[Support request] How to remove all GP sidebar?

[DIMO Software]

Hi
What is filter to remove all default sidebars generated by GP in /wp-admin/widgets.php?
Don’t want to hide them, but really do not want any of them because we are building a full Elementor website. thank you

Hi there,

You can remove them globally here:

Let me know if this helps.

But that do not remove them from, this, below, does, I’m not sure it the clean/right way to do it…

add_action( ‘widgets_init’, ‘remove_some_sidebars’, 99);
function remove_some_sidebars(){
unregister_sidebar( ‘sidebar-1’ );
unregister_sidebar( ‘sidebar-2’ );
unregister_sidebar( ‘header’ );
unregister_sidebar( ‘footer-1’ );
unregister_sidebar( ‘footer-2’ );
unregister_sidebar( ‘footer-3’ );
unregister_sidebar( ‘footer-4’ );
unregister_sidebar( ‘footer-5’ );
unregister_sidebar( ‘footer-bar’ );
unregister_sidebar( ‘top-bar’ );
}

Looks correct to me.
