    I upgraded to wordpress 3.2, and ever since then I cant expand my widgets in my Appearance. After placing widgets in my sidebars, I cant expand them to add anything or make changes. They just stay in the sidebars and are applied on my blog with their default settings. I have tried removing all my plugins, but dint make any difference. btw, i'm using wordpress multisite and buddypress.. Can anyone help me out?

    Thanks

    BuddyPress 1.2.8 has a couple of small issues with WordPress 3.2, mainly with javascript in the BP-Default theme. New version released on July 5th resolves this.

    This is my 2nd complain on the same thing I am adding to this string... I can't access any of my widgets. I can't add images though the media tool. Nothing will expand.

    Can we get a comprehensive answer to this problem asap, PLEASE.... ALL the sites that got this update are jacked up. This is causing me a lot of problems.

    I appreciate what this product does and the ability to access the way we can but I feel really sucker punched over this new version. Please fix.

    scott4design - Please don't post like this in other similar, but NOT the same posts. You're making it harder to help anyone.

    Guys, I promise, it's okay to make your own topics :)

    And start with the STANDARD debugging: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/troubleshooting-wordpress-32-master-list?replies=7

    Turn off ALL your plugins change your theme. WordPress changed the java backend and many plugins and themes were doing things in 'bad' ways that are causing issues.

    I am experiencing the same issue in all my blogs (10+). They are using different themes and plugins. I have deleted all plugins, but no luck.

    As scott4design mentioned, we need a solution for this ASAP as it is impacting many website. In my case all of my websites.

    Can someone please help?

    Ok I've done all of the above but to no avail.

    Another person with the same set up, FF 5 Mac OS X, has NO PROBS with the widgets so that leads me to believe this is a client-side issue but what?

    I've updated my system Java, disabled all Addons and no change.

    Any additional help and investigation would be helpful...

    WORK-AROUND: go to "screen options" tab in the upper left and turn on Accessibility mode, which disables the jquery dragging and dropping. Slower, but it works.

    Have you tried:

    - deactivating all plugins (yes, all) to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s). Don't forget the ones in mu-plugins. If you can't get into your admin dashboard, try resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    - switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.
