    guys,

    sorry for the same stupid question, but i get mad and blocked.

    i can’t find the correct id for “Ultimate Tag Cloud widget”.

    i think i found ids, but when i configure it it says error “id don’t exist”.

    i do this in page (i used chrome analyse – inspector to find id’s in code):
    [do_widget id=utcw-3d0ah36]
    1
    [do_widget id=utcw-3d0ah36]
    2
    [do_widget id=utcw-4o9ll30]
    3
    [do_widget id=utcw-10dm67l]

    ————-

    my source page is => https://dyi.li/4Ip

    – can you help me tp find id’s please?
    – maybe my problem that this widget is already used in y left navigation column and i want to re-add it on the page?

    p.s.
    i also tried ?do_widget_debug=1 but it don’t display anything additional. (maybe because my user name is not “administrator”, but the role is “asministrator”

    Please see instructions on home page (step7) and screenshot-5.

    The wordpress “widget ids” look like “sortofname-n” where n is a number. so in your case you’d be doing something like:

    [do_widget id=utcw-2]

    [do_widget id=utcw-3]

    Looks like you were using css id’s not wordpress widget ids.

    i think i do all correctly, just can’t open debug for some reason, but i think source code can allow to visualise it no?

    can you please on my page and say me if i put correct ids?
    i am adding this

    [do_widget id=utcw-10dm67l]
    for some reason i have error message,
    test pags is here => https://dyi.li/4OJ

    P.S. i also tried this just to try, but no luck
    [do_widget id=utcw-2]

    yurone,

    I don’t know what to tell you, I have given you all the info above. Do you have someone else around who can watch over your shoulder and read the instructions with you? sometimes that helps one see what one is missing before.

    Be logged in as AN administrator. It doesn’t matter what the username is, it’s the role that is important. I assume “asministrator” was a typo? as that certainly will not work.

    I cannot do it because I am NOT a logged in administrator.

    in your page put

    [do_widget JUNK] update, view.

    Click on the “try debug” link that appears when you view the page.

    OR

    put ?do_widget_debug=1 in the url of the page and refresh.
    Either should kick off the debug mode.

    If id=utcw-2 does not work, then “utcw-2” is NOT an id of a widget in the shortcodes sidebar – maybe in the inactive sidebar or some other sidebar.

    I doubt very much that id=utcw-10dm67 will work as wordpress widget id’s do NOT look like that. They always look like
    pluginstring-1 or
    pluginstring-2 or
    pluginstring-3 or
    pluginstring-4 or
    pluginstring-5 …. etc

    In your case I actually went as far as loading the ultimate tag cloud widget plugin you said you were using so I could work out what it’s plugin string was. It is using utcw , SO those widget ids should be something like:
    utcw-1 or
    utcw-2 or
    utcw-3 or
    utcw-4 or
    utcw-5 …. etc

    The number depends how many times you have tried to use that widget. It always starts off at 1 and goes up in ones.
