[Support request] Rename default widget

[Devesh]

Is there any way to rename the widget title. For e.g. I want to rename the default “recent posts” widget with something like “Related Posts”

Hi there,

if you go to the Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets and select that widget in the sidebar you can add your own Title

Thanks, this solved it.

I had one more query, if i need to customize the wideget. for e.g. i want to add image with the related post title, what will be the process. Thanks

You would need to use a plugin for that.
I personally like Tom’s WP Show Post plugin:

But if you only need it for related posts in the sidebar then maybe this:
