## Description

**WARNING: USE ONLY WITH JAVASCRIPT! The backend of this plugin works only with 
browser with javascript enabled**

This plugin allows to dynamically activate the widgets system on a WordPress page,
creating complex layouts.

You can define new layout via the function `register_layout()` in the function.php
file of your theme.
 The plugin define two sample defaults layouts that you can 
see in Screenshots section.

e.g.

    ```
    <?php
    // <your_theme>/function.php
    if ( function_exists('register_layout') ){
        register_layout(array(
            'name' => 'Name of Layout',
            'zones' => array( 'name of zone one', 'name of zone two', 'name of zone three' [, ...] ),
            'thumbnail' => 'thumbnail-of-layout.jpg', // with extension (jpg/gif/png)
            'template' => 'name-of-php-template-file' // without extension
        ));
    }
    ?>
    ```

The code of the new template plans to use a new property of the global object $post:
$post-> layout

e.g.

    ```
    <?php 
    $zones = $post->layout['zones'];
    foreach ($zones as $zone){
        dynamic_sidebar($zones[0])
    }
    ?>
    ```

 * The php template file should be placed in the folder `layouts` of your theme 
   folder (`/wp-content/themes/<your_theme>/layouts/<name-of-php-template-file>.
   php`) or in the plugin folder (`/wp-content/plugins/page-layout/layouts/<name-
   of-php-template-file>.php`) if you want the layout to be independent from the
   theme.
 * The thumbnail should be placed in the child folder of `layouts`: `layouts/thumb/
   <thumbnail-of-layout.jpg>`.
 * If you want to include also a related css file separate from the theme installed
   you can create it in `/wp-content/plugins/page-layout/css/page-layout-general.
   css` or for each php template `/wp-content/plugins/page-layout/css/page-layout-
   <name-of-php-template-file>.css`.
 * The plugin include a simple widget to display the content of current page
