No custom sidebars but plug-in active..?

Hi @justrunlah,

Thanks for posting on the forum.

Have you changed the theme?

If you have changed the theme then the sidebars not supported in activated theme will move to “Inactive Sidebar”.

Either use your existing theme or recreate the Custom Sidebars.

Kind Regards,

Hi @justrunlah,

I have tested it on my test site installing older version of Custom Sidebars plugin and updating it to the latest version but couldn’t reproduce the issue that you are facing.

Have you manually or automatically updated the plugin?

Which version of WordPress are you using? Single site or multisite?

Are you using any caching plugin?

Share me your site URL if you can.

If you can just try on your development site deactivating all other plugins and using default WordPress theme like Twenty Thirteen as displayed in the following flowchart to know which theme/ plugin is conflicting if any.

Would you mind if I logged in to your site and did some testing? This might help get to the bottom of this faster. If this is ok, just send log in info on my email id contact@wpmudev.org
– Include my name in the subject “Vinod Dalvi”
– Include the URL of this post in your message so that I may track this issue better
– Include login information (WordPress admin info username + password )

I have the same problem.

If it helps the tickbox “sidebars” has gone from the Screen Options dropdown at the top of every page/post.

Also the “create new sidebar” blue button has gone from the Widgets page and the old option under appearance is no longer there.

The sidebars show at the bottom of the Widgets Page saying “Inactive Sidebar Not Used”

I am using twenty eleven latest version.

I have changed nothing on the site they just disappeared when I did the latest updat to v 2.0.9.3

Same problem here too!

WordPress 3.9.2
WPMUDEV Custom Sidebars 2.0.9.3

After updating the plugin, custom sidebars does not appear to be running and all widgets are now deactivated.

Nothing else was updated on this website.

Thanks!

Hi Guys

Got the update today but that seems to have created a new problem. When I click the Create New Sidebar button the window that opens is half hidden so cannot be completed. I can send a screenshot if you can tell me where to send it.

I have tried it on 4 comps in two countries so its not local to my machine.

Thanks for all efforts on this

Hi Philipp

I am not the only one for whom it has changed as someone else commented the same in the thread now marked “resolved”

I CAN add them on ipad so its not a major problem. Its only on the PC that this occurs.

I did as you suggest and it makes no difference.

Windows 7
Not seeing any Java errors – we get the same on 4 different PCs in 2 different countries.

Sending screenshot to Vinod.

Thanks for your help. As I say its not major as I dont have the problem on ipad so I can add new ones there then use the PC.

Hi @thaigerweb,

Thanks for sharing the screenshot.

I could reproduce the issue on my test site on Windows 7 Firefox browser therefore i have notified the plugin developer to fix it.

In the meanwhile to fix this issue either add the following CSS code in your site using the plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/add-admin-css

div.widget-liquid-right {
    z-index: 1049;
}

Or add the following code in the functions.php file of your child theme.

add_action('admin_head', 'my_custom_fonts');

function my_custom_fonts() {
  echo '<style>
    div.widget-liquid-right {
    	z-index: 1049;
	}
  </style>';
}

Cheers,
