# Widgets
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The blog module comes bundled with some useful widgets. To take advantage of them, you'll need to install the [SilverStripe widgets module](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-widgets). Widgets are totally optional - so your blog will work just fine without having widgets installed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once you have widgets installed you'll see the "Widgets" tab in the content section of your blog.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To add a widget - simply click the *plus* icon and the widget will be appear in the "Widgets currently used" column.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After you've finished adding widgets, publish your blog, and your freshly minted widgets will appear in your blog's sidebar.

|
|
|
||
|
|
The archive widget helps you keep historical content relevant, by generating a list of posts, ordered by month or year.

The blog categories widget lets your readers easily find the content they're interested in.

## Recent Posts
|
||

||
|
|
The recent posts widget is great for providing quick links to your latest content.

## Blog Tags
|

Similar to the blog categories widget, blog tags help your readers find relevant content, at more fine grained level.
