Might be more a wordpress problem ;-(
 

I am using Wordpress 2.7.1, is there an easy way to switch widgets from the left to the right side bar and vice versa? In older versions it was all drag&drop, but that has disappeared :( SY

The initial drag & drop is gone, now you select the sidebar first then click the "Add" link on the widget. Once the widget is in a sidebar you can drag & drop to arrange the order

Thanks Flynn, dankeschoen! So if I want to move a widget from the left to the right side bar I have to copy and pste its content? I guess it would be a good idea to leave the old widget in place until the new one has safely landed ;-) SY

No, instead of everything being drag & drop, now you'll first place a widget in a sidebar by clicking the widget's "Add" link. After a widget is in a sidebar, you can drag & drop them around inside the sidebar, to change the order of the widgets inside the sidebar.

Little misunderstanding here ;-) I was referring to the drag&drop between the two sidebars to re-arrange widgets between the two side bars, nevermind ;-) Thanks for your patience ;-) SY
