I just spent what feels like my lifetime widgetizing the sidebar. Well part of the time was finding a workaround for the id=links validation bug and part was finding a way to widget-wrap the theme switcher. Still, it’s now good to go for easy manipulation my-side.
I did this as billie-jo’s blog is widgetised and recently I’ve been adding hundreds of links at a time to the blogs for blogshares purposes. Adding them to this blog and my blogshares blog was disgustingly difficult to do with all the navigating the back end to get to the sidebar file, then putting the links in the right place without messing anything up, yuck! with billie-jo’s I just opened a text widget and threw the links in there. So, now I can do this here too! woohoo!
Takes so long getting things up and running. My sympathies.
Hehe, thanks. I spent so much time sorting it out and visiting w3c that I didn’t get my housework done and SWMBO was mad at me when she got home from work! hehe. The trials of a blogger eh…
