The latest version of the Share Widget plugin (1.3.0) still contains a minor bug that causes WordPress to throw a deprecation warning in the dashboard-settings sub-menu. Of course, the warning only appears if WordPress is in ‘Debug’ mode, i.e., if the line
define('WP_DEBUG', true); has been added to the wp-config.php file.
Eventually it may cause more than a warning, but it is very simple to fix. Here is a screenshot of the deprecation warning.
The code causing the warning is at line 178 in share-widget.php:
add_options_page(__(‘Share-Widget Options’, ‘share-widget’), __(‘Share-Widget’, ‘share-widget’), 8, __FILE__, ‘sharewidget_plugin_options’);
Simply change the 8 to ‘manage_options’ (including the quotes) so the line becomes:
add_options_page(__(‘Share-Widget Options’, ‘share-widget’), __(‘Share-Widget’, ‘share-widget’), ‘manage_options’, __FILE__, ‘sharewidget_plugin_options’);
It seems to work fine, I would just rather have something a little more noticeable.
]]>After installing and configuring the widget, I don’t see it in the widgets page. Nothing shows up on the pages either.
]]>It doesn’t display at all neither on posts nor pages.. regardless the configuration ??
]]>I don’t see a widget or any shortcode or anything for the plugin, what makes it show up?
]]>The Share-Widget plugin is fully functional. It’s very fast, faster than other similar tools. I really appreciate the loading speed and the inclusion of the URL shortening service.
