widgets not working
-
Hi,
I have installed WordPress 3.0.1 but the widgets not working. I am not able to open up the widgets editing interface nor drag & drop desired widgets to the sidebars – I have tested it on Firefox, IE, and Chrome.
I am using WordPress 3.0.1 on the same GoDaddy shared server for my other domain and its working fine.
Kindly advise.

Have you tried:
– deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
– switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?
– resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
– re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress?
– increasing the memory available to PHP?
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/253495#post-1017842Hi,
Thanks for your reply and have done the following but its still not working:
1) Deleted all plugins and reset the plugin via FTO.
2) Reloaded wp-admin and wp-includes folders.
3) Installed Memory Bump plugin
4) Current theme is Twenty Ten themeKindly advise.
NancyInstalled Memory Bump plugin
That plugin won’t work with WP 3.x. You need to try one of the other methods to increase memory.
Hi Esmi,
I have renamed Plugins folder via FTP, and have added define(’WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’) in wp-config.php file but still not working.
Is there a way to manage (add or delete) the widgets (side bar) via FTP by editing some files.
Please advise.
NancyI tried changing the themes and could see some widgets displayed by default for each themes. However I could get some error message while activating the themes:
========================================
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at ……/html/site-folder/blog/wp-content/themes/shaan/functions.php:6) in……/html/site-folder/blog/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 890Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at ……/html/site-folder/blog/wp-content/themes/shaan/functions.php:6) in……/html/site-folder/blog/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 890
========================================Sounds like there’s a problem with the Shaan theme specifically.
Hi Esmi,
I tried changing it to Twenty Ten and it gave the similar error message.
Is there a way to manage (add or delete) the widgets (side bar) via FTP by editing some files. I just want few widgets (right side bar) like http://www.nutriaid.us/blog/ for my new blog http://www.nutriaid.co.uk/blog/
Please advise.
NancyThanks. Every Theme has default widgets and is there a way to add or delete widgets via FTP. Pl advise.
Hi Esmi,
I can access the file manager of my server and pl advise where do I find or locate the php5.ini
Best Regds,
NancyHi Esmi,
I could create the php5.ini and have add in the root as well in the domain & blog & blog admin folder but still not working. I tried checking in IE and got the following error message. Pl advise. Nancy

If your problem with widgets didn’t not gone, please can you take a look at FireFox Javascript Error console.
If widget page loads but doesn’t work – problem in scripts.
You can manage widgets directly from database, not via ftp.Every Theme has default widgets
No. Most themes have default sidebar content that is replaced by the addition of widgets via Appearance->Widgets. To change this default content, you have to edit the theme’s sidebar.php template file.
I’ve just noticed your post about IE error.
That is what i’ve wrote about – javascript error.
Changing php.ini wont help)))
you need to locate functions.php file in your theme folder
add next lines to the begining, right after <?php tagadd_action('admin_enqueue_scripts','add_jquery_script'); function add_jquery_script() { wp_enqueue_script('jquery'); }
Thanks @esmi and @olegdudkin
I just checked the (twenty ten) theme’s sidebar.php template file and saw the following widgets codes:
<li id="search" class="widget-container widget_search"> <?php get_search_form(); ?> <li id="archives" class="widget-container"> <h3 class="widget-title"><?php _e( 'Archives', 'twentyten' ); ?></h3> <ul><?php wp_get_archives( 'type=monthly' ); ?></ul> <li id="meta" class="widget-container"> <h3 class="widget-title"><?php _e( 'Meta', 'twentyten' ); ?></h3> <ul> <?php wp_register(); ?> <li><?php wp_loginout(); ?></li> <?php wp_meta(); ?></ul>
If I add the codes for the widgets that I want here then will it be displayed on my blog. If yes then pl help me with the codes for:
1) Categories
2) Recent Posts
3) Blog RSS Feed
4) Tags
5) and any text widgetsKindly advise and thanks for your help in advance.
Best Regds,
