Cybokron Advanced Widget Visibility

Jetpack's Widget Visibility only supports "Include children" which covers direct children (1 level deep). It doesn't include grandchildren, great-grandchildren, or deeper nested pages. This plugin adds an "Include all descendants" option that includes ALL levels of nested pages — grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and beyond. Features:

• Show/Hide widgets based on conditions
• Page visibility with full descendant support
• Category visibility with hierarchy support
• Hierarchical custom taxonomy visibility with descendant support
• Post type conditions
• Special pages: Front page, Blog, Archive, Search, 404
• User role targeting (any selected role)
• User state: Logged in / Logged out
• Multiple conditions with AND/OR logic
• Jetpack-free — no dependencies
• 30 languages included
• Follows WordPress coding standards

Supported Languages (30): Turkish, English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Dutch, Polish, Russian, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Korean, Arabic, Hebrew, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Greek, Czech, Hungarian, Romanian, Ukrainian, Vietnamese, Thai, Indonesian, Hindi, Slovak
