Content widget areas

With Make Plus active, any column in a Content section can be converted into a widget area on your page. This means you can include content you might usually find in a theme sidebar of footer right in your page!

Add a widget area

1. Set up a Content section in the page builder.
2. Convert a column to a widget area by clicking  in the upper right corner of the column.
3. Give the widget area a descriptive name so that it’s easy to identify in the WordPress Customizer and Widgets screens. (This name will not appear on the rendered page.)
4. Save the widget area by publishing or updating the page.
