Widget Areas

Theme widget areas can be accessed from AppearanceWidgets or AppearanceCustomizeWidgets. Vantage offers the following widget areas:

  • Header: Displays in the right of the header. Widgets appear horizontally from left to right. This widget area isn’t displayed when using the Logo in Menu masthead layout.
  • Sidebar: Displays to the right of the content area by default but changeable. Widgets appear vertically.
  • Footer: Displays below the content area. The footer will automatically assign columns as widgets are added. For example, if four widgets are added to the footer area they will appear in four 25% width columns.
  • Masthead: Take complete control over the header. Replaces the logo and header widget area. The header will automatically assign columns as widgets are added. For example, if four widgets are added to the header area they will appear in four 25% width columns.
