Description

A tiny but high in demand widget to post sticky or “featured” posts into any widget area. We would appriciate any assistance you would like to provide with coding of enhancments to this plugin.
Using Documentation from core trac default widgets as a guideline for development:
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-includes/default-widgets.php

Features include:

  • Now COMPLETELY compatable with the premium “ClassiPress” theme which can be purchased at ClassiPress
  • sidebar widget added to your “Widgets” appearance settings that shows only sticky posts.
  • option to set the title when displayed on the home page.
  • makes use of new thumbnails and “featured images” for wordpress 2.9.2 and wordpress 3.0
  • option to turn on and off the thumbnails
  • option to set the number of posts listed (upgraded and not dependent on wordpress query options bug)
  • option to show “Category Related Sticky Posts” when sidebar displays on category page
  • detect if no featured ads are in category/subcategories and post any featured posts/pages.

Features Coming in version 2 Next Version Updates:

  • option to choose a custom post type to display sticky ads for (instead of only compliant with ClassiPress).
  • option to set the width and height of thumbnail inline css for non-classipress themes.
  • option to disable display of the title, or always show a force title option text regardless of website page type.
  • option to specify “only included” categoires or to “exclude only” certain categories.
  • option to “only feature listed post / page ID’s” in the widget
  • option to turn off the “random” order listing and choose from a dropdown of order types.
  • option to limit the title to X number of characters
  • option to display exceprt up to X number of characters or default to the wordpress excerpt words and length configured.
  • option to enable a jQuery based veritcle sidebar carousel (exact model to be determined).
