Widgetized themes often include support for adding a featured page or post, but often there’s no easy way to feature a category from your blog.

With Featured Category Widget you can easily featured a blog category (or a category from a custom taxonomy, like products), add a custom image and optionally show the category description and a list of sub categories.

Features:

  • Add custom image and set display size.
  • Optionally show category description and/or subcategories.
  • Supports custom taxonomies.
  • Developer friendly hooks and filters throughout.
  • Translated into French, Spanish, German.
