Widget CSS Classes

Skildring

Widget CSS Classes gives you the ability to add custom classes and ids to your WordPress widgets

Please note that this plugin doesn’t enable you to enter custom CSS. You’ll need to edit your theme’s style.css or add another
plugin that allows you to input custom CSS.

This plugin also adds additional classes to widgets to help you style them easier:

  • widget-first: added to the first widget in a sidebar
  • widget-last: added to the last widget in a sidebar
  • widget-odd: added to odd numbered widgets in a sidebar
  • widget-even: added to even numbered widgets in a sidebar
  • widget-#: added to every widget, such as widget-1, widget-2

Features

  • Adds a text field to a widget for defining a class
  • You can specify multiple classes by putting a space between them
  • Optionally adds checkboxes with predefined classes
  • Optionally adds a text field to add an id to a widget
  • Adds first and last classes to the first and last widget instances in a sidebar
  • Adds even/odd classes to widgets
  • Adds number classes to widgets
  • Fully translatable
  • Multi-site compatible
  • Compatible with Widget Logic, Widget Context, and WP Page Widget plugins
  • Has filters and hooks for customizing output including class names

Installasjon

  1. Upload the folder /widget-css-classes/ to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress
  3. Configure the settings under Settings > Widget CSS Classes
  4. Visit Appearance > Widgets to add or change the custom classes and ids for a widget.
  5. Expand the appropriate widget in the desired sidebar.
  6. You’ll see a field labeled CSS Class. Depending on your settings, this will be a text field and/or checkboxes.
  7. If you are using the text field you can enter multiple class names by separating them with a space.
  8. If you’ve enabled the id field, you will see a text field called CSS ID.

Why aren’t the classes showing up in my widget?

You need to make sure you have an HTML element defined for before_widget and after_widget in your active theme’s register_sidebar functions,
usually located in your theme’s functions.php (/wp-content/themes/yourtheme/functions.php).

This HTML element must have class and id attributes. This plugin will not work if before_widget and after_widget are blank.

Example:
register_sidebar( array(
'name' => 'Sidebar',
'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
'after_widget' => '</div>',
'before_title' => '<h2 class="widget-title">',
'after_title' => '</h2>'
) );

How do I add the CSS for my custom class?

There are two ways:

  1. Edit your theme’s style.css file (usually located in /wp-content/themes/yourtheme/).
  2. Use a plugin such as Simple Custom CSS.

How I export the Settings?

You can export the Settings from Settings > Widget CSS Classes > Import/Export.

What should I do if I find a bug?

Please file a bug report on GitHub.

A very useful plug-in for me as a front-end developer. It’s very easy now to address directly a widget with CSS code instead of all kind of different classes to use. Thanks very, very much!
