Widgets on Pages Plugin woes

    I am trying to use the widgets on pages plugin to do just that, put widgets into the page body on my site built with the Weaver 2010 template. The test is gettig the Amazon wishlist on my santa list page here:

    https://oceanaircycles.com/santa-list/

    I am able to get it to show up. Initally it was coming in all funny with section set into boxes. I went into the style sheet and removed the table code, and things were much better. As you can see the widget is still coming in with the bulet point though. I have tried inserting :
    sheet. div.widgets_on_page ul { list-style:none }
    as reccomended in the plugin faq but it has yet to do anyhing</p>
    <p>Any help is appreciated, FWIW I can fiddle with the code a bit, but by no means very good at it, hence using a plugin to solve my challenge.</p>
    <p>toddhalfpenny – Thank you for getting me this far</a>

  • Hey rperks,

    You’re almost there… try replacing your line

    sheet. div.widgets_on_page ul { list-style:none }

    with

    .widgets_on_page ul { list-style:none }

    That should do the trick.

    Thanks, that worked for a fix. The trick was pasting the

    .widgets_on_page ul { list-style:none }

    into the snippets section provided in the advanced admin for the theme, as opposed to putting it straight into the style sheet code itself.

    Fantastic widget

    Great news rperks!
    Could you set this topic to “resolved” then please?

    This did not do it for me:
    .widgets_on_page ul { list-style:none; }

    however after playing around awhile, all it needed was “li” to be added.
    .widgets_on_page ul li { list-style:none; }

    Hope this helps with anyone else who has problems with not being able to loose the list style.

    Thanks “The Health Rebel”…. the CSS needed really depends on the theme being used and it’s own associated CSS. What works for some may not always work for others… so putting up what fixed it for you will certainly be of help to others.

    Hi Todd,

    The plugin works perfect previously. However, upon upgrading to the latest wordpress version, the plugin has not been working, or that it doesnt show up on the website even when the shortcodes are still on the pages as i checked within wp.

    Kindly assist?

    Thanks!

    Hey Joe,

    Yeah sadly this does seem to have been the case on a few sites. I believe that the sidebars need re-populating… I would start by checking that the widgets are still there in the backend.

    As per the info I put against the latest release this upgrade was needed to stop widgets from disappearing if themes were modified or swapped… but it does come with the known risk that the widgets may be removed during the upgrade.

    Sorry if this causes any problems but the upgrade does make the plugin more robust going forward.
