Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

Overview

About this plugin

This plugin adds a button to widgets area to create a new sidebar area which you can later use just about anywhere.

Usage

To display the sidebar with shortcode you can use [stag_sidebar id="custom-sidebar"] where id is the id of the sidebar that appears in the description area of the respective widget area. You can also pass an additional parameter class in shortcode to add class to the widget area wrapper on frontend.

Import/Export

We have added compatibility with Widget Importer & Exporter, which gives you the freedom to import and export custom widget areas when moving widgets from one site to another or backing up the widgets.

If you’d like to check out the code and contribute, join us on GitHub. Pull requests, issues, and plugin recommendations are more than welcome!
