## Description

Many times while developing themes for WordPress I had to empty widget areas after
cloning a site/setting up a site. This started to become annoying. Enter Empty Widget
Areas.

With just a click of a button you can empty the whole widget area and remove all
the widgets, giving you a fresh start to your widget life.

## Installation

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

e.g.

 1. Upload `empty-widget-area` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Go to Widgets and see it happen.

## FAQ

  I can’t see the Empty Widget Area-button

The widget area has to contain widgets in order to show. Also try expanding the 
widget area as the button is located inside the accordion item.

  I accidentally deleted my widget area. Can I undo it?

No, sir. The action is non reversible.
