Today’s Sweet Plugin is the WP Core Contributions Widget plugin, which is easily one of my favorites because it’s both specific to the WordPress community and so simple that it just adds a widget to your WordPress installation. If you know me at all, you know I love plugins with a tiny footprint.

The video is embedded at the top of this post’s page, with more about the plugin below.

WP Core Contributions Widget

WP Core Contributions Widget is a fun widget-only plugin that allows you to display your props on WordPress Trac tickets in your blog’s sidebar. It’s a fun way to show your code contributions to WordPress and, if you haven’t contributed much (like me) it will act as positive encouragement to do more.
