Add option for sidebar paramater

    Hey I posted this on your blog, but thought this might be a better place for it:

    I’m wondering if it’s possible to add support for the sidebar id to be included for filtering. I know id is a paramater of dynamic_sidebar_params, but I can’t figure out how to integrate it.

    This is what I’d like be able to do:

    function my_widget_output_filter( $widget_output, $widget_type, $widget_id, $sidebar_id ) {
    if ( 'categories' == $widget_type && 'primary-sidebar' == $sidebar_id ) {
        $widget_output = str_replace('before', 'after', $widget_output);
    }
    return $widget_output;
}
add_filter( 'widget_output', 'my_widget_output_filter', 10, 3 );

    This would allow filtering on only specific widgets of specific sidebars instead of executing on every sidebar on the site.

    Thanks for the feedback on my other support question! That definitely cleared things up for me.

    After looking over dynamic_sidebar_params it seems like we should be able to add either name and/or id as an option. I think I’m starting to figure this out, but I’m a little shortsighted with how to incorporate the php…

    Name::

    $sidebar_name = $sidebar_params[0]['name'];

    Then we could do this:

    if ( 'categories' == $widget_type && 'Primary Sidebar' == $sidebar_name ) {
// regex
}

    ID

    $sidebar_name = $sidebar_params[0]['id'];
    Then we could do this:

    if ( 'categories' == $widget_type && 'primary-sidebar' == $sidebar_id ) {
// regex
}

    I don’t see why this wouldn’t work, any ideas how we could add this to the plugin??

    Here’s a small little plugin I made that adds Bootstrap markup to all built in widgets.

    Have you had a chance to look at into the sidebar feature yet??

    Hey Bryan, I’ve just released version 1.1 of Widget Output Filters which now includes the sidebar ID in the parameters it passes to the filter. ??
