Can’t Manage Widgets; Buttons Don’t Work in 2.7-hemorrhage

  • On the widgets admin page (/wp-admin/widgets.php) the only buttons that are clickable are ‘Search Widgets’ and ‘Save’ for Samsarin PHP Widgets. The rest are unclickable and I am unable to add, remove, edit, and rearrange widgets. I tried deleting my widgets.php file and uploading the widgets.php from 2.6.1 and then from the svn repository for 2.7 and that did nothing.

  • Javescript doesn’t work on my 2.7 installation. That means widget management is difficult/impossible. I want it to sleek and slide like 2.6, but it seems the code isn’t rhythming just yet! ??
    great thouhg, 2.7 is nice!

    for me the upgrade from 2.3 to 2.7 was easy and error free – with the exception of 1 javascript I am running…still no answers or direction yet…is there any ‘meeting place for wordpress / javascript issues yet?

    I had upgraded to 2.7.1 on a test site, everything was wonderful. I love the layout of the new interface. So I ugraded my live site, using the same theme, same plugins, same widgets, same host, same upgrade script…. must be something different somewhere. I lost ALL widget control, can’t add, remove, save, tried to reset the widgets and then lost them all… finally did a roll back to 2.6. Widgets and widget controls are back on the live site. Same problem no matter what browser i try, dumped the cache, refreshed, rebooted, logged in, logged out.

    Why does it work on one site and not the other?

    I’m having the same problem, I can no longer “edit” my widgets…does this mean I need to go back to an older wp version?
    I deleted all my plugins but that didn’t help.
    Is this an issue with 2.7.1?

    the widget reset plugin linked there fixed my similar snag. make sure you grab all the text etc from text widgets and any other settings first, though. i didn’t encounter the error that rparker points out in the thread, so can’t speak to that.

    Theme Misty – Having the same problem. I’ve also been unable to click on text widgets to edit them. Just trying to build my blog and sorry to see this problem is common – will try suggestions and hope one of them works.
