[wp-testers] WP 2.6 in two weeks? (Sidebar Management)

[Dan Milward]

Shelly, I'm not sure what your problem is. You're not explaining what 
you are doing during that 30 minutes - you could be installing plugins 
that are not well made, you could be installing a theme that does not 
support widgets.

I am excited about this ticket because SBM gives me control of what is 
displayed in my sidebar on a page by page or a post by post basis.

The work we did on that ticket is still buggy though. I just noticed 
that if you open up a widget and then hit cancel the cancel button it 
looses the settings for that widget - in other words it forgets which 
pages or posts you want that widget to show on.

The only way to fix this is to stop the cancel button from removing 
saved settings or by building a massive array would slow peoples sites 
down if they have thousands of posts... any ideas people?

Ciao,

Dan
