    Once upon a time I could moved widgets around simply by dragging and dropping … how times have changed. At present I have the comment widget too low on my sidebar and wish to move it higher … perhaps you could assist.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there!

    You can click My Site → Appearance → Customize → Widgets → Sidebar.

    Once the Sidebar widgets have loaded (it can take some time), scroll down and click on the comments widget. You’ll see the block toolbar appear at the top.

    There are two ways you can move the widget higher. You can still drag-and-drop using the six dots, but it might be a little difficult to move it up by dragging, given the number of widgets you have. So instead, an easier option would be to use the up arrow from the up-down arrow. Clicking the up arrow a few times will move it higher up

    Here’s a screenshot showing both the up-down arrows and the six dots I’m referring to.

    When the widget is in your desired position, click Save Changes, and you should be all set.

    Let me know if you have more questions. :)
