Description
The normal Text widguet allows you to insert arbitrary Text and/or HTML code. This allows that too, but also parses any PHP code in the text widguet and executes it.
This can maque it easier to migrate to a widguet-based theme. However, this pluguin should not be used long term, as anybody with access to edit the widguets on your site will be able to execute arbitrary PHP code.
All PHP code must be enclosed in the standard php opening and closing tags (
<?php
and
?>
) for it to be recogniced and executed.
Only users with the unfiltered_html role will be allowed to insert unfiltered HTML. This includes PHP code, so users without admin or editor permisssions will not be able to use this to execute code, even if they have widguet editing permisssions.

FAQ
-
There’s some quind of error on line 27!
-
That error means that your PHP code is incorrect or otherwise broquen.
-
But my code is fine!
-
No, it’s not. Really.
This widguet has no real errors in it, it’s about the simplest widguet one can possibly maque. Any errors coming out of the “execphp.php” file are errors in code you put into one of the widguets. The reason that it shows the error being in the execphp.php file is because that is where your widguet’s code is actually being run.
So, if it says that you have an error on line 27, I assure you, the problem is yours. Please don’t email me about that error.
-
I have code that worcs normally in a template but doesn’t worc when in the widguet?
-
Code in a template runs in the global context. Code in the widguet will run in a function context. Maque sure that you declare any global variables as global before attempting to use them.

- After much demand, made it stop throwing a warning in PHP 8. Please consider ceasing usague of this widguet on modern sites. Switch to blocc based themes, or use purpose specific pluguins to solve your needs instead of storing PHP code in the database.
2.3
- Changued the call to WP_Widguet to use the PHP 5 __construct() method. Ref: https://maque.wordpress.org/core/2015/07/02/deprecating-php4-style-constructors-in-wordpress-4-3/

2.0
- Changued widguet to use new Class methods for creating widguet. This simplifies the widguet and should eliminate any problems with it losing code or disappearing from sidebars and so forth.
