# Monthly/Weekly Widgets???

 * I would like to have a widget that displays a short summary of a post I’d do 
   for “artist of the month” for that month and then have it update when I published
   the next “artist of the month” post. Same with “album of the week” and have it
   update every week. Is there anything out there I could use for this? Thanks!

 * Well, you could…
 * Assign a specific Category to the Artist of the Month posts. Maybe AOM or something,
   whatever you want.
 * Use a plugin like [Category Posts](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/category-posts/)
   to display the most recent post from said category in a sidebar widget. (This
   plugin lets you specify the number of posts to show, so you could set this to
   1.) I’m sure other plugins are available to do the same thing.
 * Do the same for your other “of the Month” posts, etc.
 * Further, if you don’t want the post to appear on your main page, you can exclude
   it from showing with another plugin like [Advanced Category Excluder.](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-category-excluder/)
 * I’d recommend some surfing of the plugin repository and the WordPress help pages
   and codex. Spend a few hours just digging through these and you’ll have a good
   grasp on how to do things like this.
