Widget Visibility Control lets you decide exactly where each widget appears on your site. Show widgets only on specific pages, hide them for logged-out users, display different content for different categories – all without writing a single line of code.
Looking for Widget Visibility and Scheduling?
This plugin gives you control over where your widgets appear:
- Page targeting – Show widgets on the front page, blog page, specific pages, or 404 error page
- Content targeting – Display widgets only on certain categories, tags, or custom taxonomies
- User targeting – Show different widgets to logged-in users vs. visitors
- Role-based display – Target specific user roles (administrators, editors, subscribers, etc.)
- Author pages – Control visibility on author archive pages
- Date archives – Target daily, monthly, or yearly archives
- Post type support – Works with custom post types and their archives
- Time scheduling – Schedule widgets to appear only during specific date and time ranges. Perfect for promotional banners, seasonal offers, holiday announcements, flash sales, event countdowns, and time-limited content
