Code to Widget Plugin uses PHP files from a specified directory, and (if the file has the proper template tags) adds a Widget.
<h3>Details</h3>
Code to Widget provides an easy way to create widgets, without having to deal with writing the widget class everytime
<h3>Configuration</h3>
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.
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:
<pre><code><?php
/*
Widget Name: Test Widget 1
Widget Description: Test 1 widget
*/
?>
</code></pre>
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.

SyntaxHighlighter Evolved

Just what I was looking for.
Thank you guys.

Perfect

I'm a longtime user of syntaxhighlighter evolved, so thanks for the excellent plugin!

The only downside I've recently experienced is the lack of bbPress integration, hence 4 stars rather than 5. If you need this for non-bbPress projects, this is a great choice.

longtime fan, but no bbpress support


It works and show code beautifully on pages, But if you copied that code and want to use it, the it shows errors, Looks like it add some spaces,



I tried it with php shorcode, and when i copied the code from the frontend of the page, It gives Parse error: syntax error, unexpected...


Works, But if you copy code and wan to to use it show error
