I am trying to: Create a Genesis Layout Widget area

Link to my site: Local site, not available

I expected to see: The new Genesis widget I just created in the Layouts Genesis area

Instead, I got: Nothing

I created and registered a new Genesis child theme widget area (Footer Widget) in functions.php. It shows up in the Widgets area of WordPress. However, there's no corresponding Genesis Layout Types widget area entry in the Layouts editor - just the two default "Header Right" and "Primary Sidebar" widget areas.

If this is not available, can we get it in a future update?

Hi Harry,

Thank you for contacting Toolset support.

1. Please make sure that you are using latest version of Genesis theme.

2. Please deactivate/delete Toolset Genesis Integration as the latest version of Layouts is already integrated and integration plugin is now obsolete, you don’t need it anymore to make Layouts plugin work.

3. The problem is with only one widget (Footer Widget) that you have created or any other widget as well?

Thank you

Wow. Two components (this one and the Toolset Starter Theme) declared obsolete on two support threads in two days.

Yet the plugin is still listed for download: https://toolset.com/download/toolset-genesis-integration/

So is the theme: https://toolset.com/account/downloads/#toolset-themes

It sounds as if you folks need to do some housecleaning on the Download section, and let the user base know that some of the components have been depreciated.
