 * Hi, I noticed that inside Jetpack is a plugin which allows us to hide/show widgets
   where we want. I also can see there the same option for authors. Now i can see
   that i can set one widget to be shown “if author” or hide “if author”.
 * What i want to know is there an option and how, like this.
 * Show widget as usually but if it’s a post of author let’s call him X, then show
   widget only with his code.
 * What i want to do is, if post isnt from author x show site ads, if post is from
   author X then show only his ads inside text widget.
 * Is this possible, and if yes, how ?
 * Thanks

 * You won’t be able to change the contents inside a widget thanks to the Widget
   Visibility module. You could, however, try the following:
    1. Create 2 Text Widgets: one with the ad code for everyone, and another with the
       ad code only for that author
    2. Change visibility rules for the 2 widgets:
 *  - For the first widget, choose “Hide if Author is x”
    - For the second widget, choose “Show is Author is x”
 * By doing so, you’ll display a different widget (and thus a different ad code)
   just for that author.
 * I hope this helps.

 * Yea it does, but there isnt option only for single post. There is option only
   for the page. Does page here means single post also ?
 * Because on this way i am not sure what would be shown on the homepage..

 * If you want to display or hide a widget on single post pages, you can use the
   following widget visibility rule:
