no, you shouldn’t have to do this.
i get report of this from time to time, but i’ve not (as yet) been able to reproduce it with any of my wp installs.
i’ll try your description later. until then if you have a step by step recipe that does this i’d be grateful.
i suspect it’s not a theme-based issue, but maybe to do with other plugins – but it’s hard to ask you to list/deactivate other plugins.
i’ll get back to you…
Thanks Alan, for your quick response. Maybe some more info can get us on the right track:
It — the setting getting lost — happens EVERY time i save any widget. It doesn’t matter if it is a simple text widget or one that came by plugin so it should not be hard to reproduce… IF you have that particular unlucky combination going on that you suspect to be another plugin.
I am using a Hybrid child theme (Hybrid News) and one particular widget called Query Posts (by the same author) that uses a similar query reset fix… Wonder if that could be the problem.
I’d be tempted to switch that particular plugin off or even switch themes to see what happens if it where not someone else’s live site this combo is running on.
do you know what, i think i’ve finally got it.
if i refresh the page after a change to a widget (or just click save in a widget), the option is undone.
woo.
thanks!
trouble is that i overlook this option as i don’t need it. which is why it’s slipped past me so easily.
ok will look for a hack and then later get it updated. been a while!…
i think i’ve fixed this, which would be awesome
line 46 should read:
$regd_plus_new=array_merge(array_keys($wp_registered_widgets),array_values((array) $_POST['widget-id']),array('widget_logic-options-filter', 'widget_logic-options-wp_reset_query'));
which if it looks good i will commit and update the repository this evening (i’m still working out why it works…)
Has anybody gotten Widget Logic to work with the “Hybrid” theme?
Never mind….user syntax error. 😐
yep, issue is fixed and should work just fine with hybrid 🙂
