  I have the Careta theme. I’m adding a text widget to the footer. The widget adds but never shows the area where I can type the text in. Any suggestions.

  Hi there,

  The site ameliafishbites.com appears to be a self-hosted WordPress (also called “.org”) site hosted on Siteground Web Hosting, and not a site hosted on our WordPress.com service.

  You can confirm here: https://gwhois.org/ameliafishbites.com+dns

  To clarify, we are not the only providers of WordPress sites, and Siteground also happens to offer WordPress sites, but they use a different version of the platform than what we use here. Because of this we are not able to help with your issue as it lies outside of our system. See http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ for more info.

  You can find support for your self-hosted WordPress site here: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  You may also wish to contact your theme’s support team for more assistance, as this kind of thing is usually related to an issue with your theme, and not a general WordPress issue: https://wordpress.org/support/theme/careta/

  Please also note that the Careta theme has not seen an update since 2014, which is a bad sign. I might consider a different theme.

  Hope that points you in the right direction!
