Advanced Features – Widget Control

Advanced Features Addon allows you to control own widgets in two ways:

• You can add any WP BASE shortcode in a widget, for example to accept booking throughout your website
• You can control widgets to be displayed page by page, post by post. A particular widget can be displayed on every post/page, on particular posts/pages, or on every post/page except selected ones.

To use WP BASE shortcodes in widgets:

• In WordPress admin side, visit Appearance → Widgets page
• Find WP BASE Shortcode and drag, move and drop it to the desired widget area
• Click Edit Content button. Text editor will open as popup
• Include WP BASE shortcode(s) and other formatted text in the same manner as in post editor
• Click Save and Close. WpB Shortcode readonly area should be updated.

Every WP BASE widget can be controlled to be displayed on every post/page or selected post/pages. Proceed as follows:

• To display on every page, you don’t need to do anything special; this is the default
• To display on every page, except for particular ones:
  • Visit posts/pages to exclude. Find meta box WP BASE Remove Widgets
  • Select widgets to be excluded in the pull down menu. To distinguish between instances of the same shortcode, you can get help of widget ID displayed in square brackets, e.g. [18]
  • Repeat above step for mobile devices
  • Save the post
• To display only for particular pages:
  • Click Add Page by Page check box of the widget in Appearance → Widgets page
  • Visit post/page to exclude. Find meta box WP BASE Add Widgets
  • Select widget(s) to be excluded. To distinguish between instances of the same shortcode, you can get help of widget ID displayed in square brackets, e.g. [18]. This ID is the same as in Appearance → Widgets page
  • Repeat above step for mobile devices
  • Save the post
