How do I activate a widget?
-
I understand the widget paradox. I move a widget over to the primary or secondary widget area. Then I open it, make changes/name it/etc. and save it. They never go active/live on my blog.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

aaaah, what a relief. Now it seems to be working…..I’ve thrown some test widgets up there using a different computer altogether and it’s working. A big thank you! I would not have thought about that. Now to stop testing and time to start widgetizing!
Thanks for being part of the community!
