## Descrición

Brings back the classic WordPress text widget without TinyMCE. This is based on 
the code from WordPress Ver. 4.7.5

Functionality is exactly the same as the pre-version 4.8 text widget. Additional
default functionality includes shortcode execution and custom class filter.

Note: This widget uses PHP namespaces to prevent conflicts with other widgets of
a similar nature. PHP namespaces are only supported in PHP Version 5.3.0 and higher.
If your site uses a PHP version earlier than 5.3.0, do not install this widget unless
your PHP version is upgraded first.

## Instalación

 1. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

## Preguntas frecuentes

  Do the original text widget filters work with the Classic Text Widget?

Yes and no. Filters that apply to the widget title remain the same to maintain compatibility
across WordPress. Filters that apply to to the widget’s content now use add_filter(‘
classic_widget_text’, ‘my_function’)

  Does the plugin support shortcodes?

Yes, out of the box. To disable shortcode support, add remove_filter( ‘classic_widget_text’,‘
do_shortcode’ ) to your theme’s function file.

  Does the plugin directly execute PHP?

No, it does not directly support executing PHP. The widget does support shortcodes
however. If you want to execute PHP in this widget, write your code as a shortcode
and it will run.

  I have a lot of text widgets on my site, is there a way to bulk transfer the content
from the new WordPress text widget and place it into the Classic Text Widget?

Yes, but you have to be very careful and do it with SQL. See this post for details
about how to [bulk replace](https://christinacreativedesign.com/how-to-bulk-replace-the-4-8-wordpress-text-widget-with-the-classic-text-widget/).

Cheers for the plugin. As much as I like visual editor functionality brought to 
widgets in WP 4.8, we DO need that classic functionality as well! Hope they will
fix it one way or another in some WP 4.8.1 or something… So again, big thanks for
the plugin!
