Hi there,
Thank you for using our theme for 8 years!
Here are a few ways you can manage your widgets:
1. Use the Main Dashboard
Instead of clicking the pencil icons in the Customizer:
- Go to your WordPress Dashboard.
- Navigate to Appearance > Widgets.
- Edit your sidebar widgets directly from this page.
2. Install the Classic Widgets Plugin
If the current widget screen is giving you trouble:
- Go to Plugins > Add New.
- Search for Classic Widgets (by WordPress Contributors).
- Click Install and Activate.
This will revert your widget section back to the traditional format. Check for Plugin Interference
Sometimes updates to other active plugins on your site can conflict with the live preview and cause editor buttons or pencil icons to stop responding as expected.
Let us know if any of these options help you update your sidebar!
