<p>Replace the theme default sidebars with your newly created sidebars.</p>
<p>This plugin was forked from the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-sidebars/" rel="ugc">Custom Sidebars plugin</a>, which we used for a few years, but their plugin development stalled, so we were forced to create this plugin. We really appreciate the work of developers of the original plugin!</p>
<p>This plugin allows you to create your own custom sidebars, configure them by adding widgets, and replace the default sidebars on posts or pages you want in just few clicks.</p>
<p>Here is the tl;dr list of the differences from original source:</p>
<ul>
<li>Compatibility with the latest stable PHP version (namely PHP 7.0+).</li>
<li>Removed the “archive pages” functionality – replacing the custom sidebars on archive pages is not possible (e.g. on certain categories).</li>
<li>Open-sourced development on <a href="https://github.com/proteusthemes/custom-sidebars-by-proteusthemes" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub</a>. Issue reports and pull requests welcome!</li>
<li>Covered with PHP unit tests.</li>
<li>Fixed couple of JavaScript errors.</li>
<li>Removed WP admin pointer.</li>
<li>Modern workflow with Grunt and Bower.</li>
<li>Removed heavy advertising.</li>
</ul>

<p>This plugin adds a button to widgets area to create a new sidebar area which you can later use just about anywhere.</p>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<p>To display the sidebar with shortcode you can use <code>[stag_sidebar id="custom-sidebar"]</code> where <code>id</code> is the id of the sidebar that appears in the description area of the respective widget area. You can also pass an additional parameter <code>class</code> in shortcode to add class to the widget area wrapper on frontend.</p>

<h4>Import/Export</h4>
<p>We have added compatibility with <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-importer-exporter" rel="ugc">Widget Importer & Exporter</a>, which gives you the freedom to import and export custom widget areas when moving widgets from one site to another or backing up the widgets.</p>
