Wordsmith - Correct way to move a homepage block to Sidebar
3 replies · Started by Ashwin on April 26, 2021
Hi,
I know I may be asking a WordPress question rather than GeneratePress but since there is a lot of overlap between the two, let me try my luck here! How do I add a block that is in wordsmith theme to the sidebar instead? See https://contentshastra.com/ desktop view. The block in the middle showing my picture (it is some sort of a container)-- I want to move it to the right sidebar. Should I click "Edit as HTML" and copy the code to a new HTML widget or Text Widget? Or is there a right and new way of doing it?
Hi Ashwin,
Should I click "Edit as HTML" and copy the code to a new HTML widget or Text Widget?
The result can be inconsistent when doing that but you can give it a shot first and see if works for every page/post.
Or is there a right and new way of doing it?
I'd say the current correct way of doing it would be to create that widget from an HTML widget from scratch then style it with a bit of CSS.
We can point you in the right direction if you decided to go that route.
I took the "from the scratch" approach and added the HTML widget. Thanks. Marking it as closed.
No problem :)
