* **\*\*\*GOT IT\*\*\***
* For the people who want to change/add a widget title manually (and the Widget
Sidebar doens’t give them this option):
* 1. Look in the widget php-file for the following code:
* > echo $before_widget . $before_title . $options[‘title’] . $after_title; ?>
* This is the php-code that makes the title of your widget show up.
* 2. Insert the following code (the bold one):
* > echo $before_widget . $before_title . $options[‘title’] ** = “WRITE YOUR WIDGET
> TITLE HERE”** . $after_title; ?>
* 3. Change the frase **WRITE YOUR WIDGET TITLE HERE** into the widget title you
want to show up and save the document
* 4. Replace the old widget php by the new customized one and be happy that you
didn’t have to search halve a week for an answer;)))
* _Needless to say that in most cases the Widget itself gives the user the option
to change the title in the Presentation > Sidebar Widgets menu. _

* Well, I got a little further, but I’m definitale lacking good PHP-knowledge.
* The title is produced by a code on the widget’s php-file that says:
* > echo $before_widget . $before_title . $options[‘title’] . $after_title; ?>
* The HTML-validator translates this line to:
* >
* So it’s here that I should insert the title:
* >
* But as I only see the first piece of code in my PHP-file I’m really lost here.
Hoping for suggestions;)

* > function widget_curreX_options()
> {
> return array(
> **‘title’ => “”,** ‘default_from’ => “USD”, ‘default_to’ =>“
> USD”, ‘decimal_places’ => ‘2’ );
> AND
> echo $before_widget . $before_title . **$options[‘title’]** . $after_title;?
> >
> Is anybody less puzzle as I am;)

* It actually does work with widgets (I’m running both plugins). Check the comments
on the [downloadsite](http://geekyweekly.com/mypageorder/) to find out how.

* My gues: look in your style.css for the following line and change the color code:
* div.blog_item .item_title a {
color:#646464; }
* To find your color code:

* Maybe the [Widgetize Anything](http://www.erik-rasmussen.com/blog/index.php?p=140)
plugin could be helpful.
* From the author’s website:
