How to place WordPress widgets on pages or posts - If you've ever tried to place a Widget on a page or post, you'll know that no method built into WordPress is allowed to do so. But fortunately, we do not have to rely on what is integrated in WordPress!

We will show you how to add widgets to pages in WordPress using a plugin called Amr Shortcode Any Widget.

Create Shortcode with Widget

The entire action takes place at the widget area. In the left column navigation, hover over the Appearance link and then click the link on the Widget side.
