Hello, I come to you because i’m using your free version of this plugin and i’m trying to use your widget without success. I did a custom sidebar in functions.php : function register_widget_area() { register_sidebar( array( 'name' => 'Home RS feed', 'id' => 'home_rs_feed', 'before_widget' => '', 'after_widget' => '', 'before_title' => '<h2 style="display:none">', 'after_title' => '</h2>', ) ); } add_action( 'widgets_init', 'register_widget_area' ); and i show it in my front-page.php : <?php get_sidebar('home_rs_feed'); ?> Of course i did put your widget in the good area on the back office, but in the front i dont have any feed or gear… I’m connected on your website, and i can’t find anything to fix this. After this i tried to use the shortcode in the page, and this work well. So i presume you have a bug in your widget. Best regards, Côme https://wordpress.org/plugins/powr-social-feed/ Hi Come, Thanks for pointing this out. We’re passing this along to our engineers to take a look at ASAP. More to follow! Hey Côme, Thanks for writing. Hmm…haven’t come across a case of a custom sidebar yet. Have you tried adding the widget to a standard sidebar area built-in to your theme, and does that work? You might be able to add the html directly in your sidebar definition. Eg adding this to before_widget or before_title: <div class=”powr-rss-feed” label=”enter some label”></div> Hope that helps, but let us know if you have any question or problems. Best, Ben
