# Missing header sidebar?

 * Has the header sidebar been removed? There’s a reference to it under the header
   settings, but there’s no such thing under widgets.
 * If it’s gone, how can I easily add a space for a banner ad between the header
   menu and the rest of the template content.
 * Cheers

   Very nice theme otherwise, very customizable, but it seems like the header sidebar
   is missing and I’m not really a coder, so no idea how to edit the template file.

 * details depend on the code of your banner ad, but generally:
 * edit header.php;
    find:
 *     ```
       <div id="description"><?php bloginfo('description');?></div>
                   </div>
              </div>
          </div>
       ```
   
 * add a div for your banner add for instance here:
 *     ```
       <div id="description"><?php bloginfo('description');?></div>
                   </div>
              </div>
       <div id="header-banner">YOUR BANNER AD CODE HERE</div>
          </div>
       ```
   
 * to style it, you can then use
    `#header-banner { ... }` in style.css
 * details depend on your setup.
