I will look at it. When did you install wordpress approximately, and at what version originally? If you are not on shared hosting can you setup a limited ftp account please for that wordpress installation. If you can't, that's fine also.</p> <p>Thanks, </p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/extra-widget-for-a-specific-category-is-not-showing-up#post-71757 Sun, 19 Aug 2012 12:53:53 +0000 Boris 71757@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Nick,</p> <p>maybe it is the easiest way, to give you adminaccess. Let me know your emailadress and I send you the logindata.<br /> At the moment I don't have it setup, but this is the story:</p> <p>- A Textwidget displays in any category (left or right sidebar) except "Kletterbericht" (and it does not show up anywhere else either, as described in the helpfile (bug) )<br /> - Kletterbericht is the first category I added.</p> <p>Boris (www.kletterbericht.de) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/extra-widget-for-a-specific-category-is-not-showing-up#post-71747 Sun, 19 Aug 2012 08:40:22 +0000 Nick 71747@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Please tell us what category, which widget, on what page doesn't show up and where the widget area is located on that page. Does this occur on just a single category page? Sequentially, is it the first, middle, or last category you've entered when compared to other categories? </p> <p>Unfortunately, the old post tells us very little except that the support team member never got access to investigate the phenomenon, so it remains a mystery. However please provide us with some more details, and please be as specific as you can about when, how, where this occurs, and whether its consistent or random.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/extra-widget-for-a-specific-category-is-not-showing-up#post-71539 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 11:28:51 +0000 Boris 71539@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>In addition the the posted problem I would like to ask, if it is possible to give the posts more space in width in the categories, even if I am using two or three colums on the frontpage. Is it true, that this would afford major coding?</p> <p>Best Boris </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/extra-widget-for-a-specific-category-is-not-showing-up#post-71388 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 15:49:40 +0000 Boris 71388@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I am having a problem with extra widget areas, that are not showing up in a specific categorie I definded.</p> <p>This problem ist described in this unsolved topic, and when I bumped it a few days ago someone closed the topic :-)</p> <p><a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/extra-widget-areas-for-specific-categories-not-working" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/extra-widget-areas-for-specific-categories-not-working</a>.</p> <p>Maybe someone can help?</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Boris </p>
