I have been using Genesis Simple Sidebars to create additional widgets for an a/b testing page for our site at Linklings and would like to duplicate the Home Feature 1 (left) and Home Feature 2 (right) sections. I tried doing it with simple sidebars, then added the areas into the php template, but for some reason, it’s trying to incorporate the new text areas into the existing Home Feature 1 and 2 areas. This is the portion of the php template that I added to:
function epik_home_loop_helper_middle() {
if ( is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-1’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-2’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-1-l2’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-2-r2’ ) ) {
echo ‘<div class=”home-feature-bg-alt hf1″><div class=”wrap”>’;
genesis_widget_area( ‘home-feature-1’, array(
‘before’ => ‘<div class=”home-feature-1″>’,
‘after’ => ‘</div>’,
) );
genesis_widget_area( ‘home-feature-2’, array(
‘before’ => ‘<div class=”home-feature-2″>’,
‘after’ => ‘</div>’,
) );
genesis_widget_area( ‘home-feature-1-l2’, array(
‘before’ => ‘<div class=”home-feature-1-l2″>’,
‘after’ => ‘</div>’,
) );
genesis_widget_area( ‘home-feature-2-r2’, array(
‘before’ => ‘<div class=”home-feature-2-r2″>’,
‘after’ => ‘</div>’,
) );
echo ‘</div><!– end .wrap –></div><!– end .home-feature-bg-alt –>’;
I then created areas for them within the site Stylesheet. Is there something that I am missing, or should do differently? Thank you greatly for your time!
