OS includes a kind of help document for creating custom widgets, but there isn't too much detail in there.
Example via the help doc:
$items = array();
$items['mymodule-block5'] = array(
'module' => 'mymodule',
'delta' => 'block5',
'weight' => -21,
'region' => false,
'label' => 'Latest Things',
'tags' => array('Misc'),
'block_config_path' => "path here",
);
return $items;
Whenever I try to add a config_path, I always get an error, unless I write out the whole path specifically (but that means I have to specify a particular node. i.e. node/1). Something like: http://fakesite.net/fake-name/node/1/etc/.
How would you create a widget that outputs an image or text? I am curious to know what kind of custom widgets anyone has attempted to create and if you have would you be willing to post an example here?
