Many of the WordPress plugins authors don’t offer widgets, but only raw PHP functions (or hooks) which you have to insert into the theme’s template files. As the number of functions increases it becomes harder to manage it all, especially if you decide to uninstall some of them or add new ones.

It is especially inconvenient for those who are not so savvy, or don’t want to edit theme files. Moreover, if one decides to change the theme, the edits have to be repeated all over again.

At CompitentHosting we have made a Custom Widget Plugin which will allow you to create upto 20 sidebar widgets without ever touching the theme’s files and use these widgets in any theme you like.
