 * So I am trying to put 3 widget ready Sidebars into a single sidebar theme called
   OmniBlock.
 * My url is: [http://www.violetfolklore.com/wordpress](http://www.violetfolklore.com/wordpress)
 * Here is what I have done. I started by creating the files: sidebar.php, sidebar2.
   php, and sidebar3.php. Inside of each of these files I included:
 * Sidebar.php
    <div>
    -  <?php if ( function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) && dynamic_sidebar() ) : else:?
      >
       <?php endif; ?>
 * </div>
 * Sidebar2.php
    <div>
    -  <?php if ( function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) && dynamic_sidebar(2) ) : else:?
      >
       <?php endif; ?>
 * </div>
 * Sidebar3.php
    <div>
    -  <?php if ( function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) && dynamic_sidebar(3) ) : else:?
      >
       <?php endif; ?>
 * </div>
 * Then I edited the functions.php file to include:
 * <?php
    if ( function_exists(‘register_sidebars’) ) register_sidebars(3); ?>
 * Then I call them from the index with:
 * <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/sidebar.php’); ?>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH.‘/
   sidebar2.php’); ?> <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/sidebar3.php’); ?>
 * It seems like that should do it! My syntax error message is:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENDIF in /home/theglean/public_html/violetfolklore.
   com/wordpress/wp-content/themes/omniblock/sidebar2.php on line 7
 * If you can help me out. I would be most appreciative!!!

   up on the home page.
