Dynamic widgets

Question

In wordpress is it possible to have different widgets on different pages,

I mean, I am having a form widget which has to be just displayed on posts page, it should just display on single.php

Is this possible? Is their any plugin for this?

You can do it manualy: http://www.effutio.com/web-design/using-multipledifferent-headers-sidebars-footers-and-comment-templates-in-wordpress/193/

or use a plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/display-widgets/

Answer 4

There are two options:

• Have a number of different sidebars in your theme. You will need to register your sidebar, and then call the sidebar from one of your template files.
• Install a plugin such as Widget Logic.

You can also use a combination of these methods when you need to manage sets of widgets over a variety of different areas.

Answer 5

Well, I may be wrong, but why can't you just create different sidebars for single and posts page? That's easier and doesn't require plugins.
