No problem Satrya. You will want to look at something like:

Get The Category

Which will fetch the category for that particular post its querying over. Then give us a way to display that by selecting a checkbox or something that says, “Display categories” in widget. Finally, give us a way to control that through CSS with a div like <div class=”rpwe-category”></div> so we can style it.

Yeah you nailed it satrya. Pretty much I like to have the category displayed along with the post.

Maybe if you ever have the time, implementing a way to determine what gets display and what doesn’t would be handy.

With a wordpress query, you can typically pull in the categories if you need too and display them with the post.

In riches case, he also needs a way to display the category link of all posts underneath that category. I basically need the same thing.

Yeah I figured that much. I was just looking through Ace Editor’s configurations earlier and wondering if it was even worth the effort.

I guess I’ll keep looking. Thanks for the fast response. *high five* for Monakai ??

Yeah I did notice the amr-widget gets added to classes now as well that sit underneath the “Shortcode Any Widgets” widget area.

Something along with these updates was causing issues with Multi Social Widget. I decided to just remove the widget and build the function I needed from scratch. Now that I have it working, I’ll keep an eye out for additional bugs if I see any with AMR Shortcode Any Widget.

Anmari that appears to have fixed the issue with the side disappearing.

It didn’t fix the widget I was having troubles getting to work with though with the newer version.

If you download, “Multi Social Widget” and throw it into the Shortcodes area and reference it with the proper ID it doesn’t appear to work in 2.0+ versions. It could be Multi Social Widget’s problem, but it works in 1.8. Any thoughts?

You can use username: brandensilva from Social network Dribbble to test it out if you like.

satryra,

Would it at least be possible to display the category with a link to it if we checkbox something that says “Display category”?

Right now I list the category with each of my posts in a normal WP Query. I can’t really do that with this plugin on my home page though even though its clear you are pulling the categories in a list for us to highlight which post to select from.

By the way anmari, to answer your question for this post the ID field for the created widget sidebar is not capital. I keep all my IDs in lowercase for the reasons you listened in your first post. Only the title itself is capitalized like the following example.

register_sidebar(array(
    'name'          => __('Secondary', 'roots'),
    'id'            => 'sidebar-secondary',
    'before_widget' => '<section class="widget %1$s %2$s">',
    'after_widget'  => '</section>',
    'before_title'  => '<h3>',
    'after_title'   => '</h3>',
  ));

If I were to plug this in at the end of my registered widgets with version 2 of your plugin, it would disappear.

I’m also experiencing the same issue as NL-UK.

The entire last widget area (which was titled Header) I had defined in my functions.php file disappeared. I tried doing an entirely different name for the widget area, recreating it, etc without any luck.

I also had my last particular widget stop working that was listed in the appropriate widget area so it could be referenced. I tried changing to an ID from what was a title to see if that would bring the widget back but it did not.

I’ve since reverted to 1.8 and its back to normal. Hopefully these issues get fixed soon.
