Cant add Widgets

Hi,

I am trying to add a widget after the slider and am using the code what i have found but nothing changes. I have tried several different ways, adding text, adding widgets but nothing changes. I am new and have created a child theme using childify me. Not sure what i am doing wrong.

Code i am using is..

// Adds a widget area.
if (function_exists(‘register_sidebar’)) {
register_sidebar(array(
‘name’ => ‘Extra Header Widget Area’,
‘id’ => ‘extra-widget-area’,
‘description’ => ‘Extra widget area after the header’,
‘before_widget’ => ‘<div class=”widget my-extra-widget”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ‘</div>’,
‘before_title’ => ‘<h2>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘</h2>’
));
}

// Place the widget area after the header in home page only
add_action (‘__after_header’, ‘add_my_widget_area’, 10);
function add_my_widget_area() {
if ( tc__f(‘__is_home’) && function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) ) {
dynamic_sidebar(‘Extra Header Widget Area’);
}
}

I understand this will insert a widget after the header but once i get ti working i can change the positioning.

Hopefully someone can help me!!

Its probably something really easy I’m not doing..

Thanks
