    I'm using Atahualpa theme.
    * unzipped breukies_calendar.php to my wp-content/plugins folder-- it's there.
    * but when I open the Plugin Management screen in Dashboard, it doesn't show on the list.
    How do I activate to load a widget that doesn't show up?

    1. Unzip to wp-content/plugins/widgets.
    2. Go to WP admin -> plugins and activate Breukie’s Calendar Widget.
    3. Go to WP admin -> presentation -> sidebar widgets, to add the widget to your sidebar(s).
    4. Select how many Breukie’s Calendar Widgets you want to show and/or setup the parameters of the widget.
    5. If you are updating from an earlier version, deactivate, delete old version, upload new version and activate it.

    did you create a /widgets folder in the /plugins folder? Per #1 above?
    and upload it there?

    thanks for re-directing me; I couldn't find my original.
    and
    thanks for /widgets folder. I didn't know I needed that.
    ciao!

    Samboll, hi.
    1. Unzip to wp-content/plugins/widgets.
    2. Go to WP admin -> plugins and activate Breukie’s Calendar Widget.
    3. Go to WP admin -> presentation -> sidebar widgets, to add the widget to your sidebar(s).
    Did #1 - the whole folder appears in /widgets
    #2 Bueukie's Calendar doesn't show in Plugins Management... so can't activate.

    Sorry, but same problem as before... suggestions?
