<p>A widget that can act as a duplicate of another widget (for synchronized use in another sidebar)</p>
<p>Define a widget once, use it in multiple sidebars.  This saves you from having to manually configure each copy of the widget and later having to worry about keeping them in sync should you ever need to make any changes.  Particularly useful for those who define logic in their themes to conditionally include different versions of a sidebar depending on what template is being shown. Depending on use, it is an alternative to plugins that introduce in-widget logic to determine when widgets should be visible (Widget Logic, Section Widget, Conditional Widgets, etc).</p>
<p>Quick overview of what this plugin does:</p>
<ul>
<li>Adds a widget called “Duplicate”. The widget’s only setting is a dropdown listing all active widgets.  The selected widget will be the widget duplicated by the duplicate widget.</li>
<li>A duplicate widget shows the same title and content as its source widget, even if those values later get changed in the source widget.</li>
<li>A widget can be duplicated any number of times and can appear multiple times within the same page. (Yes, even within the same sidebar, though why would you do that?)</li>
<li>A duplicate widget will abide by the configuration of the sidebar it is placed in, not the configuration of the sidebar containing the source widget.  So it uses ‘before_widget’, ‘after_widget’, ‘before_title’, ‘after_title’ values of its own sidebar.</li>
<li>Widgets that are duplicated will have “[D]” prepended to their name in the widget titlebar in the admin to denote they have duplicates.  Also, at the bottom of the widget’s configuration form (when the widget is expanded), a short blurb also explains that the widget has duplicate(s) and a count of how many duplicates it has.</li>
<li>If a widget is deactivated or deleted, if it has any duplicates, they get deleted as well.</li>
<li>The widget id and widget type of the source widget are included as HTML classes in the duplicate widget’s markup.</li>
</ul>

<h3>Filters</h3>
<p>The plugin exposes four actions for hooking.  Typically, customizations utilizing these hooks would be put into your active theme’s functions.php file, or used by another plugin.</p>
<h4>c2c_before_duplicate_widget (action)</h4>
<p>The ‘c2c_before_duplicate_widget’ hook allows you to output text, or perform some sort of action, just before the output of the duplicate widget.</p>
<p>Arguments:</p>
<ul>
<li>$instance (array) : The settings for the widget instance (namely: title and widget_to_duplicate)</li>
<li>$args (array) : The configuration for the widget and sidebar</li>
</ul>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>// Output an opening <div> before duplicate widget content
add_action( 'c2c_before_duplicate_widget', 'my_c2c_before_duplicate_widget', 10, 2 );
function my_c2c_before_duplicate_widget( $instance, $args ) {
    echo '<div class="a_duplicate_widget">;
}
</code></pre>
<h4>c2c_after_duplicate_widget (action)</h4>
<p>The ‘c2c_after_duplicate_widget’ hook allows you to output text, or perform some sort of action, just after the output of the duplicate widget.</p>
<p>Arguments:</p>
<ul>
<li>$instance (array) : The settings for the widget instance (namely: title and widget_to_duplicate)</li>
<li>$args (array) : The configuration for the widget and sidebar</li>
</ul>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>// Output an closing </div> after duplicate widget content
add_action( 'c2c_after_duplicate_widget', 'my_c2c_after_duplicate_widget', 10, 2 );
function my_c2c_after_duplicate_widget( $instance, $args ) {
    echo '</div>;
}
</code></pre>
<h4>c2c_before_duplicate_widget_form (action)</h4>
<p>The ‘c2c_before_duplicate_widget_form’ hook allows you to output text, or perform some sort of action, just before the output of the duplicate widget’s configuration form (in the WP admin).</p>
<p>Arguments:</p>
<ul>
<li>$instance (array) : The settings for the widget instance (namely: title and widget_to_duplicate)</li>
</ul>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>// Display a message just before the duplicate widget settings form
add_action( 'c2c_before_duplicate_widget_form', 'my_c2c_before_duplicate_widget_form' );
function my_c2c_before_duplicate_widget_form( $instance ) {
    echo '<p>Note: this is a note above the widget settings form.</p>';
}
</code></pre>
<h4>c2c_after_duplicate_widget_form (action)</h4>
<p>The ‘c2c_after_duplicate_widget_form’ hook allows you to output text, or perform some sort of action, just after the output of the duplicate widget’s configuration form (in the WP admin).</p>
<p>Arguments:</p>
<ul>
<li>$instance (array) : The settings for the widget instance (namely: title and widget_to_duplicate)</li>
</ul>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>// Display a message just after the duplicate widget settings form
add_action( 'c2c_after_duplicate_widget_form', 'my_c2c_after_duplicate_widget_form' );
function my_c2c_after_duplicate_widget_form( $instance ) {
    echo '<p>Note: this is a note below the widget settings form.</p>';
}
</code></pre>


Duplicate Widget

A widget that can act as a duplicate of another widget (for synchronized use in another sidebar)

<p>Prevent virtual directory listing services from listing the contents of directories, and/or show a page in place of a directory’s listing.</p>
<p>The Apache web server can be configured to automatically display the listings of the contents of a web site’s file directory if no index file (i.e. index.html or index.php) is present.  This can expose files and information to visitors.  Of course the web server could be configured to not do this (the recommended approach), but sometimes you don’t have permission (you’re on a shared host), the know-how, or you want to selectively disallow virtual directory listings.  That’s where this plugin can help.</p>
<p>If you want to test if your site has virtual directory listings enabled, try visiting http://www.YOURSITE.com/wp-includes (obviously, change the domain to match your own).  If you see a listing of PHP files then virtual directory listing is enabled for your site.</p>
<p>This plugin can prevent visitors from seeing the contents of certain (or all) directories on your site (assuming your web server generates virtual directory listings).  It also allows you to use a WordPress page as the index for a directory</p>
<p>By default, the following directories are protected:</p>
<ul>
<li>wp-includes/</li>
<li>wp-content/</li>
<li>wp-content/plugins/</li>
<li>wp-content/themes/</li>
</ul>
<p>It does NOT protect any other directory by default.  You can change this via the plugin’s admin settings page.</p>
<p>TIP: When this plugin is activated (and more specifically, ater the permalink structure is updated as per the instructions below), WordPress will generate the themed 404 – Not Found page.  If you were to create a Page with the same name as one of the directories being disabled (i.e. ‘wp-includes’ or ‘wp-content’) then that page will be displayed instead of the 404 error message.  If you want to display a page for the ‘plugins’ and ‘themes’ directory, you must create them as children pages of a ‘wp-content’ page.</p>
<p>NOTE: This plugin only works for the Apache web server.</p>
