Where exactly according to the Genesis Visual Hook Reference? Before content full width?

Also, You need to change your permalink structure.

// Register before-content widget
genesis_register_sidebar( array(
'id'	=> 'before-content',
'name'	=> __( 'WP Sites Custom Widget', 'agentpress' ),
'description'	=> __( 'This is the before-content section.', 'child' ),
) );
 
// Hook before-post widget to single page 
add_action( 'genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap', 'custom_before_content', 9 );
function custom_before_content() {
if ( is_page(1872) && is_active_sidebar( 'before-content' ) ) {
echo '<div class="before-content"><div class="wrap">';
dynamic_sidebar( 'before-content' );
echo '</div></div>';
}
}

//Add widget area, full width, specific page only, before content, genesis, child themes.

This code may not work because it includes HTML within the php which can cause problems.

Go to pastebin to get the code and paste it into the end of your child themes functions.php file.

I would like it before this: genesis_before_post

[braddaltonParticipant Post count: 2474]

Simply change the hook from genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap to genesis_before_post.

Use the code from Pastebin not the code above.

Still not working. I did get the code from Pastebin here http://pastebin.com/jnGzyxJLand changed the hook as instructed.

Do I need to do anything in the simple hooks plugin?

[moxiMember Post count: 7]

ok, I did as instructed and copied code from here: http://pastebin.com/jnGzyxJL then changed the hook, inserted into the functions.php, however it is not working.

Do I need to do anything in the simple hooks plugin?

[braddaltonParticipant Post count: 2474]

Should work.

Read this tutorial which offers 2 ways to do this.

Did you check in your Widgets area for the new widget?

Ok, I did know know you had to go into the widgets and put the Gen Slider into the new widget area. Makes sense now.

Thank you very, very much for all your help!
