Why just one? #11

Suggested features:

Where one adds the .md file being displayed, could one have the option to upload a second or third file? Resulting in having several boxes on the dashboard?

To have the option to name/title the widget differently than just "welcome" would be awesome. For simplicity perhaps the filename of the .md-file. Like, "Last month summery.md" plus "This month outline.md" The various uses for such an widget would be immensely greater than being limited to just "welcome". On NC19 we every week updated 4 notes on our post-login "dashboard" using Quick Notes. Something similar could perhaps be achived with an expanded version of Welcome.

Thanks for the suggestion. With the dashboard API, it is currently not possible to have multiple instances of the same widget. Once this becomes possible, I agree that many interesting things would become possible like you suggested.

I guess it's still not possible to do that? I've just been looking for the same option... If not I guess I'll just take the welcome plugin and copy it and call it welcome2 and welcome3, so I'd be able to show several ones. Like that I'd still be quicker than creating my own Widget to show some static content.
