This widget has many features and it will take us several screenshots to cover them all:

- **Title**: Enter what you want to appear as the title of this section in the sidebar.
- **Show Series Table of Content**: This allows to hide the widget without removing it.
- **Dropdown/List**: This controls how the items in the series will appear on your site.
- **Show Post Count**: If checked, the number of posts in the series will be located next to each series title in the list.
- **Hide Empty Series**: If checked, any series that doesn't have any posts associated with it yet will not be included in the list.
- **Order by**: This allows you to choose how the series are ordered.
- **Order**: This expands on the previous setting. For example, if you chose "name", you can now choose "Descending" to sort the posts from A to Z.
