Widget Manager 1.0.2 – WordPress widgets management system
Description
Widget Manager is a WordPress plugin that lets you control where and when specific widgets appear on your site. Instead of showing the same sidebar or widget layout to everyone, it applies conditional display rules based on page or post, time and date, and defined user groups. This helps solve the common problem of irrelevant widgets competing for attention, which can reduce engagement and clarity.
With a flexible rules approach and an intuitive setup, Widget Manager supports targeted, personalized UX without changing your theme’s layout structure. You can assign widgets to the right content and schedule their visibility to match your audience and goals, improving how your site feels across different visits.
