Well, the problem with that is that it doesn’t display anything on the side bar. But the idea is there.

Hey John.

Actually, I read your thread about this, and yeah, it didn’t really resolve anything. Basically your dilemma is the same as mine. What I think is the problem is that a new element will have to be implemented for each page or post in the DB (database). That might need a major plugin; to store extra information for a topic in regards to the sidebar.

As you have pointed out, I’m not sure if this is possible currently either.

I might go and ask one of my friend PHP gurus and see if they have any experience with WP. I don’t want to give you false hope though, if I don’t respond back I’m probably off skinning a forum. Haha, good luck!

Well, I was thinking this description to be say, more like a Rating kinda thing. Like, say I have a movie review or summary in the main content page, but I want to be able to put some ratings on the side (Plot 5/10, Dialogue 9/10…)

Or, I was also thinking, like implementing respective asides for each page so that I can post miniupdates on the side if a certain page was loaded; updates that would be specific to that page.

But then again, I feel like I’m asking too much, haha.

Hm… Darn. What I was thinking was maybe when say, I write a page or something, a plugin would be present as to have another text-box so that I can couple a description of the page (which would appear on the sidebar), and the actual content which would be obviously in the content area. But it sounds like that I’ll have to resort to the first method that katie1 proposed. Thanks moshu and katie1!
