is the code I pasted
   in the sidebar. Here is the page [http://blog.synthesisthree.com/](http://blog.synthesisthree.com/)

 * If you simply want to track site visitors, there are many good plugins which 
   are easy to set up for that. You could also try [Google Analytics](http://www.google.com/analytics/)
   and many hosts also provide some form of visitor tracking.
 * That all said, there appear to be two parts to this.
 * The upper part (wide area with flags)… That part is this (minus the paragraph
   tags – they will not be required):
 *     ```
       <a href="http://s07.flagcounter.com/more/SGYj"><img src="http://s07.flagcounter.com/count/SGYj/bg_FFFFFF/txt_000000/border_CCCCCC/columns_8/maxflags_248/viewers_0/labels_1/pageviews_1/flags_1/" alt="free counters" border="0"></a>
       ```
   
 * Try: the first part in the footer by including it in a text widget of middle 
   footer widget area and the globe part:
 *     ```
       <script type="text/javascript" src="http://je.revolvermaps.com/r.js"></script><script type="text/javascript">rm_f1st('0','220','true','false','000000','4od8mlz96cs','true','ff0000');</script><noscript><applet codebase="http://re.revolvermaps.com/j" code="core.RE" width="220" height="220" archive="g.jar">
       <param name="cabbase" value="g.cab" />
       <param name="r" value="true" />
       <param name="n" value="false" />
       <param name="i" value="4od8mlz96cs" />
       <param name="m" value="0" />
       <param name="s" value="220" />
       <param name="c" value="ff0000" />
       <param name="v" value="true" />
       <param name="b" value="000000" />
       <param name="rfc" value="true" /></applet></noscript>
       ```
   
 * in a text widget in the sidebar.
 * This way every page or post or archive will display this.
 * (Of course, then the post and the edit to sidebar.php can be removed)

 * I do believe that this is way over my head. A text widget?? I do not understand
   what is being said. I think it best that I just leave things as they are.
 * I so appreciate you’re helping. Thank you for your time and energy.
