<p>The Custom Classes plugin allows you to create custom classes for posts (when <code>post_class()</code> is called) and for the <code><body></code> class (when <code>body_class()</code> is called).  It creates a meta box on the edit post and edit term screens in the admin with input boxes for adding your custom classes.</p>
<p>Custom post classes are added whenever your theme calls the <code>post_class()</code> function, which is generally whenever a post is shown.  Custom body classes are added on the single view of the post whenever your theme calls the <code>body_class()</code> function.</p>

<h3>Will this work with custom post types?</h3>
<p>Certainly.  This plugin works with any public post type on your site.  It’s not just limited to the “post” post type.</p>
<h3>It’s not working!</h3>
<p>Most likely, this means your theme isn’t using the appropriate functions (<code>post_class()</code> and <code>body_class()</code>).  You’ll need to talk to your theme author to get them to fix this.  Or, better yet, use a correctly-coded theme from <a href="https://themehybrid.com/themes" rel="nofollow ugc">Theme Hybrid</a>!</p>

<p>A text widget based on the default WordPress text widget. Allows users to add custom classes to the widget container and the title tag.</p>
<p>It takes this:<br />
<h3 class=”widget-title”></p>
<p>And allows you to do this:<br />
<h3 class=”widget-title custom-class custom-class-2 etc”></p>
<p>It also allows users to add custom classes to the widget container.</p>
<p><em>NEW</em><br />
If the sidebar registration in your theme’s function file does not contain any HTML for before or after the title of the widget, this now will now fill that with an <code><h4></code> tag set.</p>
<h3>General Information</h3>
<p>This plugin is absolutely free to use. I made it for a specific personal purpose and decided to share with everyone else. I will try and update this for the future but can’t guarantee.</p>
