Tabbed Sidebar Widgets Plugin

Pack multiple sidebar widgets into one convenient tabbed container.

This plugin adds a magic sidebar which you can fill with widgets and a widget that displays the magic sidebar’s contents as tabs. Sounds more complicated than it really is!

Installation

  1. Download the plugin and unzip.
  2. Put the tabbed-sidebar-widgets folder in your wp-content/plugins directory.
  3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
  4. Fill the Magic Sidebar with some widgets and drag the Tabbed Sidebar Widgets widget to your sidebar.

FAQ

What about styling?

There’s really only a minimum of styling included “out-of-the-box”. You can style the tabs by adding your own stylesheet and images in your theme directory. Like so:

  1. Create a directory called “tabbed-sidebar-widgets” in your theme’s root folder. (eg: /wp-content/themes/mytheme/tabbed-sidebar-widgets)
  2. Add a css file named “widget.css” to the above directory and style away!

There’s no graphic style editor at this moment.
