# Layout breaks when widget is inserted

 * I am using the divi theme and placed the widget in a custom widget area.
 * When I use the divi sidebar module to select that custom widget in my divi layout
   editor, my page breaks. It’s as if there is an open tag that makes all the content
   after the widget module to be included in its row.
 * I have a normal sidebar layout on the page, sidebar left, content right, but 
   when I add in that widget it takes all the content from the right and inserts
   it directly under/in the same <div> as the left column where the widget is.
 * I have tried different settings and remade the widget, but it gives the same 
   result.

 * Hi [@nregard](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nregard/),
 * If you can share more details (how exactly it “breaks”, or an URL where I can
   see this in action; reproduction steps, etc) I may be able to help out.
 * Note that I’m not super familiar with Divi (I avoid using page builders like 
   the plague if I can -not just Divi, all of them- for performance reasons, I prefer
   using Gutenberg blocks now) so I’d appreciate it if you can provide step-by-step
   instructions so I can reproduce the problem and provide some guidance.
