This Dynamic Widget Content plugin is lightweight and much easier to use then the plugin it replaced. Highly flexible, maintained and recommended! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/82411b400b54106f45a4483484c1a08b34eb11612ff84390eee4a96990e92b16? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-12085/)󠁿 [pnt](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pnt/) 24, Setiembre de 2020 Very useful ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0572f9cecd29b88c132f5f128928c31fdf46b0e8105a5eb7b8362c905e29baea? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Must have!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/must-have-422/)󠁿 [argosmedia](https://profiles.wordpress.org/argosmedia/) 5, Febreru de 2019 1 reply This is a great little plugin! By default WP is rather rigid and treats post/page content and widget content as unrelated content blocks, offering no way of simply adding content to a widget area from within the post/page editor page itself, and only relevant to that particular post/page. As a workaround I usually create some content blocks in Advanced Custom Fields, take their shortcodes and put those in text widgets, adding show conditions using widget logic. Rather cumbersome, but it works. Your plugin relieves me of all that and just offers exactly what I need: a simple way for me and my clients to add a content block into a widget area. Super!! The only requests I have is being able to use more than just 3 blocks, and to be able to add a title to the widgets (only for backend ease of use, not to be shown on the frontend). ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fa8b088217a57182228a0b65a14060146c634786752fced8f415e2579cce2e09? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin to simplify content updates](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-to-simplify-content-updates/)󠁿 [dilusionz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/dilusionz/) 6, Payares de 2016 1 reply Does what it says, super useful plugin! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/de152ddf284c931d9c8993de47e107326466a7b4bb7b7a4162eba3833959e591? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-8596/)󠁿 [divachrismai](https://profiles.wordpress.org/divachrismai/) 3, Setiembre de 2016 1 reply Love this plugin 🙂 Only downside is that you cannot use it in more than one “place”.
