I am also unable to add text and categories widgets. Why is this?
i am having the same problem
have made the “theme” files writeable for owner and group on my ftp client, is there anything else I need to do to make it work?
Make them writable for everybody. Your webserver usually doesn’t run with owner or group permissions, unless your host is using suPHP.
This is not safe, of course. We recommend editing them by downloading them and reuploading them afterwards.
