What it does
Digital stores often have useful space in sidebars and footers that sits empty or holds generic content. This plugin fills those areas with widgets that pull from your Easy Digital Downloads catalog, so visitors see your products wherever they browse. It works for shops selling eBooks, software, music or other digital goods, and it fits into an existing setup without extra coding.
Each widget is configured through simple controls, letting you adjust how it looks and behaves without developer help. You can point shoppers toward best sellers, new arrivals or special offers, show a rotating carousel of featured items, or add call-to-action blocks. The widgets are responsive, so they display properly on phones and tablets as well as desktop screens.

Do I need coding skills to set up the widgets?
No. The widgets fit into an existing Easy Digital Downloads setup and come with user-friendly configuration options, so you can adjust their appearance and behavior without writing code.

Yes. All the widgets are responsive and mobile-friendly, so product displays, sliders and call-to-action blocks adapt to smaller screens as well as desktop layouts.
