<p>Code to Widget Plugin uses PHP files from a specified directory, and (if the file has the proper template tags) adds a Widget.</p>
<h3>Details</h3>
<p>Code to Widget provides an easy way to create widgets, without having to deal with writing the widget class everytime</p>
<h3>Configuration</h3>
<p>The plugin provides an interface for selecting a specific folder to search for widgets in.  The folder path entered into the settings page must be an absolute path.  Then the widgets are easily configurable similar to all other widgets.</p>
<p>The files in the specified folder need to have specific template tags to be added as widgets.  The following code will need to be added to the top of the files:</p>
<pre><code><?php
/*
Widget Name: Test Widget 1
Widget Description: Test 1 widget
*/
?>
</code></pre>
<p>A “Widget Title:” field can also be added. That title will be set as the default widget title when the file is selected on the widget settings screen.</p>

<p>The usual Text widget allows you to insert arbitrary Text and/or HTML code. This allows that too, but also parses any PHP or JavaScript code in the text widget and executes it.</p>
<p>This plugin is based on “PHP Code Widget”, but now available for use by site administrators ONLY, which makes it more secure.</p>
<p>All PHP code must be enclosed in the standard php opening and closing tags ( <code><?php</code> and <code>?></code> ) for it to be recognized and executed. Also JavaScript code must be enclosed in the <code><script></code> and <code></script></code> tags, as usual.</p>


Safe PHP Code Widget

Adds a secure and simple widget in which you can use PHP and JavaScript code. Also you can use unfiltered HTML or just Text. Admin Use Only.
