 * [S.Walsh answered this on stackOverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75405190/wordpress-custom-widget-save-multiple-attributes/75411109).
   When defining my attributes in block.json, I had duplicate selectors (they were
   both <div>). They need to be unique. Do this by giving them a class like this:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       "attributes": {
           "theNotes": {
               "type": "string",
               "source": "text", 
               "selector": "div.the-notes", // a div with the className "the-notes"
               "default": ""
           },
           "theContact": {
               "type": "string",
               "source": "text", 
               "selector": "div.the-contact", // a div with the className "the-contact"
               "default": ""
           }
       }
       ```
   
 * See S.Walsh’s explanation. The unique classes also need to be referenced in the
   edit.js and save.js.

 * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/color-picker-option-to-use-class-instead-of-hex/#post-14819365)
 * I found a workaround using PHP template files with my Lazy Blocks. Since I’m 
   using my own custom color pallet in Gutenberg, I can return that color pallet
   as an array in my template with $myvar = get_theme_support( ‘editor-color-palette’);
 * I can then use a loop to compare the hex color that Lazy is returning with my
   array to get the corresponding class value.

 * I’m having the same problem on a new development site. If I enable the latest
   Lazy Blocks plugin, then I am unable to add any blocks to the Widget area. The
   only other plugin I have installed is Akismet and it is de-activated.
 * If I deactivate Lazy Blocks, then my Widget area works.

    I’ve been 
   using your plugin for about a decade and it has improved work life greatly. I’ll
   be sad to see it phased out. The functionality seems like such an obvious, logical
   feature. I always wondered why the options weren’t included in WP core.

 * I completely agree. I was hired to work on code someone else wrote. FWIW, here’s
   how I got it to function, where I sort by “list_order.”
 * `query_posts($query_string . &meta_type=NUMERIC&orderby=meta_value_num&meta_key

 * my customers and i have seen this same error when wordpress browser cookies have
   a conflict in Chrome. I log out of wordpress, empty my cache (including cookies),
   and (sometimes) have to restart Chrome. Then I restart chrome and log back into
   wordpress. after that, i’m able to update.

 * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/display-excerpt-ordered-by-event-date-not-post-id/#post-5673403)
 * Yes. Instead of querying post_type and calling the_excerpt(), I’ve had better
   results using em_get_events() and then using shortcodes to return the information
   that I want ordered by event_start_date. The result is a string. If knew how 
   to make the result an array, instead, then all would be well. This is what returns
   the string:
 * `$evt = em_get_events( array('limit'=>10,'orderby'=>'event_start_date,event_name','
   format'=>'#M #j #_EVENTLINK #_EVENTEXCERPT{26}') );`
 * I can explode the string into an array and achieve my goal, but starting with
   an array would be cleaner.

 * Photocrati/Cais,
    Thank you for your time. It looks like the plugin has started
   working. I’m thinking my version of PHP needed to be upgraded. The real issue
   seemed to have been that the plugin couldn’t create the thumbnails. I’ll talk
   to my host and post any helpful information I get. I can’t publish a link, yet,
   because the firewall is blocking outside traffic. I will do more testing and 
   then mark the topic resolved.

 * Yes, I used the tutorial. It’s very good. Thank you for the link. My modified
   version of the core widget still doesn’t seem to be saving data entered into 
   the fields.
 * Just like the original, my widget does this on the update func:
    return wp_widget_rss_process(
   $new_instance, $testurl );
 * I wonder if I’m not supposed to try using funcs from the core. I’ll do some more
   troubleshooting and reading.

   to the html styling, class name, construct name
