A widget enhances your website’s functionalities. Adding widgets means you can add extra bits of functionality to your site without any need for coding. In WordPress, you can add any type of block (given by the Gutenberg editor) or specialized widgets in your specified widget areas.
In StoreFlex, there are three different widget areas where you can add your ideal widgets.
- Right Sidebar
- Left Sidebar
- Shop Page Sidebar
- Footer Main Areas
