In the instructions for creating a new widget area it says the following:
"...And you'll need to reload WP->Presentation->Widgets 1-2 times before you can see the dynamic widget areas there and start adding widgets."

Where is the presentation area? Is that a typo or have I just never encountered it before in the 4 years i've been using WP?

I'm wondering about this b/c I can't seem to get my new widget area to create.

Thanks!

Ugh. Nevermind... it just seems to be having a slow time of it. Feel free to delete this thread.

The 'presentation area' is the front end of the site. BTW the only thing that has changed is the name 'new widget area' was changed to 'dynamic widger area' - the rest of the documentation is as it has always been.
