Oh yes, I have been trying to figure this out for some time. That is exactly where I need a widget. Any help is much appreciated!
After a bunch of research, I finally figured it all out. In the functions.php file I put the following code:
function header_widgets_init() {
register_sidebar( array(
'name' => 'Below Navigation',
'id' => 'below_nav_widget',
'before_widget' => '<nav>',
'after_widget' => '</div>',
'before_title' => '<h2 class="rounded">',
'after_title' => '</h2>',
) );
}
add_action( 'widgets_init', 'header_widgets_init' );
Then in the header.php file under my nav section I put:
<?php if ( dynamic_sidebar('below_nav_widget') ) : else : endif; ?>
And everything worked! Good luck!
Thanks so much! This helped me add a few new widget areas.
