# Notice: Undefined variable: echo

 * Got this error when adding a shortcode into a post.
 * `Notice: Undefined variable: echo in /var/www/html/site/wp-content/plugins/widget-
   shortcode/init.php on line 75`
 * You can fix this by adding ‘echo’ => false to line 43 of init.php, so the extract
   statement looks like this:
 *     ```
       extract( shortcode_atts( array(
       		'id' => '',
       		'title' => true, /* wheather to display the widget title */
       		'before_widget' => '',
       		'before_title' => '',
       		'after_title' => '',
       		'after_widget' => '',
       		'echo' => false
       	), $args));
       ```
