Prototype W

Widgets, Widgets, Widgets: Rethinking Widgets in WordPress

I spent some time today working on a plugin that redesigns the widgets in WordPress. It’s a prototype. I love to build quick prototypes, not design something on a static Photoshop canvas. This way, I get to play with the “thing” I’m building and tweak it in realtime. This method of “don’t just draw, build something real” is the primary reason I learned PHP as a designer.

Check out the code on GitHub, and note that this plugin currently requires that you modify a Core WordPress file to make a few functions “plugabble.”

    From a brief look: That restyling looks quite nice and much better than the current screen.
