## Frequently Asked Questions ##

### Can I use it outside my sidebar / widget area?

Sure you can! Just call [`the_widget()`](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_widget) wherever you want to display your featured page. If you want to customize it, there's four arguments:

* `page`: The page ID. *Required*.
* `title`: The widget title.

Example:
```
<?php
the_widget( 'SX_Featured_Page_Widget', array( 'page' => 311) );
?>
```

If you don't know the page ID, you can try [`get_page_by_path()`](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_page_by_path) function:
```
<?php
the_widget( 'SX_Featured_Page_Widget', 'page=' . get_page_by_path( 'about' )->ID );
?>
```
