Add more control over widget folders structure
Would be great to have some control over widget file loading process. For now it just looks for */*.php pattern which is not flexible. For example, I'd like to have next directory structure:
my-first-widget
-- widget.php
-- template.php
my-second-widget
-- widget.php
-- template.php
Current widgets loading process does not allow be to implement this. There is no any filters inside SiteOrigin_Widgets_Bundle->get_widget_objects() and SiteOrigin_Widgets_Bundle->get_widgets_list() functions to control glob pattern.
Different approach without using glob: load only registered widget files from internal storage of SiteOrigin_Widgets_Widget_Manager class.
Unfortunately, this isn't something we're currently interested in doing but I can definitely understand why you would want this. I'm going to put this on our backlog internally and close this one to remove it from the priority list.
Actually, we've decided to keep this open purely for public future reference as this may have come up one or twice in the past.
