I did say I was thick!

I changed the original functions.php and added two new array under the existing one. One named Sidebar1 that I’d created and one named sidebar2 … when I swopped to child theme my site went blank.

I then created a blank functions.php but just copied the following into it.

array(

‘name’ => ‘Sidebar1’,

‘before_widget’ => ‘<div id=”%1$s” class=”widget %2$s”>’,

‘after_widget’ => ‘</div>’,

‘before_title’ => ‘<h3 class=”widgettitle”>’,

‘after_title’ => ‘</h3>’

)

array(

‘name’ => ‘Sidebar2’,

‘before_widget’ => ‘<div id=”%1$s” class=”widget %2$s”>’,

‘after_widget’ => ‘</div>’,

‘before_title’ => ‘<h3 class=”widgettitle”>’,

‘after_title’ => ‘</h3>’

)

That didn’t work, but at least the screen didn’t go blank! I know a little knowledge is dangerous, but I’m hoping I can learn by trial and error, so what has this thicko got completely wrong?
