  When I click on Appearance and then Widgets in my dashboard, it takes me to the widgets area, but all the widgets are open and I have to scroll down for almost 2 minutes to get to the primary sidebar area. I can’t effectively drag and drop my widgets quickly – it takes forever. My widgets screen does not look anything like it looks in the WordPress tutorials and walkthroughs. Not sure how to fix! Please help!

  Hiya Sue, It sounds as if you’re viewing the widgets page in Accessibility Mode. Take a look at this link, a try turning that mode off:

  Widgets

  Once it’s off, exit the page, then re-enter Appearance → Widgets, and let me know how that worked for you.

  Thanks much!

  Hi Robyn – I just updated my internet browser today and the problem seems to have corrected itself! The widget page looks great and like it’s supposed to. Thanks for getting back to me.
