 * Excellent plugin…using multiple instances to display categories of links by country…
   is it possible to change the widget title so each instance of “Links” would instead
   be titled with the country name…?

 * To change the widget title, just change the instance title in widget admin screen,
   so that the title of each widget instance is different. The plugin shows the 
   title from the instance title.
    Or, you can use the title=”0″ parameter to suppress
   the title, and enter it manually where you display your widget, like: `<h3>Country
   </h3>[widget id="links-1" title="0"]` This option has been added in 0.2.

 * Thanks, but I’m referring to the title in the widget drag bar that says ‘arbitrary’,
   and the bar titles of each cloned ‘Links’ widget I drag into the shortcode ‘arbitrary’…
   so arbitrary would be ‘countries’ and each instance of links would be ‘france’,‘
   italy’, etc.
 * Thanks again in advance,

 * Well, for that you need to edit the plugin file, but I don’t see why you’d need
   that. 🙂 The backend doesn’t matter, users will only see the front-end. But if
   need any help, let me know.

 * Thanks…each instance of a country – there will be dozens – will all appear as“
   Links” to editors (there will be several) when they open ‘arbitrary’. They will
   have to open each ‘links’ to find the correct country to edit…
 * Can you provide some guidance on how to edit the plugin file to accomplish…?
 * Thanks again
 * BTW, using WP “Links” in Arbitrary for each country…

 * To edit the sidebar name you have to edit init.php file on line 106. For the 
   country titles, you can just set the links’ widget title to the name of the country.
   
   Hope that helps.
