• Widgets and custom item lists are location-based, so this means that if you create a widget while logged on to ChiliFresh location, you will not see the same widget and custom item lists you created after switching to a different location
• You can display multiple different widgets on the same web page
• Once you add the widget to your web site, you can still edit it on the Admin panel - the code does not change. Which means - whenever you make a change to the widget on Admin panel, the changes will be instantly applied to the widget where it is implemented
