    Hi richboom,

    The plugin instructions say you can use the [list_questions] short code to list questions. So, you can either install one of the following plugins that will allow you to use shortcodes in widgets or make a quick change to your functions.php file (3rd link below):

    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/amr-shortcode-any-widget/

    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/shortcodes-in-sidebar-widgets/

    http://www.webhostinghub.com/support/edu/wordpress/312-shortcodes-in-wordpress-widget

    Note, if you decide to make the change to your functions.php file, it is recommended that you first create a Child Theme and make your edits to the Child Theme:

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    Once you have either made the change or installed and enabled one of the plugins, you can add a text widget to your sidebar and include the shortcode to list your questions.

    Hope this helps!

    Hi richboom,

    I find it easiest to install plugins via the WordPress dashboard:

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins#Installing_Plugins

    Additionally, here are the installation instructions for that plugin (from the "Installation" tab of the plugin's page on wordpress.org. If you've already installed and activated the plugin from the dashboard, you would start at Step 2:

    Hope this helps!

    Hello again richboom,

    I found installation instructions on the plugin author's website that should be helpful:

    I've also added a tag to your post here so it's tagged correctly for the plugin author.

    Hope this helps!

    New to WordPress building FridayFunStuff.com and I was having trouble finding a menu plugin that would let me have a horizontal menu trigger a different accordion vertical menu for each horizontal menu item. All opening pages not posts.
    Any ideas?
