Description

As the name suggests the Get Widget ID Plugin allows you to display the widget id in the widget form.

One can also get the widget id by inspecting the html but I find that rather tedious. So I wrote this short snippet.

No more inspecting elements and messing with html. Simply install this plugin and you are good to go.

It is based on this Tutorial
