HTML Inserter

An ultralight, dead-simple text and HTML insertion widget for WordPress dynamic sidebars

Obsolete HTML Inserter-style functionality appears in Wordpress sidebars by default as of version 2.8, rendering HTML Inserter obsolete.

Overview HTML Inserter allows you to directly enter text into your dynamic sidebar, giving you more design control and faster editing of semi-static text.

Download Download the plugin and readme file (2.1k, .zip).

Installation

Unzip the the plug-in and copy the file HTMLInserter.php to your plugins folder at /wp-content/plugins/.

Text and HTML insertion is performed by using the plugin editor built into WordPress, or by editing the HTMLInserter.php file directly with a separate text editor. Position in the sidebar is set from the WordPress widget page


Tips

While you can get away with it if you're careful, I'd advise against editing text while the plugin is active.

To make multiple text and HTML insertions into a single sidebar, duplicate the HTMLInserter.php file, then change all instances of HTMLInsert in the source to HTMLInsert2.

Change the file name to HTMLInserter2.php, and place it in /wp-content/plugins/. It will now appear as a separate plugin, which you can modify and place independently.
