FAQ
- Why was this plugin created?
-
When switching themes, widgets sometimes get “stuck” in the old theme’s sidebars/widget areas. This plugin allows you to quickly and easily reset your widgets.
- Will my widget information be saved?
-
No. No. No.
I can’t stress enough that this completely resets everything. So, if you have some important information saved in something like a text widget, you better save it before resetting your widgets.
In short, don’t complain if you reset your widgets and lose information that you have been told to save.
