“options are available under Presentation > Widgets.”
In wp 2.8.5, I don’t see such, just a numeric selector for how many instances.

I’m using the feedlist RSS reader as it gives fine control over feed presentation. It seems your plugin cannot handle URL’s containing ‘=’as it expects a list of parameter=value pairs? how do I solve this?

thanks

Hi Kaspars,
take a look at this plugin. I think it’s doing the same as your plugin. But the number of widgets is not restricted.

Kian, you cannot use two times the same widget. So, if you use it in a tab, you must leave it "unused" if you want the settings to be kept.

Hey Kaspars, I love your CFW plugin. I installed it on my site. But ran into a problem. When I added a widget into a different sidebar. I lost the settings of CFW widgets in other sidebar. Can you help me with this?

Li-An, here is another way how to solve that.

Larry, I don't really understand what you mean, but if you simply want to customize the widget that you are going to use inside tabbed widget, then create an "invisible" sidebar where you put and configure those widgets before selecting them from the tabbed widget drop-down menu.

The only way I found to manage the configuration of a widget is to activate it another place than the tabbed thing (it is marked as desactivate in the widged page), make your changes and desactivate it. The changes will be shown in the tabbed thing !

Hi Kaspars

I am trying your tabbed widget plugin and like the cocept. The question I have is how can you edit the functions within the widget?

For example, I have a Page widget that allows the exclusion of specific pages. But once selected, you can’t edit. If you have seen the fun with tabbed widgets plugin, it solves those problem, but isn’t nearly as browser friendly.

Do you have a workaround?
