Comment (by superpoincare):

 Earier, the code for "Recent Posts" had wp_reset_postdata().

 Now not. I understand this fix removes wp_reset_postdata() from the code
 but shouldn't it be the case that it should run after the html for Recent
 Posts has been created?

 It seems that if I want to do something, in Widgets, I have to first use
 wp_reset_postdata(). Is that logical?
