WPP Widget
-
Hi there, on my blog, I am currently using the WPP widget. Now I’m told that you are going to deprecate it and to use the block widget instead. But I do not find it among my widgets. If I try to use a block widget, it asks for HTML code! So I tried a text widget with shortcode. But I’ve no idea how to reproduce the beautiful widgets I currently have. Please help!

There are a few issues there, some styling related due to your theme interfering and some WordPress related. Let’s fix the latter first:
#1 Replace the Text widget you’re using with a Custom HTML widget.
#2 Set Custom HTML widget’s title to “Meistgelesen”.
#3 Paste your [wpp] shortcode into the Custom HTML widget.
#4 Add this line of code to your site, either via your theme’s functions.php or by using a plugin such as Code Snippets for example:
add_filter( 'widget_text', 'do_shortcode');It’ll allow the Custom HTML widget to parse shortcodes.
Once you have done all that please let me know and we’ll look into the styling part afterwards.
Is the code in php or HTML ?
That’s PHP code.
Sorry to say that it still does not work – I’m giving up
