Widgets working on site but cannot access or modify in appearance anymore

  • My site shows 6 widgets in use on the dashboard and on the actual website. However I can no longer modify them in the appearance area, the 6 working widgets don’t appear nor can I drag new widgets. I have deactivated all plug-ins and still the same?

    Please advise, much appreciated in advance!

  • I’ll second this problem… I upgraded to WP 3.5 about 3 weeks ago, but hadn’t tried to edit any widgets until now. I’m using a child theme of TwentyEleven.

    Clicking on a sidebar down-arrow does not open it; trying to drag a widget just highlights text. Same behavior on two different systems using two different browswers (Chrome & Firefox) and as different WP users.

    Like goodlifeguide notes, the site itself appears fine. I can create/edit posts and pages. I just can’t modify any widgets. FWIW the site is Rivendell School.

    Thanks for the help.

    @gkbenjo – please start your own thread – it’s rude to hijack someone else’s and it makes it harder for people to help you and she. (And you are not using the same theme as she is – so you do not have the identical issue.)

    Both of you will need to go through all the troubleshooting steps in this thread:

    @goodlifeguide, remove the jquery library included in your header.php and include following code into your functions.php 

    if (!is_admin()) add_action("wp_enqueue_scripts", "my_jquery_enqueue", 11);
function my_jquery_enqueue() {
   wp_deregister_script('jquery');
   wp_register_script('jquery', "http" . ($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] == 443 ? "s" : "") . "://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js", false, null);
   wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}

    Tell me if this doesn’t work..

    Sorry. In any case, it was a plugin I had missed that was causing the problem (Widget Logic Visual, FWIW).
