 * The plugin still works fine on the front-end (i.e. it does show/hide the widgets
   conditionally), but the admin UI (meta box) that it adds in the Widgets screen
   might need some tweaks to adopt the changes introduced in 3.8. For example, it
   has an odd background color and is now not collapsible.

 * Thanks for that. I just updated the plugin and it looks better now. However, 
   the meta box is still not collapsible like the Available Widgets and Inactive
   Widgets ones. Is that intended?

 * Yes, because it didn’t look nice if made it like that. But at the same time it
   became obvious thet it will be best to move those settings form widget to a separate
   settings page.

 * So… you are going to move those settings from the widgets screen to a separate
   settings page in an upcoming update?

 * Exactly Hassan, in one of the future updates.
