Sorry for the atrocious grammar and spelling. That is what I get for writing when I am exhausted.

Hi Christina,

I added a few widgets to the blog, as you suggested but the Asides feature is still there. Do you have any other suggestions?

Thank you.

Hi Janine, not Christina, but this is how I "got rid of" some sidebars that I don't want to use at this time:

I edited my sidebar.php file to "inactivate" some lines of code. To "inactivate" and not delete code you use <!-- before and --> after the code to not be used, but it is there if you ever want to use that particular sidebar feature again.

An example from my sidebar.php file:
<!--<div class="side_roll">
<h3>Blogroll</h3>
<ul>
<?php wp_list_bookmarks('title_li=&c ategorize=0'); ?>
</ul>
</div>-->

I started at the <div> that contained the sidebar widget that I wanted to inactivate and ended at the ending </div>. This inactivates the feature that I don't want to use right now, but like I said, I can remove the <!-- and --> and that feature will be back.

Your 'Asides' feature should (hopefully) be in there so you can identify it and inactivate it.

Or, you can just delete the code, but I do NOT recommend doing that.

HTH,

I forgot to add: don't forget to update/save the sidebar.php file after your changes. I've done this before and wondered why the heck it still looked the same. Doh!

That would be my guess, is that the code is in the sidebar.php. Also, look to see if there is a php file specifically for Asides (maybe asides.php). I tried downloading the theme, but kept getting an error trying to connect, so all I can do is guess.

Janine,

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.

Go into the file labeled left_sidebar.php and delete this

<h3>Asides</h3>

<ul class="ul-asides">

<p>Place for sideblog or ads</p>

<p>Nullam sit amet nisl ac erat luctus tincidunt. Etiam dui lectus, vulputate eget, dignissim ut, bibendum eget, odio. Donec dignissim sapien. Duis est. Aenean sit amet orci eget risus gravida tempor.</p>

</ul>

<h3>FlickR</h3>

<ul class="ul-flickr">

<img class="centered" src="http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/8693/2ho1.jpg" alt="Solitude" />

<br /><img class="centered" src="http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/2315/5in0.jpg" alt="Solitude" />

<br /><img class="centered" src="http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/7340/129jk9.jpg" alt="Solitude" />

</ul>


That should take care of your problem. email me if you get stuck or just want someone else to fiddle with it.

Christina, couldn't she also just comment out (<!-- -->) the Asides and Flikr just in case this area might be used in the future? Just saying, one never knows.

Jules,
True, but it's just as easy to delete those items and add them back in with widgets. Gives more options to place wherever you want them instead of just where the code insists.
