   Is there a way of using the Widget Logic plugin to show a widget only for admin level users...

   you could use current_user_can('capability')

   i think capability can be an old fashioned admin level type integer or the more modern capabilities. have a look at

   I don't see how...

   The roles and capabilities seems to relate more to the admin panel and editing, not viewing pages..

   It must be possible somehow....

   nonetheless, the current_user_can function should work when displaying pages and posts. current_user means the logged in ID.

   i have used it to show extra post information viewable only by logged in site editors.

   try it. make an admin and non-admin user, and just try adding some widget logic that uses that function.

   then just added current_user_can('level_10') and it works.....

   Thanks for your help!
