    Hi, good day.

    I’m not sure if this question was already asked but I’m gonna ask anyway.

    How can I remove a custom widget area once its created? I can’t seem to find a delete button once the Additional Custom Sidebar is created.

    Regards,

    Hello,

    Please find legenda/framework/js/admin.js file
    http://prntscr.com/ieo2e0
    and replace with

    var delSidebar = '<div class="delete-sidebar">delete</div>';
      
      jQuery('.sidebar-etheme_custom_sidebar').find('.handlediv').before(delSidebar);
      
      jQuery('.delete-sidebar').click(function(){
        
        var confirmIt = confirm('Are you sure?');
        
        if(!confirmIt) return;
        
        var widgetBlock = jQuery(this).closest('.sidebar-etheme_custom_sidebar');
      
        var data =  {
          'action':'etheme_delete_sidebar',
          'etheme_sidebar_name': jQuery(this).parent().find('h2').text()
        };
        
        widgetBlock.hide();
        
        jQuery.ajax({
          url: ajaxurl,
          data: data,
          success: function(response){
            console.log(response);
            widgetBlock.remove();
          },
          error: function(data) {
            alert('Error while deleting sidebar');
            widgetBlock.show();
          }
        });
      });

    Also, this will be fixed in next theme update.

    Hi thanks for the reply.

    I also noticed that the generated ID is the same with the name of the custom widget area. Example I created a custom widget area of “Fußzeile Rechnung” the generated ID will also be id=”Fußzeile Rechnung” which I think is not good, it is suppose to be id=”fusszeile-rechnung”.

    See screenshot – https://prnt.sc/ieqscr

    Hello,

    Thanks for the notice.
    Please go to legenda/framework/theme-functions.php
    find etheme_register_stored_sidebar function
    http://prntscr.com/iez4t5 and replace the id
    with 'id' => str_replace( ' ', '-', $name ),
    http://prntscr.com/iez57x
