WP Editor Widget

Note: This plugin still works but it doesn't really contain any major features that the native Text widget is missing. The plugin is no longer in active developement. This plugin adds a rich text widget where the content is edited using the standard WordPress visual editor which most users already are familiar with. It uses the WP core function wp_editor() without adding a custom post type post for each widget making the widget quicker and simpler to edit. Feel free to help with developement or issue reporting on Github! Languages
