Stallion Responsive Silo SEO Widgets

Stallion Responsive Silo SEO Widgets

When the Stallion Responsive Display Widgets Option is ON, most widgets have a new set of options (under “Appearance” > “Widgets”).

The screenshot shows some of the display widgets options (the options are extensive). I’ve used the WordPress Default Archives widget (adds the Monthly Dated Archives links sitewide normally) and set the widget to:

Show/Hide Widget : Show on Checked
Show/Hide Widget on Paged Categories : Show/Hide on Page 1 Only – single Posts

The above two options work together, the first option determines if the next option is Show or Hide (it’s set to Show).

The second option sets which parts of categories and single Posts (your WordPress Posts) this widget is shown or hidden on. It’s set to Show on Page 1 (of Categories) but not (that’s the – minus sign) show on of single Posts.

Together the options say load this widget on the first page of categories, don’t load on single Posts at all.

The form box below has another set of options (a lot of options), can set other locations to show/hide the widget.

Since we have the earlier option set:
Show/Hide Widget : Show on Checked

These two options are set to Show Widget:
Static Front Page
Home Page Archives NOT Paged (Page 1 Only)

Together they mean show on the static front page and show on the first page of home page archives: basically no matter what your homepage settings the home page loads the widget.

All together the Monthly Archive widget would load on the home page (first page only), on category archives (first page only) and that’s it. It won’t load on any paged archives (pages 2,3,4 etc…), won’t load on WordPress Posts or Static Pages (other than if the front page is a Page). It won’t even load on the Dated Archives :-)

The above isn’t how I’d set it in a real world example, would probably go with

Show/Hide Widget : Show on Checked
Show/Hide Widget on Paged Categories : Show/Hide on Categories Single Posts ONLY

This option says show on single Posts of the categories selected in the box below, if you don’t select any categories, the widget isn’t loaded on any categories or single posts.

In the form box with a lot of options tick

Static Front Page
Home Page Archives NOT Paged (Page 1 Only)
Archives NOT Paged (Page 1 Only)

Load on home page/front page and archives first page only, won’t load on Single Posts or Static Pages.
