| 51 | +To use a widget in the templates, you have to use the ``import_widget`` tag inside the ``html`` block. | |
| 52 | +You can also set the variable that the widgets of an area will be imported. | |
| 53 | +Or you can use the default name, which is ``widgets_area_name``. | |
| 54 | +For example, in the ``profile`` area the variable name is ``widgets_profile``. | |
| 55 | +This variable will be inserted directly in the page ``context``. | |
