Reply To: Moving the Order of the Widgets Please…

Thank you very much Jason for your reply! I appreciate it.

Yes, I do use ftp in case something goes wrong, plus I make regular backups at the hosting level, WordPress level and manually as well.

Just trying to figure how to edit this home.php file to achieve this change of display order. Unfortunately for me, I use all the widgets, which is why I need to move 9,10,11,12,13 up right after 4.
If anyone can suggest how, here is the code:

<?php

add_action( ‘genesis_meta’, ‘epik_home_genesis_meta’ );
/**
* Add widget support for homepage. If no widgets active, display the default loop.
*
*/
function epik_home_genesis_meta() {

if ( is_active_sidebar( ‘slider-wide’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘slider’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘welcome-wide’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘welcome-feature-1’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘welcome-feature-2’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘welcome-feature-3’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-4’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-5’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-6’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-7’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-8’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-9’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-10’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-11’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-12’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-13’ ) || is_active_sidebar( ‘home-feature-14’ ) ) {

remove_action( ‘genesis_loop’, ‘genesis_do_loop’ );
add_action( ‘genesis_after_header’, ‘epik_home_loop_helper_top’ );
add_action( ‘genesis_after_header’, ‘epik_home_loop_helper_welcome’ );
add_action( ‘genesis_after_header’, ‘epik_home_loop_helper_middle’ );
add_action( ‘genesis_after_header’, ‘epik_home_loop_helper_mid_bottom’ );
add_action( ‘genesis_after_header’, ‘epik_home_loop_helper_bottom’ );
add_filter( ‘genesis_pre_get_option_site_layout’, ‘__genesis_return_full_width_content’ );

}
}
