    Would someone mind pointing me towards where to add in some code to show the sidebar on the homepage? Thanks.

    The home page is designed without any sidebars. If you wanted to replace the latest posts section with a static front page, then you could have a sidebar since all single pages have sidebars.

    I’m looking to have the latest posts complete with the sidebar, though. From what I can tell it should be a simple matter of dropping in some script to call up the sidebar on the homepage as with any other page, I just can’t figure out where that code should go.

    It isn’t that simple. Since the theme is not designed for a sidebar on the homepage, just dropping in the function get_sidebar() won’t work. The main content area is controlled by a function that checks what page it is on and sets the width accordingly. If you add in the sidebar call, you will also have to modify this function so that the width is correct. And it would most likely need to be modify for all the pages.

    Well, thank you for your response and time anyway.
