Right sidebar content blocks are not showing up with Drupal 7 panelizer.
I have activated the blocks in the panelizer settings but when I save, they still aren't displaying. Here are some screenshots:
Please, follow these steps:
Flush drupal cache
Make sure you have content in those blocks.
Inspect the region sidebar using the browser to make sure that the region is been rendered.

I'm sure this is a very simple question, but I'm new to Drupal and haven't found a solution by the traditional methods of Googling and searching the Drupal home site, so please indulge me.
I've just installed Drupal 7 and am using the Bartik theme.
When I click Structure > Blocks there are a bunch of blocks at the bottom of the page which you can drag to a position corresponding to a region of the page template (Footer, Sidebar 1 etc).
However, when I assign a block to a region, whether by dragging, using the dropdown menu or using the configuration menu against the block, it does not save the assignation.
The block does not appear in the assigned region and when I return to the blocks page, those blocks are back at the bottom of the page, not assigned to a region.
The only blocks that I can make stick are ones that I create myself.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for a solution?
Thank you.

It sounds as if you didn't click "save blocks" after assigning a block to a region - did you? There is a button on the bottom of the page - just below the blocks.
I would like to use a page I have already made as the homepage of the wordpress site. It's a design made with bootstrap, and it consists of a full width and full height page that is divided in 4 equal rectangles, obviously flexible. clicking on each one of this rectangles should link to 4 different pages/posts/archives.
The question is: how can I change the main-index file in order to have just that design as my homepage, and not any sidebar or header or footer?
Thank you, I tried in many ways, but no success!
Go to Options -> Reading then select A static page in the homepage settings and choose the page you want to use as homepage.
You may need to define a custom template for this page if you dont want header / sidebar.
I have recently started using Drupal but I am having a bit of difficulty editing some blocks. I've gone into the blocks admin menu and I can see a list of all of the different blocks being used and they have the configure option next to them.
If I click configure on some of them, on the next page I am given the 'edit block' box but on others the box doesn't show up (e.g. footer). How can I make the edit box show up or is there another way to edit them?
Thanks for any help.
1] visit this link http://drupal.org/project/block_edit and download module and install it on your site.
2] visit this link to apply setting admin/settings/block_edit.
What actually this module do?
It's provide a edit link on block itself where you are viewing it. Now clicking on edit link will redirect you to specific block edit page. This means need not to go deep inside and find block you want to edit.
Some modules, like the menu module, add blocks with auto-generated content that cannot be edited directly from the blocks admin page. Usually only content blocks added by yourself will have the edit block content option.
Footer will be a menu block, so there will be no editable area. If you want to make changes to the menu you'd need to edit the menu rather than the block.
I have a web site on Wordpress using my custom made theme, I need to put a module with text and images on the frontpage of my theme which should be managed from the admin panel. I've read about widgets but I don't quite get how can I put them anywhere not just in sidebars, I don't have sidebars on my frontpage. any help would be appreciated.
Widget compatible sidebar in Wordpres it is just position on the page where widget could be placed. It is not necessary to be in the left or right column of the site. I could be anywhere(header, footer, middle part). Look on the default theme how sidebars created in it. Default theme has 7 or 8 positions(sidebars) for widgets accessable from admin. Also there are lots of tutorials on how to add sidebar into theme
http://www.blogohblog.com/adding-extra-sidebar-to-your-wordpress-theme/,
http://www.balkhis.com/web-designs-resources/how-to-add-a-dynamic-sidebar-in-wordpress/
and many others.
Problem: I have 2 sidebars (widget-areas). In the admininistration-backend sidebar 1 is always open, but sidebar 2 is closed by default, when I navigate to "Design -> Widgets". See this screenshot:
Question: Is there a way to configure to keep the second sidebar open by default?
Wordpress version 3.1.2.
The widgets in the WordPress admin dashboard are controlled by jQuery UI specifically the opening and closing is controlled by jQuery UI Collapsable.
When you make adjustment like opening and closing collapsable items the last state is always stored in a cookie and the state should be the same when you come back to the page. The same is true for the collapsable state for the menu items on the left sidebar.
If it is not working for you most likely you dont have javascript enabled on your browser or a plugin is causing a conflict somewhere.
