Hi,

Thanks for the help.

This is exactly what I am looking for! I downloaded the modified theme, but now what? Really not sure what to do next. I am not using the self hosted version of WordPress. I used the hosted service from WordPress.com. Does that make a difference?

Hi Scatterpost…
you can’t use that modified theme in wordpress.com. You can use that only if you have own hosting..

Thanks so much for this easy fix! I’ve been trying to modify the style sheet to display the new sidebar on the right instead of the left, but can’t seem to figure it out – any tips? I’d also love to know how to make the sidebar display on all pages (individual posts) instead of just the home page. ❤
