<h4>WYSIWYG Widgets or rich text widgets</h4>
This plugin adds so called “Widget Blocks” to your website which you can easily display in your widget areas.
You can create or edit the widget blocks just like you would edit any post or page, with all the default WordPress editing functions enabled. This way, you can use the visual editor that comes with WordPress to format your widgets. You can even use media uploading to insert images and so forth.
Features:
<ul>
<li>Create beautiful widgets without having to write HTML code</li>
<li>Easily insert media into your widget content</li>
<li>Add headings, lists, blockquotes and other HTML elements to your widgets using the WordPress visual editor</li>
<li>Use WP Links dialog to easily link to any of your pages or posts from a widget</li>
<li>Use shortcodes inside your widgets</li>
<li>Translation ready</li>
</ul>

Widget Content Blocks

It does what it says and works well.
Great reusable widgets for multiple sidebars in WordPress.

Works well

This is such a great way to create widget content!

Works Wonderfully!

Edit widget content using the default WordPress visual editor and media uploading functionality. Create widgets like you would create posts or pages.

Note: This plugin still works but it doesn’t really contain any major features that the native Text widget is missing. The plugin is no longer in active developement.
This plugin adds a rich text widget where the content is edited using the standard WordPress visual editor which most users already are familiar with. 
It uses the WP core function wp_editor() without adding a custom post type post for each widget making the widget quicker and simpler to edit.

WP Editor Widget

I used it to add client instructions to an admin page. This makes adding screenshots and video quite easy.



Works Perfectly

WP Editor Widget adds a rich text widget where the content is edited using the standard WordPress visual editor.
