the_content filter on the text

  • Hi,

    this is not so good idea to use a filter named “the_content” which is in use by wordpress also.
    Now I added something on the “the_content” filter, but it showed up on the image widget as well, because of the same filter name.

    This is the line in your files:
    $output .= apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $instance[‘text’] );
    You should use another name for it.

    It’s fairly common to use the_content filter outside the loop to apply formatting and sanitize text.

    If you do use it for appending text to posts, you may want to look into in_the_loop() or other ways to limit the context in which it’s applied. You can find more information about this filter here.
