Assuming the Parent Theme’s Widget is registered at the widgets_init
hook, all you need to do is wrap your unregister_widget()
call inside of a function, hook that function into widgets_init
, and give your hook a higher priority number than the Parent Theme’s widgets_init
-hooked function.
Assuming the Parent Theme hooks into widgets_init
without giving a priority number, the function will default to 10
. So, just give your hook call a priority of 11
or greater.
