“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. http://www.janek-niefeldt.de/blog/mycustomwidget/

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?

Li-An, this plugin takes care of situations when the code you would enter in a PHP "text widget" produces an error. Secondly, having the option to enter raw PHP might be a potential security risk. I use it for Popularity Contest and a few other plugins and so far I haven't had the need for raw PHP.

Interesting but the text widgets allowing php code seem to have the same use or am I bad ?

Are you still planning on releasing the Tabbed Widgets plugin? From the source and the way you described it looks to be a much cleaner implementation than some of the other options out there (which either break the sidebar entirely or still result in hardcoding). I’d definitely be interested in seeing it/using it/contributing if it was available.

Justin, I just sent you an email with the latest version of the tabbed widgets plugin that I am currently using.

I will release it officially (through WordPress Extend) once the documentation is done.
