Using WP-dTree without widgets

    I was using the previous version but, since I work with multiple languages, using widgets in the sidebar was more dificult, so I had the following code

    if (function_exists(‘wp_dtree_get_categories’)){
    wp_dtree_get_categories();
    else…

    With the new version, the plugin is no longer called. Can I use it without having to use widgets?

    Yeah – sorry for the inconvenience; I changed all functions names to establish a somewhat more thought through interface for the plugin. WP-dTree 4.0 exposes the following new template tag functions:

    wpdt_list_archives();
    wpdt_list_categories();
    wpdt_list_pages();
    wpdt_list_links();
    wpdt_list_bookmarks(); //alias for wpdt_list_links

    They function a lot like WordPress own wp_list_* functions:

    • They take an (optional) query-string or associative array with arguments
    • They print by default, but if passed ‘echo=0’ they return the string of markup
    • Most of them use the WordPress namesake for generating noscript-content

    More info in the docs.

    In summary: the function names changed but everything became infinitely much more useful: you can have multiple trees and individually configure them directly through those getters. Again, apologizes for breaking backwards compatibility.
