Overwrite Toolset Bootstrap parent theme widget arrays. For example, change 'aside' for sidebar widget to 'section' when using Toolset Bootstrap parent theme. Because of the 'if' statement in parent theme functions.php I can overwrite this by declaring the same function name in my child theme functions.php. Other method: http://wp-types.com/foru…

functions.php

    register_sidebar(array(

        'description' => __('Appears on posts and pages except the optional full width page template', 'wpbootstrap'),

        'before_widget' => '<section id="%1$s" class="wsis-widget %2$s">',

        'after_widget' => '</section>',
