To Insert Widget
Inserting widget is just a matter of drag and drop. However, click and hold on the widget icon from the menu and drag it to the drop point. Follow the picture above.
Content Tab
Using the Content tab, you can basically make a layout of a particular part of the website.
Layout
Go to Content Tab> Layout
The first section Layout gives you an option and a switcher. This is the basic layout of the Business Hours widget when you chose Static as Style.
However, when you change the Style option to Dynamic, you will get the Additional section in the Content tab. Also, a new option Timezone will appear in the Layout section. Again, turning on the Show Header switcher will show the Header section both in the Content tab and Style tab. Even, the Business Days and Times section will change to Dynamic Days and Times.
Header
Go to Content Tab> Header
In this section, you can turn on/off the clock and date on the Header of the WordPress business hours plugin. You can also align it as well.
Dynamic Days and Times
This section mainly contains repeaters to control the days. You can add more repeaters or remove previous ones simply. You will get more options to edit inside a repeater. When you turn on the Style This Day switcher, you will get additional options to edit the colors of the Business Hours widget.
Go to Content tab> Dynamic Days and Times> and see all options.
