Register Extra Widget Areas
Creates additional widget areas, such as a shop sidebar or a blog sidebar, that you can fill under Appearance > Widgets and place with a shortcode or theme hook.
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.
Remove Unused Default Widgets
Unregisters rarely used classic widgets (Meta, Calendar, RSS, Tag Cloud, Pages and Recent Comments) to declutter the widget list.
Run Shortcodes in Widget Titles
Processes shortcodes typed into classic widget titles, for example to show the current year or a dynamic label.
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.
Show Widgets Only to Logged-In or Logged-Out Visitors
Adds a "Show to" setting to every classic widget so you can display it to everyone, only to logged-in users, or only to visitors who are not logged in.
Sidebar Widgets as Cards (SCSS)
Styles each sidebar widget as a card with a border, rounded corners, an underlined title and tidy list dividers.
Social Profiles Widget
Adds a "Social Profiles" widget with links to your profiles on Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Bluesky, Mastodon and more, as an accessible list of text links.
Tag Cloud Widget: Most Popular Tags Only
Limits the Tag Cloud widget and block to your most used tags and orders them by popularity, so the cloud stays readable on sites with hundreds of tags.
Tag Cloud as Pills (SCSS)
Restyles the Tag Cloud widget and block as a tidy row of rounded pills with equal font sizes, which reads better than a jumble of sizes.
Use the Classic Widgets Screen
Restores the classic Widgets screen and Customizer widget panel instead of the block-based widget editor.
Widget Area Above Single Posts
Registers a "Before Post Content" widget area and shows its widgets at the top of every blog post, ideal for notices, ads or a table of contents widget.
Widget Area Above the Footer
Registers an "Above the Footer" widget area and shows its widgets in a responsive row just above the site footer, in classic and block themes.
Widget Area Below Single Posts
Registers an "After Post Content" widget area and displays it at the end of single posts, without editing theme files.
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.
