I am willing to be that since you have not initialized the widgets pool it cannot be duplicated. So within your main class or plugin file you would add this: For Class: add_action ( ‘widgets_init’, array ( &$this, ‘my_widgets’ ) ); For .php file add_action ( ‘widgets_init’, ‘my_widgets’); then create your function public function my_widgets(){ … Read more
I would use the is_active_sidebar() conditional: <?php if ( is_active_sidebar( ‘footer’ ) ) { ?> <div id=”sidebar-footer”> <?php dynamic_sidebar( ‘footer’ ); ?> </div> <?php } ?> That way, you can conditionally output the styled container itself.
There are several things you could do to achieve what you want. You could: create a new gallery with just the landscape images and include this new gallery into the sidebar; try different thumbnail settings in the NGG options (ignore aspect ratio or not, set height and width to the same value and thus show … Read more
This can be done using a simple build-in WordPress command. An example of your situation: <?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { echo ‘<a href=”#” class=”write-new-post”>Write New Post</a>’; } else { echo ‘<a href=”#” class=”Login”>Login</a>’; } ?>
I would not recommend that. Much easier to use a clearfix hack to force clearing and just add that style to your widget. Clearfix hacks are transparent: it doesn’t matter if they happen on all elements there is no visible difference, other than clear floats. Somewhere in your themes style.css: .widget:before, .widget:after { content: ” … Read more
Interesting task indeed. Here’s what I would do: Create my own plugin with a widget. You can always use plugin boilerplate or widget boilerplate as starting points. My widget would look like the default calendar, except it would also have the ‘prev”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”next’ links, as you mentioned. I would then copy-paste and adjust the get_calendar() function … Read more
Use PHP’s unserialize function: <?php $data=”a:2:{i:0;s:12:”Sample array”;i:1;a:2:{i:0;s:5:”Apple”;i:1;s:6:”Orange”;}}”; $unserialized = unserialize($data); echo ‘<pre>’; print_r($unserialized); echo ‘</pre>’; ?> Result: Array ( [0] => Sample array [1] => Array ( [0] => Apple [1] => Orange ) ) Got the sample data over at unserialize.com, a handy little site if you want to quickly check what’s inside that … Read more
The default widgets do not offer any hooks for that. You have to replace the default widget and add your field to the new class. The other option would be using JavaScript to insert the field, and a filter for ‘update_option_widget_’ . $widget->id_base to save the value. I think the separate class is the cleaner … Read more
Your problem is due to your trying to include a file over the http protocol. That kind of include is disabled on your server– hence the message saying pretty much just that. Use get_template_directory instead, which will give you a filesystem path. If that does not solve it, post your code in more context. Disjointed … Read more
Try to replace ‘post__in’ => array($instance[‘postsToShow’]), with ‘post__in’ => explode(“,”, $instance[‘postsToShow’]), to feed the post__in with an array. Your current array looks like array(“123,456,789”) but should be like array(“123”, “456”, “789”)
