@rakesh solanki:- Don't forget that you'll need to increase the width of your layout in various areas in order to accomodate the new sidebar! (you'll need to change width values in your style.css file or custom.css file depending on your theme)

This is great, but not taking me all the way to where I need to be. Could you possibly advise?
I need to assign specific sidebars to specific pages. I would like to create more sidebars with this tutorial, and then reference them in certain templates I am creating for certain pages. So far I think I am on the right track. But it hasnt worked properly yet. I am wondering if I need to make any changes to my style.css file or not. Any help would be great.

theme: blue-diffusion has a functions.php file included I tried:

replacing that file w/a new functions.php including the code suggested file here. Failed.
altered the original code in functions.php to be identical to the suggested code here. Failed.

this is what the beginning of the code of the original functions.php file looks like, from lines 1-11:

”,
‘after_widget’ => ”,
‘before_title’ => ”,
‘after_title’ => ”,
));

function kubrick_head() {
$head = “\n

You said, "If your theme has only one sidebar, then most probably you will NOT find a file called functions.php in your theme folder." Yet, my theme has only one sidebar and a functions.php file.

Would Gladly and Highly appreciate anyones help.
