Widget doesn't save custom template

    Hi
    I’ve created a custom template — named it my_widget.php in the theme/flexible-post-widget folder.

    When I edit the widget I see my theme in the Template Filename drop-down. But if I update the post – the new widget doesn’t get used. And if I then go back to edit the widget, I see the ‘default’ template filename selected.

    It seems like the widget isn’t remembering my custom template.

    Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

    Thanks,

    Howdy,

    That’s odd. What’d the file name for your template?

    Also, I’m not sure what you mean by “update the post”. Are you working in a page-builder plugin or using the Appearance > Widgets section in WordPress? FPW isn’t compatible with most (maybe all) page builders as they don’t include the necessary JavaScript that is available on the main Widgets page.
