I am having the same problem. Each file and folder is where the instructions said to put them. Which leaves that my web browser is not reading the scripts. How do I fix that? I am using the latest version of Firefox.
Perhaps you both did the same thing as I did last night. Make sure you take the php files out of the Classic and Default folders and update your Classic and Default folders within wordpress contents / themes. Read the Readme text with the down load. It says it’s optional, however widgets would not show up until I did that.
Cheers! – hope this helps.
I’m having the same problem. I have removed the php files like EastVanEsica suggested, but no dice. Any other ideas? I’m seeing the same result in both Firefox and IE.
The key is to have these lines in the theme’s functions.php:
if (function_exists('register_sidebars')) {
register_sidebar();
}
Also, if your theme does not have a functions.php, just create one for it and make sure all this is in it:
<?php
if (function_exists('register_sidebars')) {
register_sidebar();
}
?>
Of course, this just turns on the Sidebar Widgets submenu under Presentation. From there you’re on your own. :)
I do have the submenu under Presentation, but no widgets are visible. Documentation suggests that the browser is not running the scripts, but I have the same issue with all browsers that I have tried.
I have the same problem. I downloaded the plugin last night but I can’t get to view it.

I’ve updated the functions files in both classic and default themes as suggested by Kafkaesqui, but still no joy, either in firefox / IE.
Any other suggestions welcome!
I have the same problem. I know a little bit about codes and PHP and did everything possible to fix it without success. I just think it is a bad plugin that does not work if your site is hosted by anyone else other than WordPress… I am giving up the widget. I will modify the Sidebar to my liking by changing the chmode period!
I give up the widget; at least until someone gives me a solution for all its bugs…
Any other suggestions? Have tried everything and I’m supposedly using a theme that is widget-friendly …

I have just started using WP but I had the same issue with the Widgets. I may have an error in my paths, but I could not get the Widgets to show up under Presentation until I took the files in the “widgets” directory and moved them *up* one level to the “plugins” directory. Now everything is peachy-keen. (And I, too, was using widget-friendly themes….)
Hi There,
I do face the same problem before that. I have found that you have put your “”scriptaculous directory in wp-includes/js”” and store the “”RSS icon in wp-includes/images”” even though the read me file said is not neccessary, but it works after you put that in the directory as i mentioned, please tried this.
After that update these files in the theme
– classic
| functions.php
\ sidebar.php
– default
| functions.php
\ sidebar.php
Make sure your theme used is widget ready, the classic and default works. But not the “Connection Reloaded” theme.
Hope that’s help.
cheers,
flwong
