<p>When you use WordPress as a CMS, it’s very common to create so many sidebars that when you try to manipulate each one on the Widgets page, you get totally crazy trying to drag and drop the widgets to the right sidebar. Because of this problem I did the Many Sidebars plugin that simply organize all your sidebars and let you work on each one solely.</p>


Many Sidebars

An interface addition for Widgets to let you increase the number of your Sidebars without lose your mind.

<p>A plugin that enables you to have dedicated content and/or widget sidebar for each specific page or post. For example, on a featured blog post you may want to place additional contact while on a calendar page you might want to place a calender widget or some text events or both.</p>
<h3>Widget Support</h3>
<p>Widget support is enabled by default and you do not have to add any code. The only recommended change is that you go to your template’s functions.php file and remove any coding containing a function similar to the one below.</p>
<pre><code>if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
    register_sidebar();
</code></pre>
<p>To enable widgets on a page or post, go to the manage screen and click ‘Add Widgets!’ to add or ‘Remove Widgets’ to remove.</p>
<h3>Notes</h3>
<p>This plugin is ONLY for WordPress 2.5+. It will not work with lower versions and may in fact corrupt the data in older versions. Please stay up to date with both WordPress and this plugin.</p>
<p>When using this plugin instead of Page Sidebars, this plugin will overwrite any of the widget configurations previously used. Also, do NOT use this script with Page Sidebars as it will lead to compatibility issues. Using this plugin will overwrite your other widget sidebars defined in your template. Proceed with caution.</p>
<p>For an older version of this plugin for WordPress versions 2.3.3 or lower, check out Page Sidebars.</p>


Core Sidebars

A small but useful plugin to have unique sidebars for each page/post.
