 * I don’t think I had seen “force replace” until a couple of updates back. What
   is the difference?
 * Thank you,
    Jose

 * “Forced replace” is a new option that makes it possible to replace a host sidebar
   with a single sidebar instead of letting sidebars merge. Read more about it in
   the FAQ here: [http://www.intox.dk/en/plugin/content-aware-sidebars-en/faq/](http://www.intox.dk/en/plugin/content-aware-sidebars-en/faq/)

 * Ah, I see, thank you. I did come across an instance before where two sidebars
   were replacing the host sidebars and both were displayed.
 * Good addition to the options.
 * Thank you,
 * Jose
