# Widgets page not functional.

 * So, I have a freshly installed WordPress. Was setting it up on localhost, and
   I attempted to access the Widgets page.
    I cannot drag and drop anything. When
   I click, the URL changes to (for example) [wp-admin/widgets.php#available-widgets](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widgets-page-not-functional/wp-admin/widgets.php?output_format=md#available-widgets)
 * Any ideas?
 * This is the error I get in the console:
 *     ```
       Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'click' of undefined
       (anonymous function)
       l load-scripts.php:2
       c.fireWith load-scripts.php:2
       v.extend.ready load-scripts.php:2
       A load-scripts.php:2
       ```

 * Try re-uploading all files & folders – **except** the wp-content folder – from
   a **fresh** download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies of
   files & folder before uploading the new ones.

 * Try adding `define('SCRIPT_DEBUG', true);`to the bottom of your wp-config.php
   file (just before the `require_once` line).

 * Still no difference..
    I’m really out of ideas, and don’t know what to do.
