    Hello there,

    There are many plugins that allow you to add conditions to any widgets you got on your website, atm I’m working with Conditional Widget plugin.

    The problem is that only Genesis Featured Widget Amplified or even the basic Genesis version of it wont allow any plugins like mentioned above to attach to itself and in this way to allow make conditions to where I want Genesis Featured Widget Amplified to appear.

    That could be a future request to make it possible, or maybe you know a fast way to make it possible?

    Hope I’m clear enough with explanation.

    Kind Regards
    Michal

    I have been working through this also. What I found is that it depends on whether the plugin/widget loads before or after the_loop. With GFWA, I was able to get it to work, but only by wrapping the condition statement in the php code:

    instead of in_cat(22) or !in_cat(22)

    use

    <?php in_cat(’22’); ?> or <?php !in_cat(’22’); ?>

    It seemed to work just fine for me (I actually used category spelled out…)

    What I am running into now is that using multiple instances, I.e. changing the entire sidebar, is giving me problems, even with this quick fix. Best of luck, but the Wigdet Logic plugin even states that it may not work if your theme loads in a particular order.

    I don’t know if this will help you or not, but I have been able to use GFWA and Dynamic Widgets plugin successfully on several sites.

    It’s been working great for making certain featured categories show up on the sidebars of only a select number of pages/categories.

    Thanks mate, will check this option out if needed.

    Still don’t get it why would Conditional Widget plugin not be friendly with Genesis Featured Widget though, and only with it 🙁
