Overview

This plugin serves as a versatile alternative to traditional widgets, offering enhanced control and seamless migration of content for WordPress developers. While it operates independently, its functionality significantly improves when used in conjunction with the Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) plugin. The plugin allows users to create reusable content pieces, which can be placed within various content areas or nested within other buckets. By leveraging ACF, developers can craft customized sidebars and additional fields, facilitating the creation of fully modular websites. Designed with developers in mind, this tool aims to simplify content management, thereby enhancing the efficiency of client projects. Comprehensive documentation is available to assist users in maximizing the plugin’s potential.

User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate the plugin for its versatility and ease of use, making it an excellent default option for reusing the same content across different parts of a website. However, some users have encountered technical issues during activation, specifically a fatal error related to an undefined function causing activation failures. This indicates the plugin may have compatibility or coding flaws that need resolution.

This is a great default plugin for most any site especially when you need to “reuse” the same content in various places on your site.

Hi all. This looks like it has promise but when I try to activate it, I get this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function register_field() in /path_to_my_blog/blog/wp-content/plugins/buckets/buckets.php on line 76 There is no function in that file with that name. Does anyone have any ideas please? Thanks in advance. Neil.
