Missing Sidebar <Solved>

I've tried a couple of themes that have a sidebar but when activated the sidebar is not visable.
I don't see a setting in /admin to enable/disable the sidebar. I don't even see an option to put items on the sidebar.

I checked both themes and the sidebar.php file is looking for this plugin?
<?php Theme::plugins('siteSidebar') ?>
I can't seem to find that plugin anywhere....

Hi rlongfield,
there are some plugins which will show content in a theme that have sidebar.
Try the theme "Blog X" with plugins: "About" / "Categories" / "Navigation" / "Links" ...

That would explain things. I would have assumed that these plugins would have been listed as 'requirments' somewhere on the theme(s) information page(s).
