Is there a way to have the current Items on my sidebar listed under Presentation > Widgets? Currently my Sidebar 1 shows the following message "Your theme will display its usual sidebar when this box is empty. Dragging widgets into this box will replace the usual sidebar with your customized sidebar." Or is it suppose to display the message? I tried this http://automattic.com/code/widgets/themes/ but to now avail. Any suggestion? I tried making my theme widgets aware and did what you suggest here.
