Overview
IMPORTANT: This plugin will NOT function after the Widgets screen overhaul that is part of WordPress 5.8 unless you use the Classic Widgets plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-widgets/). The plugin will continue to be supported/maintained for those using Classic Widgets, but there are no plans to make Conditional Widgets work once Widgets are Blocks.
This plugin adds a form to each widget on the Widgets panel which allows users to choose which pages and/or categories the widget is either displayed on or hidden from.
For each widget, you can choose criteria to either SHOW or HIDE the widget, based on a number of categories. The interface is quite intuitive, and requires no knowledge of php or conditional tags.

simple and working with wp 5.5

I have been looking for such a widget for some time, and found it today.
It is working with wp 5.5.
Thank you for the plugin.
Very useful

Very useful plugin, light, easy to use for customizing each category widget, or page too, it works very well.
Thanks -:)
Plugin abandoned?
by momo-fr·7 years ago
Hi, I see that this plugin is no longer followed by its developer for a long time, to delete?
Doesn’t work well with browser extensions
by tommyg73·8 years ago
If you have certain browser extensions (like Grammerly) it will not work.
Somehow the enable crashes or delays too long with them.

Does not work with WooCommerce and Support is bad
by worsin·9 years ago
Its currently not compatible with WooCommerce and a post that was made a month ago by someone regarding this was completely ignored. Seems the developer doesn’t care about compatibility.
