What I'm hoping to do is change my post page to a similar design as 500px.com. See this page for example: http://500px.com/photo/4274374?from=editors The sidebar (although I'm not sure it was created as a sidebar) on the right contains details and info specific to that page, yet has social networking links below it. I'm hoping to to display details in a similar manner on the top, and then include my widgets (social networking, categories etc) below it. Any idea how to do that? Thanks. Thanks for this tutorial.

Do you create a new "header2.php" file? It doesn't explain the step of making the different sidebar or header/footer. Thanks :) Hi there, I think I’m missing something.

If you knew how long I had searched to find this - I even installed a plugin that supposedly did this (it didn't). Such a simple solution. Thankyou!!

My site (www.freebiejeebie.co.uk) is fine with the new footer being there, but when you go to the section I have activated the new code I get the following results: http://www.freebiejeebie.co.uk/category/Terminology/ As you can see there are 2 footers printed which is obiously not what I wanted :) Any views as to why this would happen would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Stu Hi Sarah,

Your question is not exactly related to this post, but I found that plugin and thought it might be something for you. Good luck!
