• [do_widget widgetname] eg: [do_widget calendar]
• [do_widget “widget name”]. eg: [do_widget “tag cloud”]

• [do_widget id=widgetid] . eg: [do_widget id=tag-cloud-3]

• [do_widget_area] (will use the “widgets in shortcodes” widget area / sidebar

• [do_widget_area sidebarid] or [do_widget_area widget_area=sidebarid] for another sidebar or widget area – eg: to maximise likelihood of getting your theme’s widget css to apply.

[do_widget …] Parameters:

• nameofwidget or name=” nameofwidget ” This is NOT the title of the widget. THis is the name that you see in the widgets menu page even when unassigned to a sidebar. For existing users , you can also use just the name of the widget without name=. It must be the first parameter then. You can only do this with the name, not the id.
• id= wordpress assigned id of widget . Examples: id=meta-3, id=tag-cloud-9 etc
• title=false to hide the widgets title OR to override your themes first sidebar html settings for widget titles, use title= htmltag where htmltag is one of h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,header,strong,em.
• wrap= htmltag where htmltag is one of div,p,main,aside,section. This will override your themes first sidebar widget wrapping html.
• widget_classes=none This will remove the class “widget” from the wrapping html and the class “widget_title” from the title html. This may be enough to remove any unwanted css caused by your theme.
• class= yourclassname By default the plugin will add a class of amr-widget to the wrapping html. You can use this to add any special css. Add css either by editing your themes stylesheet if it is a custom theme, or using something like the wordpress custom css plugin.
• sidebar=” sidebarname ” will default to widgets_for_shortcode sidebar. Only use if you want to re-use a widget already being used in another sidebar. THis is theme dependent and WILL break if you change themes. Safer to use the widget_id.

[do_widget_area …] Parameters:

• widget_area= yourwidgetarea defaults to ‘widgets_for_shortcodes’ if nothing entered
• widget_area_class=none /* option to remove theme styling by removing the widget_area class from the sidebar html */
• widget_classes=none /* option to remove the widget class from the widget wrappinghtml
• class= yourclassname default is amr_widget_area. This will affect the widget area NOT the individual widgets. At the moment can only remove the widget classes, not replace them when using do_widget_area.

Advanced users WARNING: using do_widget_area with a widget area other than the shortcode one means that if you changes themes and the new theme has different sidebars, then this shortcode with a named widget area will not work.

See the settings page for links to help your create the shortcodes in a page.

The plugin has been tested with most standard widgets (rss feeds, tag cloud, pages, meta, search, and of course my own plugins widgets – upcoming events list, calendar and user lists.

If you use a widget more than once for different reasons, you may need to use the widget id to isolate which widget instance and it’s settings to use. ie: [do_widget id=categories-6] . If you just use the name, it will display all widgets in the shortcode sidebar with that name (all instances).
