Title: Sidebar Widgets Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Sidebar Widgets * [awmyth](https://wordpress.org/support/users/awmyth/) * (@awmyth) * [19 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-widgets-1/) * Hi I have a blog on wordpress domain. I decided to export it to my own domain, on a differet server. I downloaded and installed WordPress (Version 2.0.5)without any problems. I also downloaded my favourite theme, Chaotic Soul 1.0.1. What I really missed was the sidebar widgets control under presentation. (On the wordpress domain, I had the same theme with the sidebar widgets’ control, so I tried to install it) * I downloaded and installed the Sidebar Widgets plug in, following the instuction from Aotomatic “Widgetising your themes”. I have also installed the accompanying script files in appropriate folders as directed and activated the plug in. * But I am still not getting the Sidebar Widgets option under presentation. * Could anyone advice me what I am doing wrong?

It did not work. * Then I created a functions.php with this code in it. * * Thats the state at the moment * [golddave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/golddave/) * (@golddave) * [19 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-widgets-1/#post-494715) * I don’t think Chaotic Soul is a ‘widgetized’ theme. In other words it doesn’t have widget support built in. You have 2 options: 1 – Either ‘widgetize’ it yourself. (More info here: [http://automattic.com/code/widgets/themes/](http://automattic.com/code/widgets/themes/)). 2 – Look for a different theme with widget support. * – Dave Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) The topic ‘Sidebar Widgets’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [siderbar](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/siderbar/) * [widgets](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/widgets/) * 3 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [golddave](https://wordpress.org/support/users/golddave/) * Last activity: [19 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-widgets-1/#post-494715) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
