WP_Customize_Widgets::preview_sidebars_widgets() public WP 3.9.0

When previewing, ensures the proper previewing widgets are used.

Because wp_get_sidebars_widgets() gets called early at {@see 'init' } (via wp_convert_widget_settings()) and can set global variable $_wp_sidebars_widgets to the value of `get_option( sidebars_widgets before the Customizer preview filter is added, it has to be reset after the filter has been added.

{} It's a method of the class: WP_Customize_Widgets{}

No Hooks.

Return

Array.

Usage

$WP_Customize_Widgets = new WP_Customize_Widgets();
$WP_Customize_Widgets->preview_sidebars_widgets( $sidebars_widgets );

$sidebars_widgets(array) (required)

List of widgets for the current sidebar.
