Is There A Hook To Process The Content Of The Text Widget?
Filter widget_text (for the text) widget_title (for the title) Example function add_smiley($content) { $new_content=””; $new_content.= $content . ‘:)’; return $new_content; } add_filter(‘widget_text’, ‘add_smiley’); Note that this works only for the content so not if you have a widget with only a title.
