If you’ve ever manually added a signature to the bottom of every blog post, you already know… it gets old fast.
That’s exactly why I created Signature Widget in the first place — and this updated version makes it even better.
Signature Widget for Genesis has officially been closed and is now called Signature Widget for Posts. Originally, this plugin was built specifically for Genesis themes, but now it’s evolved to work with any WordPress theme, giving you more flexibility than ever.
And the biggest change?
That means you’re no longer tied to one specific setup just to have a pretty, consistent signature at the bottom of your blog posts.
Whether you’re a blogger, content creator, or small business owner who wants your posts to feel a little more polished and personal, this update makes it much easier.
Because every post you write deserves your name on it.
That simple idea is really what this plugin is all about.
It gives bloggers an easy way to add a nice customized signature to the bottom of their blog posts — without having to manually insert it every single time.
You can use your signature image, and even include other items you want displayed along with it, so your posts feel more personal, polished, and consistent from one post to the next.
Why this update matters
One of the biggest problems with adding little custom touches through a theme is this:
Themes can change.
And when they do, anything built into that theme may not come with you.
That’s one reason I always prefer functionality like this to live in a plugin whenever possible.
With Signature Widget for Posts, your signature setup is no longer tied to a specific theme. So if you decide to redesign your site later, switch frameworks, or move to a completely different look, your signature feature can move with you.
That’s less hassle, less rework, and one less thing to worry about.
Your content is personal. Your signature should be too.
Where to download it right now
Signature Widget for Posts has already been submitted for approval in the official WordPress plugin repository, but you don’t have to wait. You can download it now: Signature Widget for Posts. It’s currently hosted in Payhip while it waits for official approval in the WordPress plugin repository.
And because it uses the same plugin slug, anyone who installs it now should also see it officially recognized in their WordPress dashboard once the repository version is approved and released.
If you’ve been curious about why I’m using Payhip right now, I also wrote more about that here.
That post gives a little more background on why I chose it as a simple way to make my downloads available while I continue building things out.
A simple finishing touch that makes every blog post feel more complete.

If you used the older version…
If you’re already using the older version, be sure to deactivate the old plugin and install the new one so you’re using the updated version moving forward.
If you’ve used my signature plugin before, this is a really nice upgrade.
It’s not just a new name — it’s a better, more flexible version built to work for more WordPress users.
Stop manually adding your signature to every post. Let your plugin do it for you.
