Hi There,
We have pages with identical names.
When creating a sidebar for these pages the widgets placed in these sidebars will give problems.
THe move from location. Do the identical names is causing a bug
Als it is hard to see which page you are choosing to have another sidebar (since the nested structure is not visible when choosing a page).
Please resolve this issue asap

Hi hotspot,
Wordpress does not allow page names to be identical at the slug-name level. It causes huge issues with the database so we can't do anything about that unless the slugs are (at the very least) different.
Can you provide a link to the two pages and give specific details on what widgets are messing up and exactly how they should be behaving?
Keep in mind, if you have been removing and adding widget areas around a lot this can cause issues with how wordpress recognizes what widgets are supposed to be in which areas. This is a wordpress bug and not something we can alter and usually doesn't cause problems but it *can* if you are rapidly removing and adding widgets areas.

Devin

It depends on what you have set as the slug(url name) if you've been manually changing them. If we can see the site/pages live we can give a bit more guidance for sure.
Here is the codex entry on pages if you want the more offical word from Wordpress on the ins and outs of pages and their recommended structure: http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages
