Hi, i’m developing my own widgets and i would like to know, if there is a chance to get the number of columns where the user placed the widget.

For example, if i have my own image widget, i would like to know, if it is placed inside a one column or five column layout, so i can serve the right image size.

Thanks again for this great plugin.

Cheers

    Hi Jan,

    I’ve forwarded this thread to the development team. You should hopefully hear back from them or me, soon.

    Hi Jan

    This would technically be possible. Each widget has access to some information through the panels_info array key in the $instance argument. The cell_index key is what would be most useful to you.

    https://github.com/siteorigin/siteorigin-panels/blob/develop/siteorigin-panels.php#L986

    The best thing you can do is var_dump the $instance value in your widget and check all the values available to you. From there, you can figure out which ones offer the most valuable information to you.
