Usage

Setting a visibility rule

  1. Open Appearance → Widgets
  2. Click the widget you want to control
  3. In the right sidebar, find the Widget Visibility panel
  4. Choose a rule from the Visibility rule dropdown:
    • Always show — widget is always visible (default)
    • Show only when… — widget is visible only when a condition or URL matches
    • Hide when… — widget is hidden when a condition or URL matches
  5. Add conditions and/or URLs to the respective fields
  6. Click Update to save

Conditions

Enter one condition per line. The widget rule triggers if any condition is true (OR logic).

is_product_category()
is_shop()
is_search()

Available conditions:

ConditionDescription
is_front_page()Front page
is_home()Blog index
is_singular()Any single post, page, or CPT
is_single()Single post
is_page()Static page
is_archive()Any archive
is_category()Category archive
is_tag()Tag archive
is_author()Author archive
is_date()Date archive
is_search()Search results
is_404()404 page
is_user_logged_in()Logged-in users
is_woocommerce()Any WooCommerce page
is_shop()WooCommerce shop page
is_product()Single product page
is_product_category()Product category archive
is_product_tag()Product tag archive
is_product_taxonomy()Any product taxonomy
is_cart()Cart page
is_checkout()Checkout page
is_account_page()My Account page

URLs

Enter one path per line. Wildcards (*) are supported. The widget rule triggers if any URL matches (OR logic).

/documentation/
/documentation/*
/shop/*

Use relative paths only — no domain needed. The path is matched against the current REQUEST_URI.

Combining conditions and URLs

Conditions and URLs work together with OR logic — the rule triggers if either a condition OR a URL matches. This means you can mix both fields freely:

Conditions:  is_shop()
URLs:        /documentation/*

The widget will be shown (or hidden) on the shop page AND on all documentation pages.

Known Limitations

  • Custom HTML blocks (core/html) are not currently supported. The Widget Visibility panel will appear, but settings will not be applied on the frontend. As a workaround, wrap your Custom HTML block inside a Group block and apply the visibility rule to the Group instead.
