The easiest way to do this is through a text widget. Just write what you want the widget to look like on a WordPress page, then cope and paste the code into a text widget. You can use this technique to get a list of anything you want.
Hello Thomas,
Thanks for the reply.
I want to add dynamically in sidebar. means it will fetch all updated list of authors and all list of Genres into sidebar.
And with text widget we can set static html code.
Can you please guide another solution for this.
We don’t have a widget that does that, but you could create one. That is an interesting idea though.
That information is available in the database. If you know PHP you could make a widget that dynamically lists Authors/Series/Genres.
Thanks Thomas for a great support. i will create a widget using custom query.
Great! Feel free to post your code to our GitHub and we might add it to the core plugin.

I am also requesting this feature.
We have added this feature to the most recent version of the plugin. Look for the “MyBookTable Taxonomy” Widget. Let us know what you think.
Any chance for a shortcode that shows authors/genres for pages?
Could you tell me a little more of what you want the shortcode to do?
So you could add [authors] or [genres] to a page and list authors and genres. Basically, the same functions as the taxonomy widget, but in shortcodes to add to the main MBT page. Thanks!
Got it. I’ll add it to the list. We should have a new version out next week. I’ll see what we can do.
