How about native Thickbox with the native jQuery tabs for example: the widget it self is simple and only has a link but one you click on it the thickbox pops up and shows all of the options grouped by tabs: let me know what you think I’ll fetch the code for you.
widget() method is called when widget is rendered, so the style you’re enqueuing are printed in the footer (header is already printed at that time). Even if majority of browser can render styles linked from page body, that’s invalid HTML because, according to HTML standards, unlike scrypts, styles must be placed in page <head>. (Try … Read more
The why part can be found in ticket #24889. Let me quote @azaozz: When support for multi-use widgets was introduced, a lot of widgets got converted from “single” to “multi” at the same time. To keep backward compatibility and not break the existing widgets, there was some conversion code that would set the “single” widgets … Read more
Your problem is that you’re calling the wrong method for generating the name attribute. It should be $this->get_field_name(‘via_cat’) Also, you can use wp_dropdown_categories(), no need to reinvent the wheel: wp_dropdown_categories(array( ‘name’ => $this->get_field_name(‘via_cat’), ‘selected’ => (int)$instance[‘via_cat’], ));
Filter the arguments for the blogroll: add_filter( ‘widget_links_args’, ‘wpse_76521_filter_blogroll’ ); function wpse_76521_filter_blogroll( $args ) { $li_start = isset ( $args[‘before’] ) ? $args[‘before’] : ‘<li>’; $args[‘before’] = $li_start . ‘<i class=”icon-ok”></i>’; return $args; } Explanation The blogroll is created by the widget class WP_Widget_Links. This class calls wp_list_bookmarks() with some prepared widget arguments which we … Read more
All widgets in the admin area get an id in the style widget-[global_counter]_[widget_key]-[widget_id], like widget-59_monkeyman_widget_shortcut-5 (installed widget) or widget-11_monkeyman_widget_shortcut-__i__ (an uninstalled widget in the list). If your widget key contains something unique for all your widgets (like your company name), you can use this and add a substring attribute CSS selector (which works in most … Read more
Update: 12/19/15 : Here’s a plugin on Github that I developed (using the method in answer I provided below) adding support for changing all widget to bootstrap components/styling. Original Answer I understand not wanting to use javascript, but it seems like overkill in my opinion to completely create a new widget just for the list-group … Read more
The first location where PHP would look for relative path will not be the file you specify include in, but relative to point of entry file (index.php or whatever). Files are included based on the file path given or, if none is given, the include_path specified. If the file isn’t found in the include_path, include … Read more
On a parallel thread over on the WordPress hacks forum, someone suggested using in_the_loop() and that works some of the time, with some plugins that use either the_content and/or the_excerpt, but not all of the time with all the plugins I’ve been testing against. Likewise, I’ve now done further testing using is_main_query() and that works … Read more
