AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Links With Icons Widget is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Widget category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 7 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How Links With Icons Widget works
Show full descriptionShow less
Links With Icons Widget adds a new custom widget which displays links with icons alongside. The links are dynamically added to each widget in the widget admin. This plugin does not use the links manager and does not create any custom post type to store the links. All data is self contained in each widget as widget option data. Images are added and managed using the media library and uploader.
Usage:
In the WordPress admin, go to Appearance…Widgets
Drag the “Links With Icons” widget to a sidebar
Select the number of links the widget will display and save the widget.
The widget will reload with the proper number of fields for the number of links needed.
Fill out the data (URL, Title and Image) and save the widget.
Viola! The widget now appears with your pretty icons.
Important Notes:
The widget doesn’t care about icon / image size. You should probably keep it consistent (and small) so it will be pretty.
If you reduce the number of links in a widget after it has been populated with data, the excess links data will be deleted forever.
The default CSS class for the container UL is links-with-icons-widget
Each link li has a class of link-with-icon
You can style and override the defaults in your own custom css, like:
.links-with-icons { /* custom styles / }
.link-with-icon a { / custom styles / }
.link-with-icon img { / custom styles */ }
etc…
