Implements a set of WordPress shortcodes and theme additions that allow widget content (initially just sidebars but eventually any text) to be used in any page or post using simple shortcodes.

[show_sidebar id=\"<sidebar id>\"]\n

\n","installation":"

Install Widget Magic either via the WordPress.org plugin directory, or by uploading the files to your server. If uploading the files to your server create a widget_magic directory in your /wp-content/plugins/ directory and upload widget_magic.php into that directory.
Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
