Hello,
<br >as i understand - you want make page wich will contain your widget as page content.
<br >Therefor you should make new page type, for instance HomePage.php:
<br >

<br ><?php
<br >class HomePage extends Page {
<br >   static $db = array(
<br >   );
<br >   static $has_one = array(
<br >		"Widget" => "WidgetArea",
<br >   );
<br >
<br >	function getCMSFields() {
<br >		$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
<br >		$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Widgets", new WidgetAreaEditor("Widget"));
<br >		return $fields;
<br >	}
<br > 
<br >}
<br > 
<br >class HomePage_Controller extends Page_Controller {
<br >}
<br >?>

<br >
<br >and then you should make new layout for your HomePage, it should be HomePage.ss inside your Layout folder:
<br >
<br ><div class="typography">
<br >		<h2>$Title</h2>
<br >
<br >		$Widget
<br >
<br >		$Content
<br >		$Form
<br >		$PageComments
<br ></div>
<br >

<br >
<br >Hope it will help.
