I am using wordpress for my blog its at www.forexpm.com/blog/

The problem I have is when a blog post link is clicked, the sidebar with the links on disappears. Does anyone know how I can make the blog sidebar appear on all pages of the blog?

I asked in the wordpress forum but noone answered so I am a bit stuck now.

update: I just found changing the template does what I wanted.. I dont want to use this template though, I prefered the other one lol

I use typepad for my affiliatenonsense blog and I don't like it. I'm seriously thinking of wordpress. Would you recommend it?

I would highly recommend using WordPress. There are so many different themes and plugins available on-line giving it more of an edge. Once you learn the backend you would be amazed on how good it actual is.

It looks like it has a lot more features than blogger, I am still playing with it. Its very easy to use when its all setup :-)

Its way better than blogger, thats for sure. Also, browse around for more themes, you'll find some great designs that are free to use.

@PeterM,

The sidebar disappears because of the default theme. Use another theme like MW1.2 etc and the sidebar will remain even in the post pages.

I would recommend using wordpress because

-> Easy installation/ upgrades using cpanel
-> Plenty of free themes
-> Plenty of free plugins which can enhance the functionality of your blog/site
