  • That’s because the sidebar has a number of widgets hardcoded into it. If you add even one widget, they should all disappear.

    What theme are you using?

    I’m having the same problem! …Duplicate widgets that don’t go away even if I show 0 using the dashboard (yes, I have tried adding at least one — just gives me a duplicate!). I am using the Sandbox theme…can anyone help with this? I really love Sandbox!

    It appears to be a theme issue – no probs with Default or Kubrick, but Sandbox and Thematic both do it. I even deleted my entire WP installation (database and all) and reinstalled fresh…I’m just starting out and want to get everything working before I start blogging!

    I’m using:

    Firefox 3.0.6
    Wordpress 2.7.1 and
    Sandbox 1.6,

    all of which are supposed to be the latest versions… I thought Sandbox was supposed to be widget-ready! I haven’t altered it in any way, can someone help with this?
