can’t seem to add text widget
-
I’ve tried more than a dozen times now to add the text widget on my blog, but even after each “saving”, it still doesn’t appear on the homepage. When I would check back on the dashboard for my widgets, the text widget is no longer there. I would then have to drag it back to the chosen sidebar and the same thing happens: no text widget. I’m trying to add my Afrigator logo, which I’ve already copied to the text widget.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

What browser, browser version, and operating system are you using?
Have you tried a different browser?
Have you tried logging out of wordpress, clearing your browser cache and cookies, restarting your browser and then trying again?

Hello. My browser is Mozilla Firefox, version 3.5.3 and I’m using Windows XP. I’ll try a different browser now, although please note that I have just been successful in adding my Afrigator logo to another blog at http://candobizmag.wordpress.com, so I figure that it has nothing to do with the browser per se. I’ll now logout and clear the browser cache and cookies. Thanks and still awaiting more suggestions, in case this doesn’t work.

Hello. I’ve tried what you suggested (different browser, cleared cache and cookies), but I haven’t succeeded in attaching my text widget yet. Could it be a theme-related issue? What I’ll do right now is to try to change my theme and attach the widget in the new one.

I’ve changed my theme, still can’t seem to attach my text widget. Please help. Thank you very much.

It’s http://masterpublishing.wordpress.com. Been doing all I can. Haven’t stopped trying to figure out why my text widget refuses to attach itself to my right sidebar.

Maybe give the “Accessibility Mode” a try: while on the widgets page, click Screen Options, click Enable Accessibility Mode, click the Add tab that will show up next to the widget title, etc.

@thesacredpath: Thank you very much for your help. That was like a House MD moment for me. :-) Eliminated everything else to achieve the correct solution.
@panaghiotisadam: Hey! I owe you one. Your suggestion about the Accessibility Mode worked. If you check my blog now, you can find my Afrigator logo. Really grateful. Anytime you’re here in Kenya, coffee’s on me. :-) Thank you very much.
