The Wikipedia Widget shows a Wikipedia search-formular and its search results for the current post or page on your sidebar. On other sites (like category or front-page) it can defined any default search-keywords or other input-field.

The search results were Ajax-based fetched from the Wikipedia-API.

Main Features:

  • Define a default search string or get the current post title
  • Show or hide the search form or define an alternative search form within the page
  • Use cache for the search results for better speed
  • Results are clear formatted, with links and pictures
