Sidebar not showing up

  • Hello,
    I am using a template file and it is working fine for my page, however I just added:

    <?php get_sidebarhome(); ?>

    where there is a sidebarhome.php file with code for testing… yet the sidebar turns up blank!

    Can someone help? Please!

    Ok, now, the items that are showing up in the sidebar-home are just a duplicate of the sidebar.php as I was testing functionality… now that it works – with alchymyth’s help, any chance I can get some pointers on how to go about building the specific content I need in the sidebar-home? I think there are two ways to go about it – using the widgets editor, but I think that only creates one default sidebar… and then the other is by including code from scratch – is that correct?

    Thanks!
