Widget issue after the updates of WP 5.8

  • Hi Dear All,

    Since WordPress 5.8 update, first, start showing blocks in all Widgets. When I disable Gutenberg everywhere and again I when selecting “Right Sidebar Or any Widgets” as the right sidebar is shown in the Secranshort and when going into “customize” to add any widgets to the sidebar do not show up anything.

    I have deactivated all the plugins and reactivate them one by one but still result is the same.

    Please help me.
    Thank You,
    Best,

  • It is the new addition in WordPress 5.8

    You can use classic widget plugin,until you familiarise yourself with new block widgets.

    Hi @jaykpatel

    Thanks for your kind reply and suggestion and sorry for my late reply.

    I think this error I’m facing because of WP 5.8, some other users also have the same problems. I think WP needs to step in to fix this error.

    I have had the exact same issues on my newly created estore theme woocommerce site. Disabling plugins did not work. After contacting my hosting provider, they went through extensive analysis and informed me that the fix was to revert to WordPress 5.7.2. That fixed the problem but now I’m concerned about future WordPress versions. Something in v5.8 is causing problems with widgets.

    Same issue. The page stays blank and nothing ever comes up. Installed Classig Widgets so I can edit until the change, but I’m very interested in the update working.

    My theme also had an update. When I updated that my Widgets page came back, but there doesn’t appear to be any kind of a change in functionality.
