About the Author Widget
Adds an "About the Author" sidebar widget that shows the current post author's photo, bio and a link to their other posts, and hides itself on other pages.
Snippet Library
Widgets snippets for WordPress
Snippets for widgets and sidebars: restore the classic widget screen, register new widget areas, remove default widgets and allow shortcodes in text widgets. For classic themes and sites that still lean on sidebars.
Featured Post Widget
Adds a "Featured Post" widget that highlights one post or page you pick, shown as a card with its featured image, excerpt and a read-more link.
Filters Widget Area Above the Shop
Registers a "Shop Filters" widget area and shows it above the product grid on shop and category pages, a natural home for price, attribute and rating filters.
Hide a Sidebar on Selected Pages or Post Types
Empties a widget area on the pages or post types you choose, for example to keep the sidebar off landing pages and checkout pages.
Link Widget Titles to a Page
Adds a "Title link" field to every classic widget, turning its title into a link, for example from "Latest News" to your news page.
Pages Widget: Exclude Pages and Sort by Menu Order
Hides pages such as Privacy Policy or Thank You from the Pages widget and sorts the rest by their menu order.
Random Quote Widget
Adds a "Random Quote" widget that shows a different quote, tip or testimonial from your list on each page view, with the source shown below it.
Recent Posts Widget With Thumbnails
Adds a "Recent Posts With Thumbnails" widget that lists your latest posts with a small featured image and optional date, for classic sidebars.
Remove Unused Default Widgets
Unregisters rarely used classic widgets (Meta, Calendar, RSS, Tag Cloud, Pages and Recent Comments) to declutter the widget list.
Schedule Widgets With Start and End Dates
Adds "Show from" and "Show until" date fields to every classic widget, so a promotion, event notice or holiday message appears and disappears on its own.
Show Widgets Only on Certain Page Types
Adds a "Show on" setting to every classic widget, so you can limit it to the homepage, single posts, blog and archive pages, or everywhere except those.
Widget Area Shortcode
Adds a [widget_area] shortcode that prints any widget area inside a page, post or block template, so the same widgets can be reused anywhere.
Widget Area at the Top of Every Page
Adds a "Top Bar" widget area that prints right after the opening body tag, handy for a contact line, social links or a short promo across the whole site.
