    Hello! This is not a problem with the Sample Child theme per se, it is something I have broken myself but I thought I would try posting up here. Somehow my sidebar widgets are appearing twice on this site: beta.thedecorista.com. I have used Firebug and still can't figure out why this is happening, they only appear once on the widget dashboard. Any thoughts would be appreciated, no doubt I have mucked this up on my own but am having a hard time backtracking to see where I went wrong.

    You may not be the source of the problem. You are the second poster who experienced odd sidebar/widget behavior today. I'm guessing it might be a problem with the update to WordPress 3.6

    Oh, interesting! I will say that I was having this problem before updating to 3.6, I haven't really messed with the functions.php or any other files other than the CSS, so I actually replaced my old CSS with the sample child original today and am still having the issue, so I don't think it's in my CSS, will stay posted to see if it's some sort of known issue. Thanks so much for the response.

    @senordeer. Your CSS file says you are using the Sample Child Theme. I see the Primary Sidebar in your code twice. The theme has been customized in that there is a slider. So you should be checking your functions file again as the sidebar is showing up twice on your inside pages. If you need troubleshooting assistance, fill out the form on my website.
