Other widgets work fine (from other plugins or textual widgets).
Plugins (widgets that are used):
– List Category posts
– Table of Contents plus
– Page scroll to ID

Thank you for the support and help.
For the time being I will remove the widget and just use the option in functions.php (to put it at the end of posts).

I know now the exact moment when it’s reverting back to default: when I hit “Edit” either for a post or a page. I make no changes to the post or page, so it is not the “Update” button, but just “Edit”.

Any idea?

Sorry, the last comment is actually not valid.

I left the “Site language” to English with the option Tags in the widget area and this afternoon I checked and it was again changed to “All taxonomies”.

So it has nothing to do with the Site language.

I found out something that maybe could be of use for your help.

In WP when I go to Settings > General and change the “Site language” to English (United States) and change the widget setting to tags, the setting stays this way.

When I go back to “Site language” and choose Serbian again, after some time the widget setting changes automatically to “all taxonomies”.

The shortcode and the function in functions.php (for all single posts) works fine now.
The problem was with “Ознаке”, the suggestion to put “post_tag” helped.
Also with the Shortcode there was a problem with the language that was displayed as used for “title”, I changed that and everything was fine.

The problem I have with the widget persists.

Will be back with more info.

Nothing to do with tags specifically.

Tried the same thing with “categories” in the widget and it returned “all taxonomies” after a while.

No filters.

Tried with “post_tag” in shortcode but same result.

I guess I will try your suggestion with deactivating plugins. Just to see first what the developer/admin will say.

Thanks for your efforts.

I don’t have similar widgets with default settings, but I will try with changing the default number of related posts to 2 instead of 5.

Can’t say how much time, it happens the same day.

I tried the shortcode in one post and there I have also a “situation”. This is the shortcode:

[related_posts_by_tax taxonomies=”Ознаке” title=”Повезани текстови” posts_per_page=”5″]

Everything works fine except that the title is “Related posts” (default) and not what I wrote in the shortcode.

Well, I just tried the shortcode on another post that does not have any tags (I am trying this plugin on my beta site) and it shows related posts. So I went to the widget settings and it has changed to “all taxonomies”.

Change again to “tags” and back to the last post and refresh. No related posts in the sidebar but the shortcode shows still 5 related posts…

I guess you are right, looks like the settings are not seen in the database. I will talk to the site developer and database administrator.
