 * Hi,
 * I was wondering how difficult it would be to add a widget that generates links
   to content for the user based on that specific user and role? I think this would
   be an awesome addition.
 * Thanks!
 * Dana

 * It’s actually easy as it gets, you can use the shortcode in your regular text
   widget.

 * I guess I was thinking something dynamic, that automatically detects the users
   details when they login and displays the links accordingly.
 * Thanks for your quick reply. The shortcodes are very helpful.

 * This one actually does show content based on the user id.
