This is a good guide on how to retain your widgets and (more importantly) widget data when you change layouts.
I've done some testing and it should work, provided that your widgets have data to begin with. The last test done was with widgets sans data, so obviously nothing appears - there should be a few linked lists after the Provider tab on the left (via the Hello Kitty template).
(Hello World, and Kitty, in the full post)
Depending on when you actually read this post, i.e. using which template, the Hello Kitty references may or may not make sense. This post was done while testing out the Hello Kitty template (it really is a cheezy template, but fits a specific purpose - which I won't devulge here).
In any case, the trials and tribulations suffered here will prove to be a good way to ensure that the main myAsylum template migration(s) can be done without much pain and suffering...
