Not only do posts no show up, the archives, categories and tags do not work. However, posts do show up when you use the search function. The static pages work normally. I made an export of my blog, and everything is still present in it.

Not all themes are the same. I have one client that wanted the sidebars to show on the main page, but not on the single post page at all. His reasoning was that he did not what any distractions when the visitor was reading the post. I've also got clients that have micromanaged widgets to a fault and each individual page has different widgets on it (these are all self-hosted so I can do that easily enough).

Theme designers also have their own ideas as to what is going to be included and what is not on pages and posts. That is one of the reasons that there are so many themes out there. Everyone is an individual (designer and user) and each has different ideas as to how they want things.

but can you suggest which theme might be most-similar ... i have spent ages looking through them and arrived at the one currently used which is not great and i am loathe to go through all the custom css again as it is not my technical forte.

OR

is there a specific tag that i can search for that would let me know that a specific theme supports the right hand bar full functionality?

There is no way to edit things to have the sidebar appear on the single-post pages. That would require access to, and hacking of the underlying theme PHP script files and we cannot do that here.

I used to use the excellent CONNECTIONS theme by vanillamist.com. I spent a long time doing custom CSS on this. I even made the custom CSS available on this forum (how kind of me!). Unfortunately it took me a long time to realise that when a user goes to a particular page (ie NOT the home page) the right hand bar functionality disappears and is repalced by "Archived Entry" information.

This archived entry info is shown here when you preview my site using the connections theme:

http://blog.kothea.com/2009/11/12/pitching-winning-managing-business-for-interior-designers/?preview=1&template=pub/connections&stylesheet=pub/connections

However if you go to the author's website/blog you will see that she retains the functionality of the right hand bar. As shown here

http://vanillamist.com/blog/?p=110 nullRe: connections theme by vanillamist - right hand side bar

That is what I want to do.

Help pleae.
