How to add widgets to pages or posts?

[Noobkiller]

Does anyone know how to add widgets to any page in wordpress?

Not sure how he does it, but Denis de Bernardy has this function built into his (paid) Semiologic Wordpress CMS

Wow that is really impressive.

It took me forever to come up with a good code for my tabs that would center decent just for example. This is some nice stuff.

Adding widgets is built into the latest version of WordPress (2.5). You may want to upgrade your blog.

Where do you want to add widgets? To your sidebar (all posts and pages that use it), to a particular page, to your archive pages?

What theme are you using? That makes a huge difference.

What exactly are you trying to do with widgets on posts/pages? Which widgets exactly. It is possible to widgetize any area of your theme, contrary to the belief that it can only be used on a sidebar. I wrote about this in my make your WordPress theme widget-ready tutorial.

That's yet another one of the things I love about WordPress.

It helps if you know PHP at all. Basically open them in an editor and drop the code in. If you have any probs post here and someone can help. Once you get it you can do any / all widgets.
