Super simple WP Plugin (Widget)

Hi,

I need a WP Plugin created for a super simple widget that you just drag to where it needs to be. No settings can be configured, only drag and drop.

On the front-end it should then display a linked image. That's all.

I have messed a bit around and tried this:

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Img-widget
Plugin URI: http://test.com
Description: To automatically display sidebar img.
Version: 1.0
Author: test
Author URI: http://test.com
*/
error_reporting(E_ALL);
add_action("widgets_init", array('Widget_name', 'register'));
class Widget_name {
  function control(){
    echo 'I am a control panel';
  }
  function widget($args){
    echo $args['before_widget'];
    echo $args['before_title'] . 'Your widget title' . $args['after_title'];
    echo '<img src="https://tpc.googlesyndication.com/simgad/11090750883171998112">';
    echo $args['after_widget'];
  }
  function register(){
    register_sidebar_widget('Widget name', array('Widget_name', 'widget'));
    register_widget_control('Widget name', array('Widget_name', 'control'));
  }
}
?>

PHP:

But it doesn't seem to work at all.

Anyone who could give a point in the right direction.

 

Hi there,

I've just tests it on my own site, WP version 3.5.1 and a custom theme.
It is working perfect.

You just have to be sure that you put your PHP file in plugins/ folder.
Then you have to activate the plugin.
Then go to "widgets" setting and you should find it as "Widget Name".
Drag & Drop works and your plugin is visble in my sidebar.

Hey Marcel,

Yeah it did work actually, I messed up some settings on my test-server that caused everything to make errors

Thanks for your reply though!
