yep, I just noticed it, but previously the links would go “hot” without having to add anything in.
fitured it out thanks to emirhan
The solution is located here:

I put the one line of code in the widgets.php file on the line number that was the problem (for me it was line 60 – the old code was
$sidebar = array_merge($defaults, $args);
The proper code should be:
$sidebar = array_merge($defaults, (array)$args);
