You should be able to drag the slide up or down. This is possible in the pro version at least. Try it

Greg,

It works great now thanks!
Keep up the good work.

anmari,

Good info. Seems like your trying to integrate consumers ideas into your plugin. I applaud you for that.

Maybe you should have a plugin called amr just-shortcode any widget
and amr shortcode any widget advanced.

I still think the real strength of this plugin lies in the ability to have your widgets show up where you place the short code. I believe it is in that simple (that word again) ability that makes this plugin truly shine.

I think you can have your themes widget css apply. I also think that it should be off by default with a check box to apply the css if that is what you wish.

Widgets get changed around all the time when switching between themes.
It would be great if your plugin had the ability to save all the widgets but then it would be a different plugin.

Personally I can’t believe that this is still a WordPress Problem. Would be great if WordPress saved “WIDGET STRIPS” in the inactive area, in order and separated complete with the old widget section name i.e. “Primary Widget Area” – I can dream.

I like to dialog even if my thoughts seem a bit crazy.

Thanks Again,
Monty Dean

Let me start off by saying I love this plugin. It open up a ton of possibilities when creating WordPress sites.

Where as I do agree that one should learn the joys of the ‘inspect element’ tools I also believe in keeping things simple.

That is not to say that there is anything simple about your plugin as far as code and work that goes into plugin.

I say simple in respects to I put your shortcode in a page, header, post or sidebar and voila a widget would function there.

I like to upgrade plugins that won’t cause my sidebars to collapse and my widgets to all be moved into the inactive widget area. Part of this is laziness on my part because your plugin always worked all the way up to 1.8.

I also have certain clients that like to get hands-on with their sites and will upgrade plugins when it tells them too much like “Pavlov’s Dogs” (yes I tell them to wait and often falls on deaf ears).

Version 2.1 may have a lot more under the hood but it seems very buggy to me. For now I have to roll back to 1.8 and make sure to tell WordPress it’s 2.1 so clients don’t update.

Again love the plugin and your hard work and looking forward to a stable 2.2.

I agree with you. Sometimes it is necessary if you are looking for a quick fix and client is breathing down your neck.

I’m actually using your plugin not for the sidebar but for the main page area (using shortcodes). I really love how your plugin allows for some flexibility in the way posts are displayed. I use it regularly for my sidebars

Anyway your suggestion worked like a charm when I modified
#sidebar and adapted it to the main page section.

If you have any further suggestions – I’m all ears.
Thanks again and keep up the great work.

I used your suggestion but it did not change anything.
Something was overriding the style.

I then tried your suggestion and added the !important value, for example:

a.pis-title-link
{
font-family: “Times New Roman”, Georgia, Times, Serif !important;
}

Now everything is great!

Thanks for your help and keep up the good work!

I have had this problem in the past and there is a workaround.
you a plugin called Shortcode-any-widget.
Once you have the shortcode put that code in a text widget and use that
text widget with Display-Widgets. It will make more sense when you look at the Shortcode-any-widget.

Same problem here. If I have “Show On Selected” chosen and I check the pages and save – the widget does not show up on selected pages. If I have
“Hide On Selected” chosen the widget will show up.

I’m using WordPress 3.5.1
I’m using Display Widgets 1.24
