I can’t seem to add a widget to that left menu now, I’m guessing since that menu bar isn’t supposed to be there. How could I add a widget that appears above the “Home” button? The code for the widget is [prisna-google-website-translator] My site is lexingtonhousing.org

Thank you.

Thanks for writing in!

You can add the code below in your child theme’s functins.php file.

add_filter('wp_nav_menu_items','add_search_box_to_menu', 10, 2);
function add_search_box_to_menu( $items, $args ) {
    if( $args->theme_location == 'primary' )
        
    return 'Google widget code'.$items;
}

Change Google widget code with your code.

Hope that helps.

I tried a few ways:

return ‘[prisna-google-website-translator]’.$items;
return ‘prisna-google-website-translator’.$items;
return ‘Prisna GWT’.$items;

All I get is writing with no widget. Here’s the specs on the widget:

Usage
– Go to the Appereance > Widgets panel, search for the following widget

Prisna GWT

– Copy and paste the following code into pages, posts, etc…

[prisna-google-website-translator]

– Copy and paste the following code into any PHP file

<?php echo do_shortcode(‘[prisna-google-website-translator]’); ?>

Could you try this?

return do_shortcode('[prisna-google-website-translator]').$items;

Please also check if the plugin or feature related to that shortcode is active.

Thanks!

Is there a way to add padding to the left of the widget area? I need it moved off the left edge a little bit.

Please give us the URL of the page so we could give you a tailored solution.

Thanks.

Add this to your Customizer’s custom CSS:

.prisna-gwt-align-left{
width:65%;
}

hope it helps
thanks.

Please try this instead :

.prisna-gwt-align-left {
width: 65%;
margin: 0 auto;
display: block;
}

Thanks.
