Makes the last widget in the sidebar stick to the top of the screen while the visitor scrolls long posts, a good spot for a newsletter form or ad.

Adds a "Recent Posts With Thumbnails" widget that lists your latest posts with a small featured image and optional date, for classic sidebars.
Creates additional widget areas, such as a shop sidebar or a blog sidebar, that you can fill under Appearance > Widgets and place with a shortcode or theme hook.
Styles each sidebar widget as a card with a border, rounded corners, an underlined title and tidy list dividers.
