## Maelezo

[Restrict Widgets](http://www.dfactory.eu/plugins/restrict-widgets/) is all in one
solution for widget management in WordPress. It lets you easily control the pages
that each widget will appear on and avoid creating multiple sidebars and duplicating
widgets. You can also set who can manage widgets, which sidebars and widgets will
be available to selected users, which widget options will be available and how it
will be displayed.

By default, Hide widget on selected is enabled with no options selected, so all 
current widgets will continue to display on all pages.

For more information, check out plugin page at [dFactory](http://www.dfactory.eu/)
or plugin [support forum](http://www.dfactory.eu/support/forum/restrict-widgets/).

#### Features include:

   custom post types, single posts, archives, special pages, for logged in or logged
   out users, current language, mobile device and so on
 * Select which user roles are restricted to manage widgets
 * Select which sidebars will be restricted to admins only
 * Select which widgets will be restricted to admins only
 * Select which widget options will be restricted to admins only
 * Choose to display or not widget options as groups
 * Option to modify the is_active_sidebar() function to use Restrict Widgets display
   settings

Does not work with bbPress Sidebar. This is why i hate WP. No standardization.

to logged-on users.
