Overview
This plugin is designed to simplify the process of adding column classes to widgets for users of the Genesis Framework, though it is versatile enough to work with any theme utilizing traditional Bootstrap column classes. It offers a user-friendly interface, allowing users to select column classes via a dropdown menu and save their configurations effortlessly. While the plugin does not include CSS for the columns, it integrates seamlessly with custom themes, enabling the addition of user-defined classes through various filters such as `genesis_widget_column_classes` and `genesis_widget_column_classes_capability`. These filters offer flexibility to modify available column classes and the required capabilities for modifications, enhancing compatibility and customization. Users must ensure the necessary CSS is added within their theme for the plugin to function effectively.

Tried using thirds will not work on my theme the %’s are all wrong, pointless margin left makes the grid look out of place. Easier to write your own CSS.

Such a simple thing to add column classes to widget, but it makes working with genesis themes so much easier. Haven’t come across any bugs either, it just work.
