  1. Can anyone tell me where can I make this widget or where can I find out it?
    thanks in advance ><

    1. This widget is included by default in all new installations of WordPress and on WordPress.com. You should be able to find it in Appearance > Widgets in your site Dashboard.

    I’d like to know how to edit the core code as well.

    1. If you’d like to know more about the widget that’s included with the self-hosted version of WordPress, your best bet is to check with the Support forums at http://wordpress.org/support/.

  5. The code for this

    from wp-includes/default-widgets.php starts lne 522 on WordPress 3.1

    function widget($args, $instance) {
    $cache = wp_cache_get(‘widget_recent_posts’, ‘widget’);
