 * in other words, if I want to ADD a widget, it wont let me… it will put it in 
   the Active widgets column, but it does not appear on the page. And vice versa…
   if I want to remove one, and take it out of the Active column, it stays on the
   page. The Widgets tab on the Design tab has no control over the widgets for some
   reason… Even if I edit the sidebar.php… example, I just removed the Meta tab 
   from the sidebar.php, and it took it off the blog. But if I go to the Widgets
   tab and put the Meta widget back in the active column, it does not show back 
   up on the blog.

 * No, Im simply trying to gain the use of organizing the widgets in the Design 
   tab… Right now, all of the widgets are active (even tho thats not how I have 
   it setup in the Design tab)
 * How would the sidebar.php have been altered in the upgrade?

 * still having this problem… I’ve reverted back to 2.3.3 but the issue still exists…
   I then went BACK to 2.5, but the issue is STILL there… I installed 2.5 on another
   domain I own, and the widgets work fine… How can I fix MY site?
