I created some custom widgets and I added them to the admin area.
How can I customise the stack order? I create a "Header Left" and "Header Right" areas and I would like to have them at the top of my list (in the widget admin page).
Thank you

Change the order widget areas are stacked

Hi,
if you used the filter 'thematic_widgetized_areas' to create the widget areas, change the 'admin_menu_order' to something below 100 for your widget areas. Both will show up above Primary Aside.

What if I didn't use the filter 'thematic_widgetized_areas'? (I wouldn't even know if I had actually, but I can't see anything akin to 'admin_menu_order' in what I did)!
I added a 'tertiary aside' using:
function my_widgets_init() {
register_sidebar(array(
'name' => 'Tertiary Aside',
'id' => 'tertiary-aside',
'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="widgetcontainer %2$s">',
'after_widget' => "",
'before_title' => "<h3 class=\"widgettitle\">",
'after_title' => "</h3>\n",
));}
add_action( 'init', 'my_widgets_init' );function my_extra_widgets() {
if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && is_sidebar_active('tertiary-aside') ) {
echo '<div id="tertiary-aside" class="aside">'. "\n" . '<ul class="xoxo">' . "\n";
dynamic_sidebar('tertiary-aside');
echo '' . "\n" . '</div><!-- #tertiary-aside .aside -->'. "\n";
}
}
add_action('thematic_belowmainasides', 'my_extra_widgets', 8);and it would be great if it could show up under the 'Second Aside' in the list.
I have looked at the somthing new 'bout post, but can't figure it out!
Thx.

i don't think it can be done in your code. i highly recommend filtering the thematic_widget_areas array.. which i believe is the method shown the post you referenced.
'admin_menu_order' is then the array key you need to target to control where it gets sorted in the admin/backend

Gorblimey guv'nor... it works!
Add a third aside and have it show third in list of widgetized areas:
function add_tertiary_aside($content) {
$content['Tertiary Aside'] = array(
'admin_menu_order' => 300,
'args' => array (
'name' => 'Tertiary Aside',
'id' => 'tertiary-aside',
'before_widget' => thematic_before_widget(),
'after_widget' => thematic_after_widget(),
'before_title' => thematic_before_title(),
'after_title' => thematic_after_title(),
),
'action_hook' => 'thematic_belowmainasides',
'function' => 'thematic_tertiary_aside',
'priority' => 8,
);
return $content;
}
add_filter('thematic_widgetized_areas', 'add_tertiary_aside');function thematic_tertiary_aside() {
if (is_sidebar_active('tertiary-aside')) {
echo thematic_before_widget_area('tertiary-aside');
dynamic_sidebar('tertiary-aside');
echo thematic_after_widget_area('tertiary-aside');
}
}Thx Madame Viking!
But is it possible to assign the main-aside class to the new widget area?

yuppers. got this from gene. i was looking to change the class on a widget with id of header-aside so you'll need to change that to your id
//change class of header aside function child_header_widget_class($content) { $child_class = str_replace('header-aside" class="aside', 'header-aside" class="aside main-aside', $content); return $child_class; } add_filter('thematic_before_widget_area', 'child_header_widget_class');Posted 2 years ago # -
Ahh! Muchos gracias. My deadline looks achievable and a great weight has lifted from my shoulders. :-)
For third aside people, remember to #third_aside_div_name {clear: right;} to get them to stack nicely.
