You can easily create a horizontal responsive widget area, add widgets to it and display them in main column (page, post, theme template files etc) of your WordPress site. The column is fully responsive and it automatically adjusts itself in all screen sizes.
Responsive Column Widgets lets you do this in a very easy way. Simply install and activate it. The plugin is highly customizable and provides you many options and features you can set from Dashboard -> Appearance -> Responsive Column Widgets page.
Now visit Dashboard -> Appearance -> Widgets page and drag widgets to new added widget area called Responsive Column Widgets. After adding widgets you can display them via shortcode or PHP code given there on the admin page.
