 * I just installed WordPress 4.0 and it breaks WidgetLogic. The dropdown widgets
   now do not dropdown.

 * I believe the stable version of WL should work fine with WP4 – I have a vanilla
   install working fine.
 * However I’m not very ‘up’ with recent WordPress developments, so I could have
   missed something.
 * I don’t really know what you mean by the drop down widgets, so if you could expand
   on that, I’ll see what I can do.

 * I’m having the same problem. I believe alanft means that the drop-down customization
   menu doesn’t work. I can use WL to specify language code, but it doesn’t expand
   to allow to select where the widget will display.

 * YES, Celeb, that is correct, the drop-down customization menu no longer works.

 * I uploaded a couple of screen caps to illustrate what we mean.
 * The widget only shows **Widget logic:** where we can enter the language code.
   There was (before WP 4.0) a **‘visibility’** button underneath that when clicked
   would expand the options to **‘Show if’ ‘page’**. That visibility button is gone
   with WP 4.0.
 * Here are the two screencaps to illustrate what I mean. This is from another site
   that is not yet running WP 4.0.

 * Only the single field under the text ‘Widget Logic’ comes from the Widget Logic
   plugin. That ‘show if’ stuff comes from elsewhere, and probably another plugin
   that makes Widget Logic redundant (or partly so)

 * Ok, I apologize for this mix-up. The ‘visibility’ module is actually a Jetpack
   plug-in feature, which only activates when the site is live. I just assumed that
   it was part of the Widget Logic plug-in because of how it displays in the admin
   panel.

 * Thanks. I deactivated Jetpack and reactivated it. This fixed the issue.

 * I’m using WP 4.1 and Widget Logic does not work anymore.
    Is there a solution
   to fix the problem or an alternative to display different Widget on different
   language (this is my necessity, translate the widgets)?
 * Thank you.
