Can’t access widgets to modify them in

  • Unknown's avatar

    Working on a site that is self hosted and has some custom sidebars set up that I need to modify the title for. For some reason when I go to the widget edit area under Appearance the individual widget areas will not iopen for editing and I can not drag or drop widget items on them either. I’ve tried turning off all the plugins but still can’t get in. Any suggestions or adivce for troubleshooting this would be greaty appreciated thank you.

  • Hi

    If your site is self-hosted it was likely built with the open source version of WordPress and you might find the answer you’re looking for in those support forums:

    https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

    This forum only covers support for sites hosted by WordPress.com.

    If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and the open-source WordPress software you can read this article:

  • Hi there,

    Please contact support for the plugin you’re using to add the custom sidebars to your site directly for help with this, or else contact support for the theme you’re using.

    The general WordPress.org forums only help with the WordPress software itself, and not with features added by specific plugins or themes.
