If you check the box before ’show only on homepage’, it’ll ensure the block is shown on the page set as blog home. This is the solution to the issues with sites who have a static page set as their posts home page, while another static page is their site home page. The ‘home page only’ setting refers to the posts home page.

Change line 60 of admin_template_main.php

FROM

$wp_registered_widgets[$widget_id]['callback'] == ‘wp_widget_text’

$wp_registered_widgets[$widget_id]['name'] == ‘Text’

The above change will display text widget title. I have tested this is 2.8

Hi,
I’m having the same problem as mentioned before… With a static page chosen for the Blog (i.e. “Blog”), Custom Widgets doesn’t seem to be able to assign a widget to that page. Is there an update? Workaround? It works fine on any other static page. I’ll be happy to donate something once this is fixed ) This is an awesome plugin in every other aspect!!!

Thanks for this excellent plugin! I too am having issues with the title displaying in WP 2.8+ – I think it’s a problem with the way Wordpress handles widgets from 2.8 on.

I was able to change line 66 in admin_template_main.php to this:

echo !empty($wp_registered_widgets[$widget_id]['title']) ? $wp_registered_widgets[$widget_id]['title'] : $wp_registered_widgets[$widget_id]['id'];

….and now I actually get the generic title of the widget and the instance id but still no specific title. I’m not a PHP expert so I don’t really know what I’m doing, just messing around.

Does anyone know how to get the specific title to display? That seems to be the only thing missing from this awesome plugin at the moment…

Thanks,
Jonah

This is the second time I tried to comment. If it is duplicate, I am sorry.

My question revolves around the efficiency of this widget/plug-in in cases where a 300-400 page site may incorporate a unique widget for each page.

Will the plug-in be able to handle that many variable and if so, will it slow down the page load time.

Thanks. Awesome plug

Hello, i love your custom widget plugin and i’ve used it several times before without any problem but now i tryed using embed codes with text widgets to made custom ads and i faced a problem, the embeded object show perfectly in the home page but they stay blank in any other page where i try to show them. I’m not sure if your plugin is the cause but it’s the only thing different and before the swf files were showing no matter wich page i was seeing. Appreciate if you can help me. Even you saying that it’s not from your plugin is a big help, that way i know i must look into some other thing.

Thanks in advance,

Rui Santos
