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.
Archives Widget: Yearly Links and a Limit
Changes the classic Archives widget to list years instead of months and caps how many entries it shows, keeping the sidebar short on old blogs.
Categories Widget: Top Level Only, Busiest First
Makes the Categories widget list only top-level categories and sorts them by number of posts, so a long category tree becomes a short list of your main sections.
Contact Details Widget
Adds a "Contact Details" widget for your address, phone number, email and opening hours, with tap-to-call and spam-protected email links.
Custom CSS Classes for Widgets
Adds a "CSS classes" field to every classic widget, so you can style individual widgets from your theme or a CSS snippet.
Even Font Sizes in the Tag Cloud
Limits the tag cloud to 30 tags with font sizes between 12 and 18 pixels, so it looks tidy in narrow sidebars.
Exclude Categories From the Categories Widget
Hides chosen categories from the classic Categories widget list or dropdown.
Exclude a Category From the Recent Posts Widget
Keeps posts from the categories you choose out of the classic Recent Posts widget, for example sponsored posts or internal news.
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 Pingbacks From the Recent Comments Widget
Leaves pingbacks and trackbacks out of the Recent Comments widget and the Latest Comments block, so they show only real conversations.
Hide Staff Replies in the Recent Comments Widget
Leaves comments written by authors, editors and administrators out of the Recent Comments widget, so it highlights what readers are saying.
Hide Widget Titles That Start With "!"
Lets you keep a descriptive widget title in the admin but hide it on the site, just by starting the title with an exclamation mark.
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.
Hide the Current Post From the Recent Posts Widget
Stops the classic Recent Posts widget from listing the post that is currently being viewed.
Keep the Last Sidebar Widget in View
Makes the last widget in the sidebar stick to the top of the screen while the visitor scrolls long posts, a good spot for a newsletter form or ad.
Limit the Blocks Available in the Widget Editor
Restricts the block widget editor and the Customizer to a short list of blocks that make sense in sidebars, keeping widget areas tidy for clients.
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.
Most Discussed Posts Widget
Adds a "Most Discussed Posts" widget that lists the posts with the most comments, all-time or from the last few weeks, with optional comment counts.
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 Follows the Current Category
Makes the classic Recent Posts widget list posts from the same category as the post being read, turning it into a simple related posts list.
Recent Posts Widget Includes Custom Post Types
Makes the Recent Posts widget list your custom post types, such as portfolio items, recipes or events, together with blog posts.
Recent Posts Widget With Thumbnails
