 * Hey There! Awesome plugin. I used it locally without an issue but when I’m testing
   on a multisite install I have the widgets are never imported. I see the success
   message but no widgets are appearing. I searched the recent support threads and
   didn’t see anyone mention Multisite. Is this currently supported? Thanks!

 * Hi Devin,
 * Thanks! I have a few multisite instances I can check this on, I’ll do so and 
   get back to you. You said you see the success message but no widgets, just to
   be sure, you’re referring to the import process then, correct? Does the export
   work well for you on a multisite instance?

 * Unfortunately I’m not having this issue on any of my multisite instances. Is 
   there any information in the javascript console output or in your severs error
   logs that might help track this issue down?

 * I use this plugin extensively on multisite, as well, and it seems to work for
   me.
 * Devin – Are you sure that all of the appropriate widget areas are registered 
   correctly (plugins activated, correct theme in place, etc.) before you try to
   run the importer? A while back, I did find that widget areas registered outside
   of the widgets_init action didn’t work with this plugin; not sure if that’s an
   issue you can look into or not.

 * Thanks for the input Curtiss, always appreciate other users helping out on the
   forums. Unfortunately, without more info from Devin, there isn’t much that can
   be done with this thread. I am therefore going to close it, but Devin, if you’re
   still experiencing issues, please follow up with an additional support request
   and we can begin the conversation again in that thread. I’d really like to help
   you use the plugin successfully.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Guys – Apologies for going MIA on this thread. Unfortunately, I don’t have
   much in terms of additional details for this issue. Due to my problems importing,
   I left this plugin and instead went with [http://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/widget-importer-exporter](http://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/widget-importer-exporter)
 * Best wishes with this plugin!
