Different Shortcodes of same Widget with Different Options?

    Hi,
    First of all I would like to say that your plugin is great! 🙂
    I am using a widget (“(bbPress) Recent Topics” to be precise) for my forum. This widget has 2 options to sort by recent topics and popular topics, which i would both like to display in different instances (However, despite its dual functionality it still has the name “(bbPress) Recent Topics”). I was wondering, since both variations of the widget have the same name, while they may have different selected options, ultimately how would i differentiate between them in the shortcode? Would I have to use their widget ID, and if so would this make each specific variation have a unique shortcode? And if so, how would I get such an ID using firebug, the firefox plugin, since i have no idea which part of the code is the id? The debug method doesn’t work for me.

    Thanks

    Hi what do you mean it doesn’t work for you?

    It Cannot not work.

    Have you created two instances in the short code sidebar? See all the instructions on the plugin pages – you should be able to figure it out .

    At the very least a straight do widget would do both.
