I love the layout of the new interface. So I ugraded my live site, using the same theme, same plugins, same widgets, same host, same upgrade script.... must be something different somewhere. I lost <strong>ALL</strong> widget control, can't add, remove, save, tried to reset the widgets and then lost them all... finally did a roll back to 2.6. Widgets and widget controls are back on the live site. Same problem no matter what browser i try, dumped the cache, refreshed, rebooted, logged in, logged out. </p> <p>Why does it work on one site and not the other? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/246098#post-993572 Sat, 21 Feb 2009 15:21:03 +0000 mrkenray 993572@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>in the Dashboard, the widget editor is saying "Using 0 widgets" (this is with the "Fresh Editorial" pre-loaded theme) - yet, the "ADD" button for META, PAGES, and "Recent Posts" is not appearing.</p> <p>The bug runs across themes - i have tried several of the ones that come with the basic installation.</p> <p>It runs across browsers - i've hit it with Chrome, Firefox and IE...</p> <p>Is latest version 2.7.1 </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/193442#post-991467 Thu, 19 Feb 2009 18:17:27 +0000 themeweaver 991467@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Well I did discover 1 thing...<br /> the Database does not flush old theme setting when you change themes.<br /> So...I am guessing that somewhere that is where the isssue is... </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/193442#post-991386 Thu, 19 Feb 2009 17:21:18 +0000 themeweaver 991386@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Having the same problem...<br /> Widgets that were activated for a past theme cannot be used...the add is missing from the widget.</p> <p>I can't edit, add or remove the widget now...<br /> I am wondering if I should just de a clean instal...hate to do it.</p> <p>Anyone else get this figgured out yet? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-986235 Sat, 14 Feb 2009 17:48:20 +0000 drhill 986235@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>for me the upgrade from 2.3 to 2.7 was easy and error free - with the exception of 1 javascript I am running...still no answers or direction yet...is there any 'meeting place for wordpress / javascript issues yet? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-977346 Thu, 05 Feb 2009 23:17:31 +0000 andrewcc 977346@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Javescript doesn't work on my 2.7 installation.

It's a fresh install, well upgrade, and even with all plugins turned off and switching themes it's assuming there are 7 widgets enabled - pages, archives, search and three category widgets.</p> <p>Other widgets I can use, but these are assumed as being used but don't show up anywhere for me to deactivate or switch.</p> <p>I've also played with it in several browsers - all produce the same results. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-880330 Mon, 20 Oct 2008 19:16:21 +0000 Anatis 880330@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I've just installed 2.7 on a testblog.</p> <p>Is there a way to display both sidebars on the widget page (like in 2.3) so you can drag and drop between them?<br /> If not, then it needs to be there. HAS to be there. It's the single biggest complaint from all my users (I host multiple sites) and it's the number one reason for all of us to not upgrade to any new version so far.</p> <p>Sorry, but give me a damn good reason why we can't have the widget interface from 2.3 back? </p> <p>2.7 has a lot of improvements, but the widgets still suck the way they are. I want to see both sidebars at the SAME time, not switch between them. I want to be able to drag a widget from one bar to the other, into the position I want it. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-872829 Thu, 09 Oct 2008 18:54:57 +0000 wizian 872829@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I'm having a similar problem with the plugin nextgen-gallery.</p> <p>The problem occurs on ubuntu/64bit/FF3, vista/FF3, xp/FF2<br /> No problem with vista/IE7 or xp/IE6</p> <p>Using wp2.7 from 2008-10-08 </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-847789 Mon, 08 Sep 2008 02:42:52 +0000 admaust 847789@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Works great!

It's simpler, but it gets the job done.

Everything was working until I enabled it. Try just disabling it. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-845425 Thu, 04 Sep 2008 22:23:49 +0000 admaust 845425@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Thanks. I appreciate all your comments and to know that it's not just my blog is encouraging. After reading the comments above, I deactivated <strong>all</strong> my plugins and re-activated them in groups, and now the widget page is working normally. </p> <p>It first worked with all plugins deactivated and has continued to work as I've re-activated them. Hopefully, the same solution can work for the above affected. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-845363 Thu, 04 Sep 2008 21:05:18 +0000 Evita 845363@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Well I think it depends on your own browser settings and also on the plugins used in WordPress - I´m using 24 plugins on a live blog with 2.7 and all of them are working without major problems. But I will update and see if widgets will also work for me.<br /> And let me say, 2.7 is very very cool, I love it. Great work of the team. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-845303 Thu, 04 Sep 2008 19:42:03 +0000 Otto42 845303@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Works perfectly well for me in FF3 and IE7. Latest SVN, I just updated it from trunk right now. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-845284 Thu, 04 Sep 2008 19:23:22 +0000 Evita 845284@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Same for me with FF3.1 and IE7, but it works with Opera. For sure it´s a JavaScript issue. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-845012 Thu, 04 Sep 2008 13:31:31 +0000 Jowah 845012@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I'm addressing this issue as well, i kinda tried on my own to edit code, replace stuff but unsuccesfully~ </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/201325#post-844686 Wed, 03 Sep 2008 23:29:26 +0000 admaust 844686@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>On the widgets admin page (<code>/wp-admin/widgets.php</code>) the only buttons that are clickable are 'Search Widgets' and 'Save' for Samsarin PHP Widgets. The rest are unclickable and I am unable to add, remove, edit, and rearrange widgets. I tried deleting my <code>widgets.php</code> file and uploading the <code>widgets.php</code> from 2.6.1 and then from the svn repository for 2.7 and that did nothing. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/193442#post-818360 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 18:28:50 +0000 tucsonsam 818360@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I activated the Daleri Sweet theme, added some widgets to the sidebars, and tried to change the information in one of the sidebars, but it ended up in the header, so I then edited the sidebar.php file, and everything on both sidebars disappeared.</p> <p>Now, no matter what theme I use, I cannot find certain widgets. They are not used in the sidebar, but they are not available in the list of available widgets. It seems the widgets I can't find (like Calendar) only show up if that particular theme had a calendar on it in the test run.</p> <p>I liked the Daleri Sweet, and would like to use it, but don't know how to get the side bars back, and I like the theme I've got on there now, called Blue-Hues, but want to put a calendar, and maybe some other things on it. </p> <p>Can anyone help? </p>
