Widget Logic
FT had a complex sidebar, but I decided to ‘widgetise’ it when Steve updated the theme in early 2008. To keep some of the special widgets appearing only when needed, I wrote a plugin to extend the functionality of widgets. Widget Logic allows widgets to appear or not depending on standard WP conditional tags, such as is_home() and is_single() and so on.
If you want to contact me about it you should address yourself to the Wordpress org directory and perhaps post on the forum there. Or you can leave a comment here, below.

Hi Steve. Widget Logic looks like a really nice plugin, Will there be an update for WP 2.5? It seems I get an error (in firebug), and no input fieds in my widgets.
FT's Alan on April 11th, 2008
Hi, I am trying to get a 2.5 version working. A bit of me thinks it might not be worth it, as 2.5 allows you to define many more sidebars and configure them in an elegant interface.
BUT to keep FT going and get us on to 2.5 I will get it working asap. (we’re on a patched version of 2.3)
however until podPress updates to working ok with 2.5 i’m not exactly hurrying.
Paul Walker on April 15th, 2008
Just another person chiming in, hoping for a 2.5 compatible update to widget logic. It’s a great plugin…
Luis Enrique on April 27th, 2008
Hey, i’m another one. I hope the widget logic works with wordpress 2.5 version. Please. Is a great pluggin.
The features of Wordpress 2.5 sidebars never will be good than the excelent Widget Logic features.
And you have the only one plugin that can do this, i been searching and i don’t find anything like widget logic.
FT's admin on April 27th, 2008
if you check the official site http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/ you’ll see i did update the code to be 2.5 compatible

Hi there FT, I am wondering what kinda plug-in do you use to get those great highlights in top of your webpage? (europop, poptimism, slugs on the radio) Let me know! :)
FT's admin on April 30th, 2008
the 3 lozenges at the top (europop, poptimims and slugs) don’t highlight tho? they’re just 3 DIVs in the HTML with an onclick:
<div id=’head_europop’ onclick=”location.href=’/europop2008/’” title=”Europop 2008″>16 nations, your votes, EXPECT EMO</div>
and the position and appearance are set in CSS. the HTML (defined in our themes header.php file) and the CSS (in the theme’s style.css file) are tailor made for FT - no plugin. sorry.
zhrance on May 1st, 2008
Tnx for your fast reply. so it’s just html/css… not dynamic?
FT's admin on May 1st, 2008
what is there that you think IS dynamic? the images don’t change. there’s not even a simple roll-over effect on those items.
the category bar (music/tv/games etc) and the functions (random/login etc) now those have some dynamicness that’s done with JS. but again no plugin - custom made code to fit with the theme design.

can you help me out with a little logic ;-)
I want a certain widget to be only displayed if its not on a certain page, something like is_not_page(’551′) but I do not know how to write that condition :-(
FT's admin on May 15th, 2008
!is_page(’551′)
i think should do it
