I'm editing a site that I don't own and if I post the question when I'm logged in as the client—the client gets the email reply and not me.

I suppose I should create an user account for myself but thought this project would go quicker than it has.

They did purchase the custom design upgrade. Pretty nice.Thanks.

I knew I couldn't do it with CSS and hoped I was missing a setting that I should have set.

I'll switch to 2010 or some other theme that will give me that ability and hack from there. Thanks!

That would require hacking of the underling PHP script files, which we cannot do on free hosted WordPress.com blog .

So only the home page displays a sidebar in 2011? I was confused because there are theme settings for the pages and I chose one with sidebars thinking they would display site wide.

So if I want sidebars site wide perhaps I need to use 2010?

The site for this discussion is here: <http://blog.homeexchange.com/&#62;

I am customizing the 2011 theme and I am using the CSS customization editor.

The home page displays content within a "primary" div on the left and the sidebar displays on the right in a "secondary" div. But when I click the About link <http://blog.homeexchange.com/about/&#62; Not only is the sidebar missing. I don't see a 'secondary' div when I view the page with Firebug.

What's more is that if I click on either post from the home page example <http://blog.homeexchange.com/2011/07/07/15/&#62; the sidebar is missing on them too. I cannot find a way to select to display a sidebar and I don't see where it might be turned off. And if I saw that the secondary div even existed I would force the div to "display: block". But the div doesn't seem to exist.

Any ideas? Thanks.
