the_widget – paramater variables

Hello. I’m creating my own plugin and widget to display my latest work on my portfolio website, except I’m having some issues with the final part – displaying my data.

I’ve created a plugin which allows me to insert new data to my database – this holds information about a new project I’ve finished (Title, subtitle, href and src).

I can echo out all of this data just fine.

The next thing I did was to create a widget which allows me to display all of these bits of data, by calling it as follows:

the_widget( 'soc_latestwork','title=title here.&subtitle=subtitle.&image_src=image src&image_url=image url');

And this displays my widget just fine… Expect the issue have is that my data is stored inside an array, which I can access by doing this

$data->Title

etc.

Now, how on earth am I meant to put this data in my widget? Whatever I put inside of it just gets echo’d out as plain text.

Here is my widget code which shows this data:

function widget($args, $instance)
    {

        extract($args);

        echo $before_widget;

        ?>

<div class="col-lg-3 col-sm-3 latest-work-box" data-scrollreveal="enter left after 0.15s over 1s">

            <!-- Image box -->

			<div class="latest-work-box-wrap">

				<a href="<?php echo $instance['image_src'] ?>" >
					<img src="<?php echo $instance['image_url'] ?>" />
				</a>

				<div class="latest-work-box-wrap-bottom">

				<h1> <?php echo $instance['title'] ?> </h1>

				<h2> <?php echo $instance['subtitle'] ?> </h2>

				</div>

			</div>

		</div>

        <?php

        echo $after_widget;

    }

Thanks
