On my test site, my post form is showing up in my widget, which I like. However, I can't repeat this in my live site. How can I do this? (if you need my URL, I will message it to you)

Hey @wadams92101
The status widget normally doesn't come with the status form as far as I have seen, I wonder how you got it working on the other test site. (which sounds cool ;)

Awesome! Can't wait to try it! Also, I think it would be great added feature. BTW, I'm loving this plugin more and more. I'm testing it against Buddypress, and it actually has several key advantages over the BP Activity Stream. (e.g., I can run it on my multisite nw with a separate status stream for each child blog) Another great feature would be to allow showing of the author avatar.

Hello,
The latest plugin release (v1.5, just released) has a new placement option, titled "Widget". If you select this option in plugin settings, a new widget will appear in your Appearance > Widgets section, which will add the Status update line to your sidebar.

Here is a way to do it:
Install this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/php-code-widget/
Or if you already have some plugin to run PHP on widgets, that will do.
In the status form settings, choose "Do not place it automatically, I will place it myself".
In the plugin, add the following:
<?php if (function_exists("wdqs_quick_status")) wdqs_quick_status(); ?>That should do it. It works really cool :)
In the meantime, I will forward this as a feature request, I think this is a feature we could have in our widget itself :)

Glad to hear that you are loving it, I see many posts from you about this, so I bet you are :)
For the author avatar, why don't you make that as a feature request?
