Lets make widgets better. This plugin moves your wigdet areas (some call them sidebars) to the left, making them the focus of the screen. The list of available widgets now lives on the right. Available widgets are contained in their own scrollable div, helping resolve the age-old problem of scrolling and dragging. And widgets get some icons!
Your active widgets get a little love, too. Saving a widget no closes the controls, and you’ll get some feedback that your widget has saved.
This plugin is under active development and may break some things. Also, its not very friendly across various screen sizes, yet.

Better Widgets

Make it easier to manage your site's widgets.

Brainstorm Force

Normally you have a sidebar that appears throughout the website. However, sometimes it is necessary to display a relevant, different sidebar on certain pages on the website. For an example: on WooCommerce pages, a sidebar with related or top seller products would be more relevant than the latest comments, blog posts right?
This plugin helps you solve that problem as it allows you to create new sidebars and display them conditionally on certain locations of the website easily. Once the sidebar is created and displayed on pages you like, you can add relevant widgets in it.
