I would like to change the widget-title from “Blogroll” to simply “Links”, mainl because my users are puzzled by the term “Blogroll” whereas they intuitively understand “Links”. Is there any way of changing the widget-title?

Thanks.

@donal.leader: Are you using the older version of WordPress as the Blogroll widgets has been removed from the WordPress version 3.5 onwards. It is not safe to use older version of WordPress.

See this: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/links-and-blogroll-widgets-missing

That is why I recommend you to use “Custom Menu” widget. For this, you have to build the new menu through “Appearance => Menus” there you can add your links. Then you can do to “Appearance => Widgets” and add the your menu thorough Custom Menu widgets.

See this for Menu: http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
See this for Custom Menu Widget: http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/custom-menu-widget/

Thanks, very helpful. Will follow both threads. Yes, I have upgraded to WordPress 3.5.2. Should have thought of Custom Menus myself. Ooops.

Hi,

I would like to know how to customize the title of a widget: i’d like to show more words. How to modify Excerpt length(words)only for widget?

@EPICPROJECT: Sorry there is no option to do that only for the post in the widget. But you can use “3. Catch Everest: Featued Content” widget and add write down own title and content as per you need.
