Can I migrate data between Theme Editor and WP Editor Widget?

AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.

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 English Swedish German Danish More translations
