Ever wonder how differently you can design your Blog with Widgets, when you have the option of choosing which one is displayed where? Widget Logic for WordPress helps you achieve exactly the same. Take full control of your WordPress Widgets.
Widget Logic gives every plug in an extra field called Widget Logic. This field lets you control how your Widgets appear on the Sidebar.
Consider This Example
On Smart Blog Tips, I wanted to Show List of Popular Post on Front Page. But when the visitor is on a single post or page, I wanted to also display list of Recent Post available to him. Here are the screenies of them. It can be done using Widget Logic in seconds.
Front Page with only Popular Post displayed
Single Page with both Popular Post and Recent Post dsiplayed
Widget Logic option in Recent Post Widget
Widget Logic Installation and Resources
Installation is straight forward like any other plug-in. Go to the Admin Panel –> under Plug ins Tab click “Add New” then type “Widget Logic” and install it. Alternatively you can grab the plug in from below
There is a lot of things this plug in can do. At the moment I will let you figure it out. But I am planning to write post on how to overcome different problems using this simple yet wonderful plug in.
Have a nice Day..!!

Hi!
I first heard about Widget Logic when I heard about it from one of the folks on the WordPress IRC channel. I blogged about Widget Logic too and thought I would share it with you and your readers:

BTW, when you stated “This field lets you control how your Widgets appear on the Sidebar” on your post, I got the idea that Widget Logic lets users determine where on the sidebar the plugin appears (visible/hidden as well as ordering/position) though from my usage, all I can tell is that the widget shows or hides widgets on specific pages based on the expression entered for the widget logic.
