FAQ
- Will this work on every theme?
-
Yes and no. This plugin will work modifying the containers, but themes like ‘TwentyTen’ use unordered lists
ulto surround the widget areas and this will fail w3 validation since<ul>cannont contain elements other than<li>. - How do you fix the twentyten theme to work with this?
-
You can edit the sidebar.php file in the theme editor and remove
<ul class="xoxo">and</ul>for both the primary and secondary widget areas. Leave the<div>s and you should now validate.
