How to Hide or Show a sidebar Widgets on some Pages in Blogger

Follow the steps >>>>>>>>>>>

Step 1. Go to Blogger's Dashboard > Layout and name the HTML/Javascript gadgets that you have already added. Doing this, it will be easier for you to identify the widgets that you have in your Blogger's template. Give it a unique title so that it does not match with any of the titles of any other widgets already added.

Step 2. Next thing to do is to go to Template and click on Edit HTML


Step 3. Click anywhere inside the code area and press the CTRL + F keys to open the search box

blogger template, ctrl + f, search box

Step 4. Find the HTML of your widget by typing the widget's name in the search box - hit Enter.

Let's say that the title for one of your widgets is "Recent Posts". After searching for the widget's name, You will find a similar code in my template:
<b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='Recent Posts' type='HTML'>
<b:includable id='main'>
<!-- only display title if it's non-empty -->
<b:if cond='data:title != ""'>
<h2 class='title'><data:title/></h2>
</b:if>
<div class='widget-content'>
<data:content/>
</div>
<b:include name='quickedit'/>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>  
This code represents the widget/gadget that you have added in the Page Elements location (Layout).



Step 5. After you've found your widget's code, add the following conditional tags marked with red just below and above to hide the widget from specific pages or posts in Blogger. For instance, in case you want:

<!-- only display title if it's non-empty -->
<b:if cond='data:title != ""'>
<h2 class='title'><data:title/></h2>
