    just wanna touch the include specific files tips for sidebar
    if you have additional sidebar like for single or archive you can do it like the following (WP2.5.x)


    get_sidebar($name); // arg $name is sidebar-"name".php

    the function will look for sidebar-single.php (inside theme dir) and load it if exists otherwise it will load the default sidebar.php.

    you can include section base sidebar base on wordpress hierarchical order. below is just a simple example (need to tweak it base on which section came first thought)

    if (is_single()){
    get_sidebar('single'); // include /theme/sidebar-single.php
    } elseif (is_archive()){
    get_sidebar('archive'); // include /theme/sidebar-archive.php
    } else {
    get_sidebar();
    }

  3. thanks for the tip ChaosKaizer
