Copyright Notice and IP Tracker Missing.
-
In the summer I had posted Block Widget will not allow me to update IP Tracker Code
TraceMyIP.org has contacted me and told me I need to update my code. This Block Widget is making it impossible. I put the New Code in as Text, hit Update but when I click onto the flashing tracker it is the same Old code.
I have told them this, they’re exact response was: Message:
Yes, you need to write them a comment. WordPress.com has become a hassle for many. Most of our clients moved to a self hosted version of WordPress which unlocks ALL the features and freedom of publishing with real WordPress platform.Well I don’t have the $$$ to get Self Hosted.
Why in the world can’t you put option to use Classic Widget. I just don’t understand all this confusion and why you went to this Block thing.

Hi there,
That tracking code is some HTML you have added via a text widget at the top of your sidebar.
To update it, go to Appearance ->Customize ->Widgets ->Sidebar. Click on the first widget appearing there, the one with your copyright notice. The HTML code is at the bottom of that widget, and you can just replace it there by typing/pasting the new code and deleting the existing code.
OK. Now I saw my Copyright notice gone along with the IP Tracker. I followed these directions to a Tee, but I cannot even Find the widget where this was. It is absent.
When I wrote this in July: This Block Widget is making it impossible. I put the New Code in as Text, hit Update but when I click onto the flashing tracker it is the same Old code.
Now Can’t even find or see widget and certainly don’t see any place for text.
Sorry for the long details but I really want that Copyright Notice back, I never could replace the old code.
Please Help. And I have Desktop Computer (it is an older OS). Don’t have or use smart phones.
Thank You

Oh and that Copyright Notice and IP Tracker (blinking at one time) was just under:
Woodstock 40Th Annivesary, The Legacy of Ted Kennedy will continue
I guess that would have been First Widget, but again it had text I could get to. Now gone.

Now just saw this in Red:
The “text” block was affected by errors and may not function properly. Check the developer tools for more details.
I am really lost now. :(

OMG Just found this.
https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/blocks-freeze/
I read through all of the comments. I have cleared everything as these people did. Cache, cookies, turned off Ad Blocker. I use Opera and Firefox Browsers.
There didn’t seem to be a final conclusion by staff on that link. My Copyright Notice was there just a couple of days ago. But again I just saw:
The “text” block was affected by errors and may not function properly. Check the developer tools for more details. I don’t even know how to check developer tools.
Not being sarcastic at all but how I wish you would do away with this Jet Pack and these Blocks and go back to the Classic Editor.
But still need Help. Please.

Can someone please Help With This.
Copyright notice and IP Tracker, Widget with text missing it was in Gone. Again when I went into widgets this Error Notice was in red on top..
The “text” block was affected by errors and may not function properly. Check the developer tools for more details.
I honestly do not know where the developer tools are and shouldn’t the developer be looking into this. Just need some help with this. Thanks.

Hello there,
Many thanks for reaching out.
Can you share the code you’re looking to use into this thread please, we can take a closer look and aim to get that added if possible.

That ticket fromTraceMyIP.org was closed after July. for new code. But I can open a new ticket requesting a new code again.
At this point I’m more concerned about restoring all the Copyright wording back. From 2009-and never got a chance to update it to 2023, but that part was there just a week ago.
Also realized I also had Copyscape notice placed on that text widget so people cant steal the content. That was also there a week ago.
Well can this be fixed? The “text” block was affected by errors and may not function properly. Check the developer tools for more details.
Or at least offer again the option for the classic editor so these 3 things can be added again or seen again? I had a at least a paragraph of that Copyright wording. I have very specific blogs I do not want people just stealing from them. IP Tracker Gone, Copytright, Copyscape.
Entire text widget gone, this just isn’t right.

Whoops, that was posted before I was done. I believe this is the copyright wording you’re looking for:

Yes but how do I put it back? Again this widget is not working? I cannot get to this widget. I’m getting:
The “text” block was affected by errors and may not function properly. Check the developer tools for more details.
Therefore the IP Tracker is Gone, the Copyright wording is Gone. and the Copyscape which was an functioning icon when you clicked onto it is Gone.
All this was visible. I Thank you for the Copyright wording but this Text Widget needs to be fixed so everything that now is missing but as the error I get stating: The “text” block was affected by errors and may not function properly. Check the developer tools for more details.
I can’t fix this. Who is the developer? And why aren’t they addressing this? I don’t get it? Over a week ago everything was there in widget below the part that states Woodstock 40Th Annivesary, The Legacy of Ted Kennedy will continue.
You were able to copy the block. Well the Widget is gone. How can I put the wording back to a widget that has obviously gone haywire. I know I’m reiterating this but this is what I get when I go to Appearances, Widget, (Text Part non existent) then I see The “text” block was affected by errors and may not function properly. Check the developer tools for more details.
I can’t put wording to Copyright, Put Back the IP Tracker that was visible and Copyscape that was visible. Because the block was affected by errors and may not function properly. Check the developer tools for more details.
HELP ME PLEASE. WordPress has to fix this, I can’t. I can’t get to what you were able to get to. You click on my Blog, all these are missing. I appreciate you getting the wording but that needs to be back on the blogsite.

I was able to add this to Copyright to the Menu in length. © COPYRIGHT ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 2009-2023, then applied the words you were able to copy when that is clicked onto. I was unable to move it though straight to the top after HOME. It says EDIT, but I have no idea how to place it where I want it. It says I can drag it??? But I can’t. How do I do this? Place it where I want
I just honestly want it back in the text widget that’s been affected by errors.
It’s late right now but Wed. will contact TraceMyIP.org to get a new code. Then I can answer the one Staff member who replied:

Back in the summer I was told:

But again I couldn’t even then when I had new code. I gave up.
Same widget now malfunctioning.
I appreciate all help. Thank You.

Hello there,
It looks like that code is text, to check, have you tried re-adding this as a paragraph block?
This may negate the use of the text block altogether.
