I’m not using sidebar and I’m new to web design. Are there useful widgets to use in the widget element that could be placed anywhere else on the web page beside sidebar? Just interested in how people use widgets. Thx
Hello @PlanetPluto,
Thanks for writing in!
A widget in WordPress is a piece of code that perform specific action. There are bunch of widgets that you can use which also depends on the nature of website and requirement.
A blog related website usually will have Recent Post, most popular article as link in the displayed using widgets. It can also have social media profile and feeds. A corporate website can have a short information about company and it’s products or services. A personal blog can have snippet about the person behind the blog. So, it all depends on the requirement.
If you would like to take a look at popular WordPress widgets, please take a look at following resources:
