In reply to: Different Sidebars for Different PagesDoodlebee,
Thank you…thank you…thank you! I was able to upload and install the sidebar widgets plugin…!!
Regarding conditionals, if I want my calendar widget to appear on only my blog page, can I set the conditional for that blog page and copy all of the code from the sidebars I do want, eliminating the code for the calendar on that blog page?
If so, then I don’t have to worry about building sidebars from scratch.
Thanks again, you have been so helpful!

In reply to: Links in ImagesDoodlebee,
I found the poblem. When I uploaded the image I had set the “link” to “Page.” I uploaded again, this time setting the “linl” to “none” and manually inserted the link code.
I also didn’t include the alt code, as my template uses a “title” code…so I learned how to create titles… 🙂
Thanks so much for your help!

In reply to: Different Sidebars for Different PagesDoodlebee,
I am indeed seeing what you described in my sidebar php. The thing is, my theme is not listed as one that utilizes the sidebar widgets plugin. Is it still possible to use the sidebar widgets plugin?
Where can I get that plugin?
In terms of using a conditional, my coding skills are negligible. I have two more questions:
You wrote that I should use the following conditional:
<?php if (is_page()) { ?>
How do I identify what page I’m setting the conditional for? Do I use the url for that page and place it between the empty parantheses?
How do you code how you want your sidebar to appear? Is there a manual somewhere that can help me? Or can I copy the code from a sidebar that I want elsewhere?
Sorry I’m asking these questions, but I am a major noob when it comes to this stuff.

In reply to: Links in ImagesI think I’ve done that already. Here’s what the current code looks like:
<img src=”http://keithfrancisstrohm.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/03/bladesinger_cover.gif” alt=”http://keithfrancisstrohm.com/novels/bladesinger/” title=”http://keithfrancisstrohm.com/novels/bladesinger/” />
When I click on the image, however, I’m taken to the following page:
http://keithfrancisstrohm.com/about/welcome/bladesinger_covergif-2/
I tooled around with the code for a bit, and even though I paste the http://keithfrancisstrohm.com/novels/bladesinger/ (my sub page href), every time I save the work, it automatically changes the href back to http://keithfrancisstrohm.com/about/welcome/bladesinger_covergif-2/
Any thoughts?
