How Do I Add a Link to a Widget in WordPress?
Adding a link to a widget in WordPress can be done in a few different ways. One way is to use the widget’s shortcode. For example, to add a link to the Contact Form Widget, you would use the following code:
[contact-form-7 404 "Not Found"]url=http://www.example.com/contact-form/
shortcode=contact-form
This would create a link that looks like this:
http://www.com/contact-form/
Another way to add a link to a widget is to use the widget’s widget file. For example, if you wanted to add a link to the Contact Form Widget in your theme’s functions.php file, you would use the following code:
function contact_form(){
wp_register_widget(‘contact-form’, ‘http://www.com/contact-form/’,
array(‘title’ => __(‘Contact Form’, ‘mytheme’),
‘description’ => __(‘Create contact forms with the Contact Form Widget’, ‘mytheme’),
‘type’ => ‘widget’,
‘args’ => array(
‘title’ => ‘Contact us’,
‘description’ => ‘Please provide your contact information so that we may contact you’,
‘classes’ => ‘contact-form-input’
)),
‘access_key’ => ‘c919f7f7e11e4eb7a’
);
}
add_action(‘wp_loaded’, ‘contact_form’);
