# Widgets are not saving

 * I’m unable to add any new widgets in my sidebar or footers. It just keeps showing
   buffering next to the save button. Or, if somehow I manage to save the widget
   and when returning back or refresh the page I see it isn’t saved.
    For now, I’m
   using easy accessibility mode to add widgets. But that’s a long process. It isn’t
   even showing any errors or debugs to know the issue.
 * Any help will be much appreciated. Thank-you.

 * You are using get_sidebar incorrectly. That function “Includes the sidebar.php
   template file from your current theme’s directory.” And if you include a parameter,
   it loads a file matching that parameter name, not a sidebar of that name [UPSers](https://www.upsers.app/)

 * Get Sidebar? Is that a plugin?
    See, I was able to add any widgets before and
   I haven’t changed anything since then. So how it’s possible ? And moreover I 
   still able to modify previously added widgets. I’M facing the problems with adding
   new ones, it isn’t saving.
 * And, Please tell me How can I fix it ?
    Thankyou foy your response.
