  Strange problem that I’ve never had before. I can’t add a new text widget to my sidebar in Sandbox. I’ve been doing this the same way for ages, so wondered if anyone else is having the same problem. Unfortunately, support is closed until the 19th. Ugh.

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

  If you mean you can’t add it by dragging it into place, try clicking Screen Options and activating the “Accessibility Mode”.

  I can drag it into place, make changes to it, save the changes, etc, but when I view my page, the text widget isn’t there. When I go back to the page to add widgets, the text widget doesn’t appear under either of my sidebars (I have two).

  I tried the accessibility setting you recommended and it worked. I still say this is a bug because I’ve never had to do that before. Thanks for your help!!

  The accessibility mode fixed this same issue for myself also. Thanks for the tip.
