How or where do you add widgets to WordPress blogs?
On wordpress blogs they give you free widgets to add to your site.But i want to add external widgets to my blog and iam not sure how to paste the widget code and where to add it.Do you paste under widgets or headers or in the main body of a post?

Hi Andy,
It sounds like you are using WordPress.com (the free service), and not the WordPress.org software on a self hosted site.
If this is the case, then the short answer is, you can't do that with a WordPress.com site.
Here is a support page from WordPress.com that explains some of the differences between the two systems:

Look under WordPress.com cons.

How to hide sidebars/widgets in wordpress on my sales page?
Hi,
I'm trying to make a sales page in wordpress, but I don't want my 2 sidebars/widgets to show on the sales page to optimize my sales page. How can I do this? I have 2 sidebars/widgets that I don't want them to show on my sales page.

Herschel Lawhorn answers:
You can use a pretty easy plugin called widget logic for that, which will allow you to tell worpdress where you want or don't want your widgets displayed:
