    How can I use widgets in different areas of my website? The reading I've done says I have to make a template page. I am unsure of how to do this, and a little nervous to change things without guidance.

    Thank you!

    Hi Lindsay

    I'm new to this but have been wondering the same thing. I came across this site that seems to address the question. I haven't tried it yet so can't say whether it is good or not. There is a free lite version also that seems to get good reviews.

    Cheers

    Hmm doesn't seem to like links. The first one was bloxwp (the full address starts with www and ends with com :)). The free version is Blox Lite which a quick Google should turn up.

    Thank you Alan! That is super helpful! I think that may be the plugin I am looking for. Have you used it?

    I haven't as yet. I'm struggling a bit with menu flashing problems in Genesis so might need to try a different framework for now unless someone knows a solution :s
