Twenty Fourteen: widgetize the Post Format front page so other widgets can go there, and Post Format widgets can be used in other sidebars

Description

Instead of hardcoding the home sidebar to show two posts for each non standard format in a fixed order, widgetize it and create a widget to show any number of any post format with a custom title.

In addition to more control on the homepage, this widget would also allow the sidebar on other pages to remain identical.

There are still some decisions to be made:

  • Do we keep the sidebar on the front page exclusive to formatted posts?
    • If we do, what order should the widgets have?
  • Do we offer an option to change the amount of posts within the ephemera widget?

Replying to obenland:

  • Do we keep the sidebar on the front page exclusive to formatted posts?

I don't think so. Allow any widget to be added there.
Or, it could be that if you add any other widget, they disappear.

  • If we do, what order should the widgets have?

Let them be re-ordered?

  • Do we offer an option to change the amount of posts within the ephemera widget?

Yes, that'd be a nice addition.
