[Plugin: About Me widget] Image and copy doesn't save

This is realted to the way the ajax binding on the widgets.php page works. It’s unfortunate that this happens, but a typical step that works around this is to refresh the widgets admin page after having added the about me widget to the sidebar, and before having added copy. After the refresh you should be able to edit copy and save it successfully.

I am having the same problem, but with a twist. The widget was working, then I upgraded WP to 3.1.3, and the widget disappeared. When I tried to add it back, the “About Me” header bar appears, but none of my text does. When I try to edit the widget and save it, I get an error message “Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again.” And “Please try again” takes me back to the Widget admin panel.

I’ve tried the steps you gave above, and I’ve logged out of WP completely and retried them. Any other suggestions?

I really love this widget because it’s so easy to use – just hope I can get it running again!
