I think you are out of luck as wordpress core doesn’t have this kind of functionality. Quick googling shows that there are plugins to do that like this one http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/amr-shortcode-any-widget/, but if you have programming skills you should probably write a shortcode handler with/instead of the widget.
You should check out the filters assigned to widget_title add_action(‘wp_footer’,function(){ global $wp_filter; printf(‘<h2>Debug:</h2><pre>%s</pre>’,print_r( $wp_filter[‘widget_title’],true)); }); to see if there is anything unusual. Also try the Twenty Twelve theme (I don’t see this behaviour there) and deactive all plugins.

First you will replace this line <div id=”%1$s” class=”widget %2$s” data-custom-title=””> with <div id=”%1$s” class=”widget %2$s” data-custom-title=”DCT”> Now add the filter in your functions.php file. add_filter( ‘widget_display_callback’, ‘add_custom_data_to_before_widget’, 10, 3 ); function add_custom_data_to_before_widget( $instance, $widget_class, $args ) { if ( ! empty( $instance[‘title’] ) && ! empty( $instance[‘custom-title’] )) { $args[‘before_widget’] = str_replace(‘DCT’, sanitize_text_field ( … Read more

Widgets would allow the end user to reconfigure later, so if you think they may want to change things up, that would be a good way to go. If it’s not likely that they’ll want to customize this, it might be better to go with template parts. In this example, you would have a “large … Read more
