 * Hello,
    I love your plugin, but I do have one request. Could you edit the option
   for displaying the title. So if I leave the title section blank, nothing is shown
   instead of the default.
 * Thank you!
    Andrew

 * Yes, I’ll add that in this week.
 * Until then you can probably just give ` ` for the title and it will look
   blank.

 * I’m using version 1.5.1 of the plugin, which appears to be the latest available.
 * I tried to send this same request to the support address, but the email bounced
 *     ```

 * Luke, I hope nothing serious is wrong!
 * Here’s what I tried to send via email:
    ============ Thank you for writing this
   widget!
 * I think it would be useful to others to be able to suppress the Title line.
 * You could potentially add a checkbox for this.
 * For my purposes, I commented out the line in the plugin where you set a
    default
   title if the title was empty. Then when the title is empty, it doesn’t output
   the Title line at all.
 * I originally put in   for a title, which does suppress the title text,
    but still
   outputs a blank line.
 * best regards,
    ============
 * In case someone else wants to make the same edit I did while we’re waiting for
   the new feature, comment out this line:
    `/* $title = ! empty( $instance['title'])?
   $instance['title'] : __( 'Meta', 'customMetaWidget' ); */`
