The problem is that I can't display wordpress archives or product categories in a custom layout, so i have looked at categories and search.php and I have been able to add custom layout to the page but i need to add widgets to the area.
These links demonstrate:
http://www.cavendish-furniture-mobility.co.uk/ ( this is a custom layout with widgets in the headerbar.
http://www.cavendish-furniture-mobility.co.uk/?s=chair ( I can't add a layout to this so i have edited search.php in order to allow consistent layout)
the second link doesn't have a widget area and I need to find a way of adding a widget area code into the php – is this possible or can you help me to get the search results, categories and product categories to display in a layout?
Thanks.
