RSS - PostsI recently posed a question to Subscribe2 users about using the plugin in a sidebar without using the Widget. Based on the comments posted it appears that there are a reasonable number of people who want sidebar functionality but not via a widget.
I asked and you answered so I will post a method for putting the plugin into the sidebar but let’s just set some ground rules so everyone is clear.
- I will only ever support sidebar implementation via the Widget
- Manual implementations that mess up your sites presentation or look are your problem to fix
- Manual implementations that mess up your database are your problem to fix
- Manual implementations that don’t work as expected, or at all, are your problem to fix
That having been said I really can’t foresee any problems with this but use this code entirely at your own risk!! If that above scares you – use the Widget!!
If you are brave enough edit your sidebar code in your theme. Where you want the Subscribe Form or feedback to appear you’ll need to enter 2 lines of php code.
$content = apply_filters('the_content', '<p><!--subscribe2--></p>');
echo $content;
Note: You may need to wrap these lines in php tags [opening (<?php) and closing (?>)] depending on how your theme is written.
That’s it! If you have any problems – read the above as comments are disabled on this post.
