Right, ok. That "sidebar" you refer to is called the widget handle --- it is a small panel with several buttons that provide control over the widget. If it doesn't popup when you hover the mouse pointer over the widget, it is probably because widgets are "locked". Locking the widgets is useful when you set them up as you like them and don't want to move or close them accidentally (you lock them in a fixed place). To unlock the widgets, right-click somewhere at the desktop and choose the "unlock widgets" option from the pop-up menu. After that the handles will reappear when hovering over widgets. You can also choose the "unlock widgets" option from the "plasma desktop" menu in the top-right corner of the desktop (click to open it). You may want to familiarize yourself with KDE desktop controls.
