    Hi Tom,

    How do I create widgets or containers for text within sections? And is there an option to space them apart properly?

    Tom, I’m pretty new with WordPress and your theme.
    Saying that, is there a way to add articles in a section I wish to add n latest article from a dedicated category inside a section). Is hat possible ? Do I need to insert php or any code inside the section ?
    Many thanks !

    Hi, I really like your section plugin and have used it on a page. Just one thing, no widgets appear as they do on the other pages where I don’t use the section feature? Otherwise said, is there a way to have widgets on the whole of a page using sections (rather than in a section)?

    thanks so much for your time and incredible theme and plugins!

    Sections aren’t typically meant to be used with sidebars.

    If you need them to, you can use a filter like this: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/sections-add-on/page/2/#post-153836

    Hi Tom,

    I am trying to change the homepage of my site to show “minisections” instead of the traditional masonry. I wan tho showcase in my homepage various categories in various forms so I am making a page and using a combination of Sections and your WP Show Posts plugin to achieve that.

    But I have these problems:

    1. The posts that are at the homepage don’t show the number of comments with the font awesome icon and this is critical for me. Is there any possibilities so We can show the number of comments?
    2. I am out of ideas about what to do to be able to showcase one post at first place (featured or sticky) and then the rest.

    Here is what I have at this moment: https://www.nbamaniacs.com/home-2/

    Hi Elio,

    1. This currently isn’t an option in WPSP, but will be in the next update.

    2. You should be able to create two different lists, one full width for the featured post, and the other smaller posts. You would just need to set the offset to 1 in your second list. Alternatively, you could just use the featured post option in the Columns tabs.

    Feel free to use the WPSP forum for these kinds of things: https://wpshowposts.com/support

    Thanks!

    Tom
