    Well, it has been rebuilt and I’m considering some additions as well but for the time being this post is closed.

    Well, no quick replies. I guess I’m now building a child theme based on twentyeleven and saving what I can from the old site.

    Oh well. I’m sure it’ll be the best scenario in the long run but it’s going to be a long weekend.

    If anyone has anything helpful for this undertaking other than the info listed on wordpress.org’s docs for theme help, fire away.

    By the way, the site is at http://www.level70design.com.

    If you need any further code examples or info, please let me know. I just need this working again, even if it’s just held together with duct tape and wires…

    Thanks, I think see what you’re saying. In function.php and the associated sidebar file (sidebar_custom.php) I use the full file name (sidebar_custom) but when calling it via the actual page I just use ‘custom’. Am I reading that correctly?

    Does the separator matter? I mean, using sidebar-custom.php instead of sidebar_custom.php? Do I have a syntax error as well?

    I’m haivng a similar issue…

    Frumph, my sidebar pages are named like adelpha’s. I have some pages with like names (gallery, etc.) so I named the sidebar pages “sidebar-gallery” just to differentiate.

    My issue is, the various sidebars are showing up in the widget page and I’m populating them with different widgets, but no matter what I put in, they all have the same widgets.

    function.php:

    if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') ) {
    	register_sidebar(array('name'=>'sidebar_default',
    		'before_widget' => '<li>',
    		'after_widget' => '</li>',
    		'before_title' => '<h2>',
    		'after_title' => '</h2>',
    	));
    	register_sidebar(array('name'=>'sidebar_gallery',
    		'before_widget' => '<li>',
    		'after_widget' => '</li>',
    		'before_title' => '<h2>',
    		'after_title' => '</h2>',
    	));
    	register_sidebar(array('name'=>'sidebar_about',
    		'before_widget' => '<li>',
    		'after_widget' => '</li>',
    		'before_title' => '<h2>',
    		'after_title' => '</h2>',
    	));
    }

    sidebar_default:

    <?php 	/* Widgetized sidebar, if you have the plugin installed. */
    					if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar('sidebar_default') ) : ?>

    page.php:

    <?php get_sidebar('sidebar_default'); ?>

    sidebar_gallery & gallery.php have the same code with the names replaced accordingly (gallery.php being a custom template page).

    No matter what widgets I add in to those sidebars, every one of them is a copy of sidebar_default.php.

    What am I doing wrong here?!
    Thanks in advance!

    The code above works great for formatting my page links but it’s listing every page on my site. Previously, I had this code:

    <?php
      if($post->post_parent)
      $children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->post_parent."&echo=0");
      else
      $children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->ID."&echo=0");
      if ($children) { ?>
      <ul>
      <?php echo $children; ?>
      </ul>
    <?php } ?>

    It would only show child pages of the parent page you were on, even on other child pages of that parent.

    Is there a way to merge the two and get the formatting of your code and the child pages from the code I posted? Everything I try just makes the page list disappear completely.

    Thanks in advance for your help on this!
