How to Place a Block in a Magento CMS Page Sidebar

Magento Go allows site owners to place a block in the sidebar. If the Magento theme supports sidebars on both sides, just like the default theme, then you can place the content block in either of the two sidebars. By slightly tweaking the codes, you can position the block and control its position in relation to other blocks in the sidebar.

• From the Admin Panel, select CMS > Pages > Manage Content
