 * Is there a plugin that allows you to add widgets to posts, but for every widget
   to be different.
 * The only one’s I found allow you to add widget but they have to be the same on
   every post. I need them to be different as I have embed code I need to add.
 * Or is there a way I can add it straight to the text of my post.

 * Do you actually want to add a _widget _to the post content area? (Not possible,
   AFAIK.)
 * Or, do you want to add different widgets to widget areas, depending on the page/
   post someone is looking at it? In that case, the Widget Logic plugin may be what
   you are looking for:

 * Or, do you want to add different code to different posts (again, in the post 
   content area)? In that case, try using a shortcode plugin:

 * If none of the above, please advise.

   code appear at the end of my post.

 * You can use this approach to widgetize any template.
 * For example, edit the theme template file, and wherever you want the widget section
   to be, put the following lines:
 *     ```
       <?php if (!dynamic_sidebar('some name for this widgets section') ) : ?>
       <?php endif; ?>
       ```
   
 * Then, in your theme’s functions.php file, put the following:
 *     ```
       register_sidebar(array('name' => 'some name for this widgets section'));
       ```

 * Yes, but do it in a child theme!

 * Hi guys, not sure if I should start a separate thread for this but I am using
   the same SHOPSTYLE COLLECTIVE WIDGET CODE as chynna21. I currently have this 
   code inside each of posts which displays a product carousel nicely in the post.
   But I am looking to have the product carousel on my front page under the excerpt
   of the post also. Any ideas? Thanks 🙂
