About

SO WP started in 2006 as Senlin Online and at that time we were focused on website projects.

Over the years we gained more experience with WordPress and rolled into giving technical support next (re)building websites. Now all those activities are done through our sister company BHI Localization for Websites.

Something else that happened was that we started to develop plugins for WordPress and as we thought that they could be useful for others too, we released them on the official WordPress Plugins Directory.

The SO WP website has now become a library of all the WordPress plugins we have developed, both current releases and plugins that we have retired from WordPress, but that still exist on Github.

Dashboard Feed Widget

Dashboard Feed Widget

Released on: August 23, 2012

Stable version: WordPress Plugins Directory; Source/Fork: Github; Support: Github issues.

On websites I develop for clients I always add this widget to their WordPress Dashboard to keep them informed on general updates regarding their websites. I thought it would be a handy tool for other developers, so I turned the widget into a plugin.

The plugin comes with a settings page and the default settings are:

  • the standard title of the widget box is “Recent Updates”
  • as I needed a default feed URL I used the feed of WP TIPS, one of my own websites
  • the default number of RSS items is 3
  • the links do not open in a new tab
  • the background color of the widget is yellow (#FFFF99) to bring a bit more attention to it

The plugin comes localized for use on sites other than the English language and/or on bi/multilingual websites. In the languages folder you will find the .po and .mo files.
