Using widgets, how can I insert custom sidebar code? (2 posts)

    I've got widgets enabled on my site. Some plugins which are designed for sidebars dont have widgets, but are just normal plugins and you have to insert some code into the sidebar template to show them.

    My question is, how do I insert this code if I'm using widgets, as the sidebar template isn't really used. Is it possible at all?

    if they require php code, download execphp ( http://ottodestruct.com/blog/2006/04/09/fun-with-widgets/) put it in your plugins and activate it. Then you're able to add "blank widgets" in which you can run php code. For text, or html additions to your sidebar, the widgets page has the option at the bottom to add multiple text widgets. These accept both text and html. i've used both.
