Yes the only time the widgets will not move is when the buddypress 1.6 is active. When I deactivate the buddypress plugin the widgets are able to move. I had also deactivated all buddypress plugins accept bp 1.6 to see if anything was conflicting and it still didn’t work. This is what I’m seeing when I click on the buddypress in my back office is this: “Don’t worry! We’ve moved the BuddyPress options into more convenient and easier to find locations. You’re seeing this page because you are running a legacy BuddyPress plugin which has not been updated.
Components, Pages, Settings, and Forums, have been moved to Settings > BuddyPress. Profile Fields has been moved into the Users menu.”
