Modern theme with widget support

The plugin is a widget. If your theme supports widgets, and you have installed the widget plugin, adding the plugin to the sidebar is easy: Go to the presentation menu and drag and drop the widget into the sidebar. All done.

Old school theme without widget support

You need to insert the following code snippet into the sidebar template.

<?php if (function_exists(‘PWGRandom_display_picture’))
{
PWGRandom_display_picture();
