Thank you, James.

Taking your advice, I’m experiencing this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';', expecting ')' in /home/tempestus/public_html/wp-content/themes/xxxxxx/functions.php on line 137

My code (line 137 is the ‘before_widget’ code):

$backgroundimage = get_field('widget_background_image');

	register_sidebar( array(
		'name'          => __( 'Widgets', 'tempestcorp' ),
		'id'            => 'page-widget',
		'description'   => __( 'Appears on any of the assigned pages.', 'tempestcorp' ),
		'before_widget' => '<section id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s"><div style="background-image: url(' . $backgroundimage['url']; . ');">',
		'after_widget'  => '</div></section>',
		'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widget-title">',
		'after_title'   => '</h2>',
	) );
