Widgetized Page Template

This plugin will automatically generate a page-specific widget area that replaces the content of the page when selecting the ‘Widgetized Page’ template. Requires the Genesis Framework.

You can add support for Genesis structural wraps when using the ‘Widgetized Page’ template along with the full-width Genesis page layout option. The following example shows how you can implement this on your theme:

// Add structural wrap to page widget area section
add_theme_support( 'genesis-structural-wraps', array( 'header', 'footer-widgets', 'footer', 'site-inner', 'page-widget-area' ) );
