Widgets on dashboard

Pieter Bos

<p>On websites we develop for clients we always add this widget to their WordPress Dashboard to keep them informed on general updates regarding their websites. We thought it would be a handy tool for other developers, so we turned the widget into a plugin.</p>
<p>The default settings are:</p>
<ul>
<li>the standard title of the widget box is “Recent Updates”</li>
<li>as we needed a default feed URL we use the feed of WP TIPS, one of our own websites</li>
<li>the default number of RSS items is 3</li>
<li>do not open link in new tab (since 2014.07.27)</li>
<li>yellow background color of the widget (<code>#FFFF99</code>)</li>
</ul>
<p>We have decided to only support this plugin through <a href="https://github.com/senlin/so-dashboard-feed-widget/issues" rel="nofollow ugc">Github</a>. Therefore, if you have any questions, need help and/or want to make a feature request, please open an issue over at Github. You can also browse through open and closed issues to find what you are looking for and perhaps even help others.</p>
