    Hi, a few months ago you helped me resolve a problem I was having with my widgets and I managed to add recent posts and popular posts widgets. I was now wondering if you could help me to add a text widget I can’t do it with my normal controller as it does not work.

    Could you please give me the HTML to place into sidebar.php and sidebar-posts.php. Also how to place HTML within the the text widget.

    Thank you so much for your help you are so helpful last time.

    Cheers

    Chris

    // Display text widget
$ac_widget_rp_inst = array( 'title' => 'YOUR TITLE HERE', 'text' => 'YOUR TEXT GOES HERE', 'filter' => true );
echo '<aside class="side-box clearfix widget ac_popular_posts_widget"><div class="sb-content clearfix">';
	the_widget( 'WP_Widget_Text', $ac_widget_rp_inst, $ac_widgets_wrap_args );
echo '</div></aside><!-- END .sidebox .widget -->';

    I am sorry but that’s the most I can help you. You should really try and use the provided sidebars. If you need simple customization, like this one, you should try https://www.fiverr.com/, it’s really cheap.

    That was perfect thank you!
    I didn’t go into detail but for some reason I cannot use the provided sidebars as I’m using a multiple themes plug-in.
    But thank you again for your help.
