Issue Resolved.

add_action( ‘widgets_init’, function(){
register_widget( ‘Rew_Login_Widget’ );
});

was used to create a new widget, then i simply copied the existing widget into my functions.php and renamed to Rew_login_widget.

Anyone have any ideas ?

    echo $count;

I was trying to following the below guide to remove the function that initializes the login widget and then redirect it to my own new one:

Obviously hasn’t worked. Any ideas ?

@mercime thank you for the response maybe I should have made the title clearer.

I need to add more functionality to the widget, mainly a notification counter. I don’t want it displayed in the administration header as this will be hidden.
