Upgrade of AllConsuming Widget

Posted in Programming at 10:22 pm by Tristan

I’m new to WordPress, and I happened upon Ali Hassan’s Wordpress Widget for AllConsuming.net. Its a great little widget, but I found that you had to modify the source to show completed items, and there wasn’t a good way to show both completed and incomplete items. So, I decided to add ‘Completed’ as an option in the widget. You can download the plugin here. For those that haven’t used it before, here is how to install it:

(1) Dowload and install the sidebar widgets plugin from Automattic. *

(2) Download and install Ali’s AllConsuming widget.*

* To install these widgets, just upload the contents of each zip to your /plugins/ folder

(3) Activate both plugins

(4) You can configure the plugins under the new ‘Sidebar’ tab under ‘Presentation’

To upgrade, simply copy the php file in the zip over your existing one. The new option will appear.

That’s it! Let me know if you have any problems, and I’ll do my best to help if I have time.
