I have the mosd on the left side showing but the blocks on the right gets hidden on some pages or if they simply excluded, i want blocks on the right allways on.

what pages are you wanting to see right side blocks?

The themefooter function that's in the theme.php file of your theme checks to see if index file is set to true (as suggested by the previous poster). Each module has the ability to turn the constant INDEX_FILE on or off -- that is set it to true.

You could hack themefooter to always do a blocks('r') ... but the results wouldn't be guaranteed. Plus if you were using multiple themes you'd have to hack them all. Blocks is a function in mainfile that checks the blocks table and presents blocks depending on where their location is set to, left, right, center or down. You could also modify the index.php of all your modules to set index_file on (as suggested) but again you'd need to test to see how this works on your system.
