So you’re not able to edit text widgets using Front-end Editor 1.6?
Can you give me the URL of your site?
I’d rather not give out the link publicly, call me paranoid…
I verified that with the previously installed version it works as fine as ever; pulled it out of a recent backup.
Installing the 1.6 has definately caused the error as far as I can figure out.

Well, I can’t help you unless I have more information.
You’ll just have to use the older version of the plugin.
What else would you like to know apart from WP version [2.9]?

Can you paste the code used to register the sidebar? It’s usually located in functions.php in your theme’s folder and looks something like this:
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') ) {
register_sidebar(array(
'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
'after_widget' => '</li>',
'before_title' => '<h2 class="widgettitle">',
'after_title' => '</h2>',
));
}
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
register_sidebar(array(
'name'=>'sidebar_full',
'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="sidebaritem %2$s"><div class="sidebarbox">',
'after_widget' => '</div></li>',
'before_title' => '<h2 class="widgettitle">',
'after_title' => '</h2>',
));
register_sidebar(array(
'name'=>'sidebar_left',
'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="sidebaritem %2$s"><div class="sidebarbox">',
'after_widget' => '</div></li>',
'before_title' => '<h2 class="widgettitle">',
'after_title' => '</h2>',
));
register_sidebar(array(
'name'=>'sidebar_right',
'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="sidebaritem %2$s"><div class="sidebarbox">',
'after_widget' => '</div></li>',
'before_title' => '<h2 class="widgettitle">',
'after_title' => '</h2>',
));
register_sidebar(array(
'name'=>'footer_left',
'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
'after_widget' => '</div>',
'before_title' => '<h3>',
'after_title' => '</h3>',
));
register_sidebar(array(
'name'=>'footer_middle',
'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
'after_widget' => '</div>',
'before_title' => '<h3>',
'after_title' => '</h3>',
));
register_sidebar(array(
'name'=>'footer_right',
'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
'after_widget' => '</div>',
'before_title' => '<h3>',
'after_title' => '</h3>',
));
Only the sidebar_full is in use though.

Ah… now I see the problem:
'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="sidebaritem %2$s"><div
The plugin searches for the ‘widget’ class, but you have ‘sidebaritem’ instead.
Try changing that line to this:
'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="widget sidebaritem %2$s"><div
Thank you ver much scribu, it works now. 🙂
On a sidenote, does having two classes, or rather a different classname, interact in any other way with the blog/theme?
Just curious, is all…

The widgets might get some extra styles applied to them from the extra class, but besides that, no.
Hello and happy new years 🙂
I’ve just updated Front-end editor and I’ve the same problem.
It’s impossible now to change text widget.
I changed class to “widget sidebaritem %2$s” in my function.php page but no results.
Thanks to help me 🙂

tomagladiator, what version of WP are you running?
Can you spare the site URL, or are you paranoid too? 🙂

But I’m paranoid too ^^
I use actually WordPress 2.8.4
Thanks you Scribu 🙂 I appreciate your help

The markup looks alright. It should be working.
Btw, wouldn’t a single text widget be easier to work with, instead of having 10?
