Am I missing something or are there no install or usage instructions in the zip archive?
For example:
The first option "Cache Directory" - what do I enter there? And once the configuration is done - where do I get the code to create widgets in my CMS?

Good work.

Strangely, in footer of two of those demo forums, Internet Brands notice is there. Are you IB staff?

Let's hope something like this will come packaged with vBulletin 4 series.

How does this add widgets inside vbulletin? Can it show widgets within post?

Instructions are very simple - they are in the README file. You can build a widgets anywhere, inside posts, outside vbulletin on non-vbulletin pages, etc.

VB 4.0 comes with its own widget system which puts this one to shame but until then - this gets the job done.
