Allows you to insert arbitrary widgets into any area that supports shortcodes.

Usage:

[widget "ID"]

or:

[widget "Name" number="N"]

Arguments

ID
A 8-digit ID, which you can find inside each widget settings, under “Visibility Options”. The ID is unique, meaning that if you remove the widget from the widget area, the ID will be lost, even if you add another widget of the same type again.

name
Alternate widget indentification method – Name of the widget, for example “Posts“. Since names are not unique, removing / adding the same widget later, doesn’t affect the output of the shortcode.

number
Only relevant with the name argument. For example, if you have two “Posts” widgets and you want to select the second one, use the number=2 argument to achieve that.
title
Disables / enables widget title output.
