Description
There are times where it would be useful to be able to pass some arguments to the callback function for a dashboard widget when adding it with wp_add_dashboard_widget()
. This would make it possible to have multiple 'instances' of a dashboard widget if desired.
For reference, I'm not the only one who has felt this need: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-parameters-to-the-callback-function-in-wp_add_dashboard_widget?replies=2
Also, add_meta_box()
, which wp_add_dashboard_widget()
calls, already supports this. All we need to do is add another argument to wp_add_dashboard_widget()
and pass it along to add_meta_box()
. The attached patch does just that.
