wp plugin install https://github.com/robhuijben/wp-text-wiget-extended/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

WP Text Widget Extended adds a field to the default WordPress Text widget so you can assign extra CSS classes without editing theme files.

Features

  • Additional CSS class field on the Text widget
  • Optional toggle to hide the widget title on the frontend
  • Sanitizes and deduplicates the entered class list
  • Translation-ready via the languages/ directory

Installation

  1. Upload the wp-text-widget-extended folder to the wp-content/plugins/ directory of your WordPress site.
  2. Activate the plugin via Plugins → Installed Plugins in the WordPress dashboard.
  3. Edit or create a Text widget under Appearance → Widgets; the extra field appears at the bottom of the widget settings.

Translations

Bundled locales:

  • Dutch (nl_NL)
  • German (de_DE)
  • French (fr_FR)
  • Spanish (es_ES)

To add more translations, place your .po and .mo files in the languages/ directory using a tool such as Poedit.
