Includes a file’s contents in the widget. Quick and dirty, all this does is use the PHP include function to include the specified file in the widget. There is NO checking done whatsoever on the file, so use it at your own risk. I wrote this because I couldn’t find a widget to do this ? plugins exist for using include in posts and pages, but not in widgets.

WP Advanced Include creates an [include] shortcode which can be used to add content from any Post or Page on your site including Post Content, Post Excerpt and Post Meta
Shortcode Attributes:
content_id = [int] The id of the post or page you wish to include content from. 
content_limit = [int] Limits the content if required, set to a value less than 1 to remove limiting – Default 0 
content_limit_type [“words”|”chars”] Sets the content limit to be words or characters – Default “words” 
content_limit_append [string|empty string] Text to be appended to the end of the content if limited – Default “&hellip” 
content_type [post_content|post_excerpt|post_title|”meta name”] The content type to be included, if meta name, specify meta name. – Default “post_content” 
do_shortcode [true|false] Specify whether to parse shortcodes of not – Default “true”
<h4>Caution</h4>
The use of [include] to include itself with do_shortcode set to true will create an infinite loop, use wisely.
<h4>Samples</h4>
simple include of post content 
[include content_id=x]
include first 50 words of post content 
[include content_id=x content_limit=50]
include first 150 characters of post content
