I have tried everything to get this random grey dot before my widget in the header area to disappear and nothing is working. Any suggestions? Would GREATLY appreciate any help.

Thanks!

]]>This plugin is dangerous in my opinion. I installed it and no other widget areas appear on the front end, and after uninstalling it and removing the code they are still gone. Looking at the code for where they should be there is nothing there. I’m glad this was just a test site and not a live project. I will have to ftp all wp files back up to see if that fixes this.
]]>I use custom widget area in header. If I put there some modules (text, menu etc), then it shows gray dots before module. Like dots before list.
How to remove these dots?
I’ve managed to get the code into my TwentyEleven child theme, and I’ve placed the widget in the header where I want it with CSS.
However… I’ve been using Firebug, but I cannot seem to find the right CSS rules/attributes to display my 24-pixel icons properly. They appear giant — at the entire width of the header widget. I get the same results with both the Social Media Widget and with a Black Studio TinyMCE widget. A title and line of plain text seem to look fine, but the icons display huge.
Site is here
(If you see a nice tidy row of 24px icons under the search box, I fixed it, but right now there’s just a giant LinkedIn icon there.)
I am a bit shaky with the CSS, but here’s what I have right now:
/* STYLE SOCIAL MEDIA WIDGET AREA IN HEADER */
#header-social {
margin: -60px 20px 0px;
padding: 0px 0px 10px 0;
font-size: 14px;
border: none;
line-height: 0px;
float: ;
width: 240px;
height: 40px;
z-index: 99;
color: ;
position: relative;
top: -10px;
left: 0px;
}And in header.php:
<?php /* Add SOCIAL MEDIA WIDGET */ ?>
<div id="header-social">
<?php if (!function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar('Header Widget Area')) : ?>
<?php endif; ?> </div><!-- #header-social -->Many thanks for help!!
]]>I installed the plugin but where should I put the code? It is not clear on and I found nothing about it … thanks
]]>hello
where do i place the code
i want him above my header
is it in the css
or in the header.php
or somewere else
thanks
]]>After first typeing this code into functions.php & having this one particluar widget work, I wasnt’ able to expand my other widgets in the editor. Then I found this one that I added by sticking the folder into the theme. It did the same thing.
]]>Great plugin!
I would still like to have more than one custom widget, so it would be great to have this option.
Cheers
]]>This widget deleted my site! When I took it off, my site was back on again. Unfortunately, I can’t use this.
]]>Hi,
I like your plugin and I use it to show my custom menu, but I would like to make it static, so when the user scroll down the widget stays on top of the page… I’ve seen this on several WP sites, so I wonder how to achieve this..
Thanks

Thanks for freeing us from the limitations imposed by the header areas of most themes. Different headers on every page with a minimum of code …
fantastic. [Text moderated]
Your genius is truly appreciated.

]]>Where exactly shall I put the code? I’d like to have a sidebar in the header of every page.
And the shall be like this?:
<?
if (!function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar(‘Header Widget Area’)) :
endif;
?>
Thank you.
]]>First, thank you for creating this plugin! It gave me exactly what I needed for a complex WP child theme I’m creating for a client.
The Problem:
I am using Custom Widget Area to add MegaMenu to my header. Works really good… however…
In checking my site with validator.w3.org it gives the following error for this plugin. This is because in custom_widget_area.php when your plugin registers as a sidebar widget you used an li for the “before_widget” and “after_widget” tag. This also gives a list item “dot” at the beginning of the menu when used in the header.
Also, that beginning li gave me a “stray dot” at the beginning of my header menu and it caused extra space above the menu in Chrome and IE.
What I did was change this the li to a div in both places. Please consider making this same change to your plugin so others don’t have similar problems.
____________________________
…nu_widget-3″ class=”widget-container “> <div class=”dcjq-mega-menu” id=”dc_jq…
Contexts in which element li may be used:
Inside ol elements.
Inside ul elements.
Inside menu elements.
Content model for element div:
Flow content.
This plugin worked but after adding an additional widget area, my main sidebar widgets stopped working! Any idea?
]]>Hi,
