<?php endif;?>

thank you esmi, i hate to be so helpless but could you tell me where this goes, or if i am replacing something with this?

Sorry – I should have said…

It’s a replacement for the primary widget area code in the 2010 theme’s sidebar.php file. Look for the block of code that starts with <div id="primary" class="widget-area" role="complementary"> and ends with </div><!-- #primary .widget-area --> and try replacing it with the code above.

dude i love when things just work. thank you esmi. there should be prizes to be won for the moderators here. you guys are awesome.

Thank you. ??

I’m not sure if this question relates to my question, but esmi you seem to know what you’re doing! Hope you can help me.

I am using twenty ten and I can’t figure out how to get rid of the meta info (login, search, archives) on the right side of all the pages, for example: https://masterpiecefinishesva.com/wordpress/?page_id=2

I have searched the forums but don’t see how to do it. It is it even possible with this themes to remove all the meta data so that it’s just a regular site? Or should I be using something like the Sandbox theme instead?
