  Hi, when I was testing the widgets I added all of them to my blog, Drag and drop. Then I tried to remove some of them from the sidebar, I Droped them out of the sidebar but each time I drop one it simultaneously goes back to the sidebar, how can I remove them permanently please.

  Thank you in advance.

  Hi, click the “edit” link on the widget, go to the bottom of the widget after it expands and click “remove.”

  Thank you both for your help, but as it seems to me that I am using another version of wordpress, older one. I see what you are talking about in the new version but in my installed one it looks different.

  my site is:

  anybody can help me please, I still have the problem

  You’re self hosted so you’ll need to go to http://wordpress.org/support for help.

  Hi, I had the same problem and just figured out how to remove the widgets!!!!! :D

  Click the Edit button
  then click beside the word “Title” so that your cursor is in that Title field
  then press Tab on your keyboard
  keep pressing the Tab key until you get to the remove button
