This is not a big widget, but a very simple one.

Copy following code and save as blog/protected/components/Links.php.



[php]


&lt;?php





class Links extends Portlet


{


&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; public $title=&#039;Links&#039;;





&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; protected function renderContent()


&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; {


&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $this-&gt;render(&#039;links&#039;);


&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; }


}

Copy following code and save as blog/protected/components/views/links.php, or make some links whatever you like.



[php]


&lt;ul&gt;


&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.yiiframework.com/&quot;&gt;Yii&lt;/a&gt;


&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.yiijan.org/&quot;&gt;Yiijan&lt;/a&gt;


&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://phpspot.net/php/codeconv/&quot;&gt;PHP code converter&lt;/a&gt;


&lt;/ul&gt;

Add following line to blog/protected/views/layouts/main.php.



[php]


&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;?php $this-&gt;widget(&#039;Recent Comment&#039;); ?&gt;


+&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;?php $this-&gt;widget(&#039;Links&#039;); ?&gt;

Have fun
