‘Very Basic’ review is wrong, it’s simple but very flexible

Very easy to configure and set up – you can rename sidebars, and this plugin also allows as many widget areas as you want. You can create new widget areas with each sidebar that you want, and put those sidebar widgets on whatever pages that you want.

Here’s how to rename a sidebar: Go to ‘All Pages’, and find the row one of the pages that uses the sidebar you want to change the name of, then look in that row’s “sidebar” column. There you’ll see the name of the sidebar; select that sidebar link and it will take you to an Edit Sidebar page where you can change the title.

To delete a sidebar: Just remove it from any page that it has been assigned to.

Very handy plugin and saves lots of time from having to register sidebars in functions.php.
