I am adding the following code to functions.php

function wpblog_widget()
{
    register_sidebar(array(
        'name' => __('Primary Sidebar', 'wpb'),
        'id' => 'primary_sidebar', // unique-sidebar-id
        'description' => '',
        'class' => '',
        'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
        'after_widget' => '</li>',
        'before_title' => '<h2 class="widgettitle">',
        'after_title' => '</h2>',
    ));

}

add_action('widgets_init', 'wpblog_widget');

This is to register a widget and to make the widget area visible I am dding this code in sidebar.php

<?php if ( is_active_sidebar( 'Primary Sidebar' ) ) : ?>

    <?php dynamic_sidebar( 'Primary Sidebar' ); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

I don’t know why it is not working? I have seen the code here https://www.wpblog.com/how-to-add-custom-widget-area-to-wordpress-themes/

Is your widget position showing in the backend? And if so, what have you tried to include in that widget position?
