Cómo añadir una imagen en WordPress widget de barra lateral

   Hi,

   I just submitted a question about my image only showing up on the home page and not other pages on the site. I resolved my issue and wanted to share the solution in case it helps someone else. I was trying to use the Custom HTML widget to SHOW a couple of images to my Content Sidebar and when I specifically configured the addition of the pages I wanted to show, (leaving “Match all” UNchecked), the images only showed up on the Home page.

   The solution was to reverse it and tell the widget to HIDE if the page was 404 (or whatever you want). Now the images show up on the sidebar of all my pages.

   Thank you,
   Holly

   Hi,

   I got the custom HTML widget working on the home page but the images are not showing up on the other static pages. I configured the settings to “Show if” my desired pages are selected but the image only shows up on the home page. I’ve tried deleting and re-adding the widget and removing and re-adding pages. Any ideas?

   Thank you!
   Holly

     Depending on your theme, the widget area you are placing it at may only display on your home page. You would want to check with the theme’s support for where those widgets should show

   Hi, I am trying to add the picture and have it show up in the upper left corner of the post. When I add it and preview everything is there but when I publish it is not there. Any ideas?

     You may want to try clearing your caching to be sure it is not caused by that: https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-clear-your-cache-in-wordpress/
     As well if you check with your theme’s support there may be a theme specific setting that needs to be changed

   I have added an image to my footer and in Chrome on a desktop it appears and then immediately disappears. I have reduced the size, I have tried adding it as an image in html but nothing solves the problem. On chrome on my mobile it is fine. I don’t have adblock on my desktop. The problem also occurs with Firefox but Microsoft Edge all works fine. Any ideas?

    Thanks for writing about this in detail. I want to put my ads on the widget section. This method will perfectly suit my requirement. But I just have one problem. How to add different image for different blog posts. Is there a way to do that?

    I believe the video said “Alt tag”. That wouldn’t be the correct terminology – it would be the Alt Attribute of the tag.

    Love this tutorial, however I am skeptical to download the image widget because it says that it is untested with my version of Wordpress. Will there be updates coming soon or how does it get tested with my version of Wordpress?

      Hi Victoria,

      Please take a look at our article on should you install plugins not tested with your WordPress version.

      See our guide on how to add round gravatar images in WordPress. The article talks about gravatar but you can use the CSS with any image.

    Hi,

    Any idea why bullet points wouldn’t show up in the sidebar widgets despite having taken off “list-style-type: none” from the css file and replaced it with the following code and it still doesn’t work:

    .widget ul li { list-style: circle }

    Hi,
    I have a couple of questions. First, I am having trouble installing the Widget Image plugin for some reason. I’ve installed plugins before but I can’t seem to do this one. Granted, I’m a beginner and I added them almost a year ago so maybe I’ve forgotten something. Can you give me any tips?

    Also, believe it or not, I got a picture on my widget using the html coding! (Surprised I could code, but you made it very easy and understandable) The only problem I have is that it is full size and I’m hoping to have thumbnails. Is there code for that? If so, I don’t need to install the plugin.
    Thanks!

      You can create a smaller image on your computer using any image editing tool and then upload that image.

    I had a read at this to try and update the image I have on a widget on my blog.

    Are you guys on the same planet as the rest of us? Have a read at what you wrote – you’d have to be a Philadelphia lawyer crossed with Steve Jobs to understand the instructions.

    Anyway – back to trying to change the image, I’m sure the trick is in there somewhere.

    Either I have overlooked many things you have talked about or the site has changed. I do see an option for an image widget which you state does not exist. I do not see any media or gallery to which I can upload an image file.

    So, where do I upload the file so I can get a URL to put in the necessary place on the form to set up the image widget?

    Hi there. I know how to get the images in the sidebar, but they take up too much space so I am trying to do a click-through gallery here. I get the little click-through box, but no images show. I was also able to do an auto-slideshow, but it is very distracting so I don’t want that. I just want the photo gallery that you click through to the next image, but I can’t find anything on how to fix this here.

    Hi,

    I am having an issue adding image widgets. When I try adding a new one (after having deleted one too) the changes don’t save, the page stops loading, and when I try to access the site (admin and normal) it says can’t connect to server – so basically my site is down. I restarted my computer and installed updates and this solved it the first time, but when I tried adding the widget again the same thing happened, except restarting doesn’t seem to help anymore!

    Please help! I would really appreciate it!

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi, Thanks for that, it works a treat. I have a question; I don’t want the same image to appear on every page so how to I restrict it to a particular page so that I can use a different image on subsequent pages.

    Regards,

    Another nice way is using the text widget but with the TinyMCE Editor (like it’s used for posts). There’s a plugin for that (actually there are more then one): https://wordpress.org/plugins/black-studio-tinymce-widget/
