   I've installed the plugin, I've tried to use it, but I get an error message (can still use it though)... but I can't include any media at all. I get redirected to a white page!

   Same here. looks like it should be opening via a lightbox or modal window of some sort, instead it's a full request to a new page.

   i tried it in wordpress 2.7.1

   it worked for me after making some changes to the wysiwyg-text-widget.php

   // orig function at line ~ 115
   function widget_wys_text_init()
   {
   wp_enqueue_script('editor');
   wp_enqueue_script('editor_functions');
   wp_enqueue_script('quicktags');
   }

   edited//
   function widget_wys_text_init()
   {
   wp_admin_css( 'thickbox' );
   add_thickbox();
   wp_enqueue_script('editor');
   wp_enqueue_script('editor_functions');
   wp_enqueue_script('quicktags');
   wp_enqueue_script('media-upload');
   }

   I hope it will work for you guys also

   It worked for me.
   Nice tip !
   Did you send this to the plugin author ?

   boy, I tried this with no luck - I'm on FF3/Mac - maybe that's the problem?

   @abelcreative: as it says on the author's plugin page

   Known issues

   • The plugin doesn’t work (on the admin end) in Google Chrome
   • The widget is a bit odd in Firefox. There’s sometimes an intermediate page that shows when you edit a widget, and you might have to click the “Visual” link to see the editor buttons. I’d like to fix these things but don’t have time at the moment (new baby = no time!).

   Btw, I tried it in FF3, Safari and IE7 (all winvista) but it doesn't work for me. Also tried the edit mentioned in a few posts back, but that didn't solve it either..
   A shame, because this is exactly what my client wants..

   @technopreneur - I used your fix today, and the plugin is now working great in FF 3 on Mac.

    This plugin doesnt work correcty for me - it only adds a widget to the first sidebar i am fairly new at building themes and i note that int widget php it looks for register_sidebar_widget my functions.php uses register_sidebar - not sure what the difference is between the two-
