WP plugin Ax-sidebar

With this plugin you can add extra HTML or just plain text when posting a new page or post. That content will be displayed in sidebar widget. Very good for inserting related links or other HTML content.

Its WP homepage is link

This is my first plugin for wordpress so it is maybe little messy and not wisely coded. I take no responsibility for this plugin. Use it at your own risk. Anyway it creates a new table in database for this content, so you don’t need to worrie about data loss or something. Plugin only saves data into its own table.

Installation is very easy. After activating this plugin you can add ax-sidebar data into post. No extra configuration needed- only add widget to sidebar and you are good to go.

It’s only tested in wordpress 2.6 so I really dont know does it work in previous versions. Maybe I will develop it furter, so feel free post me a comment or feature request if you want. And some screenshots to visualize it.

    I haven’t tested this yet but it looks really cool. It is one of things I would never have thought to do but could be quite useful.

    Really creative there.

    istari,

    Maybe your database user used for WP does not have CREATE permissions. This is important because this plugin creates new table into database. My both blogs are at version 2.6 and this plugin works. About other versions I really dont know, and it is mentioned above.

    Great plugin. But is it possible to call axe sidebar manually on wordpress instead of having widget?
    On some posts I have different theme which doesn’t have sidebars and no widget is active on it.

    In fact, I don’t know. Iave no time to test it also right now. But If you gonna change your theme anyway (as I can understand) why not add widget area for that as well. It should be easy, if I can remember right.
