You can keep it in your theme’s
functions.php
file but it would be better if you keep it in a separate file and then include the file infunctions.php
likeCreate the file (
mywidget.php
) and save it in your themes root folder (wherefunctions.php
is located), and paste the code in this file, that’s it. Keeping the widget code in a different file will keep yourfunctions.php
clean and your widget file will be easily readable/editable in it’s own file without looking the code infunctions.php
.
