    The TablePress plugin is a very useful tool designed for WordPress sites like mine. Every website is different, so achieving the desired user experience does require a bit of patience and trial and error to see how the table appears when it is displayed with various settings. Following the steps needed to insert a graphic image inside a table window took a few tries before I got the hang of it. Unlike many webmasters, I am not a proficient CSS programmer, so I resolved myself to accept the default font size and style that the plugin displays in each table box.

    WP RSS Aggregator caused my export problem as well. I deactivated it and the export function worked fine.

    When I try to run the export function, I receive the same error message as @cecnaadmin. I’ll check to see which one of my plugins is causing the conflict.

    My site is not live so I cannot provide a URL address. I am testing it out using MAMP on my Mac.

    It turns out I had an earlier version of WordPress installed. After I installed 4.9.4, the Widgets page began to function normally, although all of my previously configured widgets got deleted and I have to recreate them from my backup.

    I’m running WordPress 4.9.4 and cannot toggle Accessibility Mode using the Screen Options menu, or make any edit changes to any of my active widgets. I narrowed the problem to a javascript error, but do not know how to rewrite the code to fix it.

    The offending javascript code is the text that follows the second exclamation mark on line 2481 of load-scripts.php:

    !f[“wp-auth-check”] && e.hasClass(“hidden”) ? b() : f[“wp-auth-check”] && !e.hasClass(“hidden”) && c())

    The problematic code generates an Uncaught TypeError that impacts line 269 of load-scripts.php

    I run a modified version of this same site using MAMP and the same version of WordPress, which doesn’t exhibit the disabled Widgets feature. Disabling plugins hasn’t fixed the issue.

    Can someone assist me in fixing the problem? Thanks for your help.

    I stumbled upon a rather strange solution to my widget problem. I logged into the WP admin page using one of the Hide My Proxy websites and was finally able to get access to the widgets and make the edit changes I wanted. Going in normally never worked for me. I tried both wifi and wired and used different browsers, operating systems, as well as my cell phone without success. What led me to the proxy idea was after I spent time emailing the theme’s lead developer, who had no problem making mock changes to my widgets after I gave him temporary admin privileges. Something about my network address was hindering my access to this (and only this) menu screen. Anyway, the problem is resolved, for which I’m grateful.

    I believe I’ve narrowed the problem down to an issue with JavaScript on my site. None of the Widgets buttons activate to bring up a drop down menu when I click on them, unlike those in the Menu section that work fine. I’ve logged onto my admin page using the macOS as well as Windows 7 and I encounter the same response. Perhaps reinstalling the theme will fix the problem?

    Here’s another error message that I see when access console using F12:

    I think I may have found the source (or at least a clue) of the problem. I looked at the file structure of my site and noticed that my theme contains a folder called custom-sidebars. Within custom-sidebars I found another folder that is nested one level below that has the same name (custom-sidebars). The nested folder also contains an identically named folder called tpl.

    While I recently obtained an SSL cert and switched to https, the widgets access problem affected my site beforehand, not afterward. Below is the url to my home page:

    This might very well be a clue (I didn’t include all the script errors, which were numerous).

    I’ve drastically cut back on the number of active plugins to 20. What’s strange is that I also cannot change the theme. I can select something like Twenty Fifteen but nothing changes. I strongly suspect that I cannot change the theme because my site uses a special LeadPages plugin to display a customized LeadPage as my home page. Nevertheless, I was able to add and edit widgets months ago with the same LeadPage plugin installed.
