Widget Plugin for WordPress
Jul 17th, 2007 by admin
We have written a “widget” plug-in for WordPress. It’s available now, and it’s open-source. Please download it directly from the WordPress Widget Library. You can see an example right in the sidebar on this page, and there’s a static screenshot right here –>.
Installation
- Download the plugin.
- Unzip the file into the WordPress directory: /wp-content/plugins/ - The plugin should reside in its own directory.
- Activate the “TrialPay Widget” plugin from the Word Press plugin page.
- Go to the WordPress “Presentation page”, then open the “Widgets” page.
- Drag/Drop the TrialPay Widget from the widget palette onto the sidebar dock.
- Double-click the TrialPay Widget to configure. You can leave the defaults if you’re just looking to see what it does, but come back later to input YOUR TrialPay store.
- SAVE, and now your widget should be “live” on your site.
Configuration (Widgets page of WordPress Dashboard)
You have full control over the following aspects:
- TrialPay Store URI (the URL that points to your TrialPay store)
- Graphic URI (Use any graphic you want, or keep using ours)
- Title (Optional) - short text on top
- Footer Text (Optional) - Text below the graphic - MAY contain HTML, if you’re careful.
Configuration is done in the WordPress dashboard. Go to Presentation, then Widgets. You’ll see the “TrialPay Widget” in your palette of widgets. Drag/drop to the sidebar, along with your other widgets. Double-click on it, to open the configuration screen. To enable you to do a quick test, all settings are populated with default values. Please change when your TrialPay store is ready for traffic.

Enjoy! Hopefully, your affiliation with TrialPay will bring in some extra cash, and your users will find useful stuff that they need anyway.
