Does this have a compatibility issue with Gutenberg?

Hi harmonyous,

Thanks for asking.

I am aware that the option might be missing when using widgets outside the Sidebar settings. I have postponed looking into a solution until I get the feeling that the Gutenberg version is ready for production.

Best regards,
Thomas

Hi @harmonyous,

I just tested this with the latest version of the Gutenberg plugin. The Fixed Widget option was there for widgets in the block-editor that replaced the previous widget page.

There was indeed a bug concerning saving the option, which I identified and fixed. I indent to release that version in the next week.

Please let me know if I am still missing something, though.

Thomas

Hello Thomas,

I’m looking forward to the latest version. ??

Hi @harmonyous,

the update is out.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Hello Thomas,

This is indeed working but only on old widgets and jetpack widgets. There’s still no fixed widget option for gutenberg blocks. Below is a sample screenshot.

The widget above is a jetpack widget and it has a fixed widget check box. The facebook image on the other hand is something I put using the “image block” of gutenberg. As you can see, there’s no option for fixed widget. By the way, I also tried it on other gutenberg widgets.

I’m not sure why the link did not show from my previous comment.

Ah, now I got you and can confirm that it doesn’t work with non-widgets.

That’s a completely different issue then, but I will try to look into it for a future update.

Thanks for making me aware of it!

Thomas
