It is turned on by activating the plugin and turned off by deactivating it. Easy, peasy! == Installation == The current version is pretty basic. It starts working as soon as it is activated and stops when deactivated. 1. Extract the zip archive to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. This should create a *widget-shortcode* subdirectory. 2.
