 * This is really great, and for someone without a ton of knowledge with wordpress,
   really straight forward and easy to understand instructions.
 * I did your debug method to find the IDs of the widgets I want to use. Now, I 
   am not sure if I am using his information correctly. I’ve just gone ahead and
   copied that entire xxxx-n xxxxx-n into my shortcode. So I have 2 different text
   boxes that read:
 * [do_widget rpwe_widget-2]
    [do_widget rpwe_widget-3]
 * Am I using this information correctly? The widget I am using is ‘Recent Posts
   Extended’… When I actually put the name [do_widget Recent Posts Extended] it 
   worked fine. Am I not using the ID’s correctly?
 * The page in question is [http://mindclickgroup.com/sandbox/](http://mindclickgroup.com/sandbox/)
 * Thanks a ton for your help.
