genesis_register_sidebar( array(
'id' => 'welcome-text-before-header',
'name' => __( 'Header Right', 'genesis' ),
'description' => __( 'This is widget area.', 'customtheme' ),
) );
add_action( 'genesis_header', 'genesis_header_area' );
function genesis_header_area() {
genesis_widget_area( 'welcome-text-before-header', array(
'before' => '<div class="genesis_header_css widget-area">',
'after' => '</div>',
