Pass a different id
for each sidebar or you will overwrite the same sidebar again and again. You can also just leave the id
argument out, and WordPress will create one automatically.
Side note:
__( $area. ' Widgets' )
and
__( 'Widgets in this area will appear on the ' . $area )
… are wrong. The translation function expects a second parameter textdomain
, and you cannot use a variable in the string that should be translated.
Use sprintf()
with a placeholder to pass the variable, and use a context function to explain the parameter:
sprintf(
_x(
'%s Widgets',
'%s = widget area name',
'your_theme_textdomain'
),
$area
)
