Widget: Constant-Content Widget

This continues on my series of small, one-off widgets to make your life ever-so-slightly easier.

This widget allows you to display your Constant-Content author’s widget in your WordPress sidebar. This one is significantly easier to implement than the eHow Widget. Simply find your Constant-Content referral link (under My Account) and select the user ID at the very end (?aref=123456). Enter this into the “User ID” box on the widget page, enter your width and click save. Your articles-for-sale widget will appear!

Known bugs: Sometimes, right after install, the widget control will not display (so you can’t edit your user ID). If this happens, click refresh and it should work.

Features anticipated for the future: ability to control colors and live preview of widget during editing.

Note: Some users with Linux hosts have reported trouble uploading/unpacking the archive through WordPress’ plug-ins menu. Manually upload the unpacked folder to avoid problems.

  1. Hi Rebecca,

    Wow, just gave the widget a try! It’s awesome!

    Thanks for making this up. Would you mind if I started to promote the widget on the constant-content.com site itself?

    Thanks,
    Jeff
