Can I display widgets on the body of posts ( instead of sidebars ) (2 posts)

    Lots of plugins create "widgets" which you can later add to the left or right sidebars on themes.

    Is there a plugin or can someone outline a manual method to display these plugins on posts themselves , besides the text in these posts. ?

    I know certtain plugins do provide ability to show within posts , but I am interested in finding out how this can be done with widgets that don't do that naturally.

    Rather than using a Widget for a post, look at using Shortcodes in a post, or using a PHP Code plugin that allows you to put code in a post.

    Justin has a cool plugin that supports a bunch of template tags in shortcodes: http://justintadlock.com/archives/2009/03/24/template-tag-shortcodes-wordpress-plugin
