I wish I could figure it out on my own… :/

…aaand again.

Anyone?

Hmm, anyone?

Ok, here’s my index.php file:

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<div id="Content">

    <?php if(have_posts()) : ?><?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

            <div class="post">

                <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

                <div class="entry">

                    <?php the_content(); ?>

                    <p class="postmetadata">

<?php _e('Filed under:'); ?> <?php the_category(', ') ?> <?php _e('by'); ?> <?php  the_author(); ?><br />

<?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?> <?php edit_post_link('Edit', ' | ', ''); ?>

                    </p>

                </div>

            </div>

    <?php endwhile; ?>

        <div class="navigation">
            <?php posts_nav_link(); ?>
        </div>

    <?php else : ?>

        <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
            <h2><?php_e('Not Found'); ?></h2>
        </div>

    <?php endif; ?>

</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

</div>

</body>
</html>

I’m looking at the line on top <?php get_sidebar(); ?>, do I need to change that to:

<?php get_sidebar(1); ?>

…and put:

<?php get_sidebar(2); ?>

…where I want the second sidebar to be?

Ok, So I edit my functions.php so that it says:

<?php
$args = array(
    'name'          => sprintf(__('Sidebar %d'), $i ),
    'id'            => 'sidebar-$i',
    'description'   => '',
    'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="BlockContent %2$s">',
    'after_widget'  => '</div>',
    'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widgettitle">',
    'after_title'   => '</h2>' );
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') ) register_sidebar($args);
?>

…but I think I may have broken something else, because not only do two sidebars not show up on the site or in the admin widget section, the only sidebar showing in the admin widget section is ‘Sidebar 0’ and if I add a widget to that, it doesn’t reflect it on the site.

Here’s my sidebar.php and sidebar-right.php code:

<div class="Left">

<?php if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar() ) : else : ?>

    <br />
    <div class="BlockContent">
    <h2><?php _e('Calendar'); ?></h2>
        <?php get_calendar(); ?>
    </div>
    <br />
    <div class="BlockContent">
    <?php wp_list_pages('depth=3&title_li=<h2>Pages</h2>'); ?>
    </div>
    <br />
    <div class="BlockContent">
    <h2><?php _e('Categories'); ?></h2>

    <?php wp_list_cats('sort_column=name&optioncount=1&hierarchical=0'); ?>
    </div>
    <br />
    <div class="BlockContent">
    <h2><?php _e('Archives'); ?></h2>

            <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>
    </div>
    <br />
    <div class="BlockContent">
    <?php get_links_list(); ?>
    </div>
    <br />
    <div class="BlockContent">
    <h2><?php _e('Meta'); ?></h2>

           <?php wp_register(); ?>
        <?php wp_loginout(); ?>
        <?php wp_meta(); ?>
    </div>

<?php endif; ?>

</div>

(The only different between the two is the div class on the first line.)

…and here’s the code in my functions.php:

<?php
$args = array(
    'name'          => sprintf(__('Sidebar %d'), $i ),
    'id'            => 'sidebar-$i',
    'description'   => '',
    'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="BlockContent %2$s">',
    'after_widget'  => '</div>',
    'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widgettitle">',
    'after_title'   => '</h2>' );
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') ) register_sidebar($args);
?>

Hmm, I just found the following code on this site: Creating Multiple Dynamic Sidebars

The code is:

<?php
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
register_sidebar(array('name'=>'sidebar1',
'before_widget' => '',
'after_widget' => '',
'before_title' => '<h4>',
'after_title' => '</h4>',
));
register_sidebar(array('name'=>'sidebar2',
'before_widget' => '',
'after_widget' => '',
'before_title' => '<h4>',
'after_title' => '</h4>',
));
?>

I can see where it’s mapping the two sidebars, but how to I edit this code to make it so the sidebars use the ‘BlockContent’ CSS rules?

Hmm, I did that, but now when I add a widget in the admin area, it doesn’t change on the page.

Did I need to put <?php register_sidebar( $args ); ?> somewhere?
