You’re right it does look a little better.
Previously I think there may have been some inconsistencies with my child theme files, but I since updated them to match the latest version of the theme’s files as I mentioned in my previous comment.
Now I am able to get the widgets in the sidebar as I want them, but the header (image, site title, site tagline) and footer (WP, theme dev. credits) don’t show up where they belong.
However, this problem is no longer specific to the child theme – the site looks the same regardless of whether I have the parent or the child theme active.

Thanks for the tip – I did revert to the parent theme earlier, but gave it a shot again. It seemed to bring back the sidebar content to some extent this time – maybe I was looking at a cached version before?? However it’s still missing the header image, site title, site tagline, and some footer content.

I copied over the updated parent theme files to my child theme where applicable. The site’s child theme edits 3 files and adds a new template file for a category page. No CSS edits are made in style.css.

• header.php – added <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"> just before <?php wp_head(); ?>. Parent and child files are otherwise exactly the same.
• footer.php – edited the credits in the site-info section from:

  <div class="site-info">
  			<?php do_action( 'writr_credits' ); ?>
  			<div><a href="https://www.ads-software.com/" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'A Semantic Personal Publishing Platform', 'writr' ); ?>" rel="generator"><?php printf( __( 'Proudly powered by %s', 'writr' ), 'WordPress' ); ?></a></div>
  			<div><?php printf( __( 'Theme: %1$s by %2$s.', 'writr' ), 'Writr', '<a href="https://wordpress.com/themes/" rel="designer">WordPress.com</a>' ); ?></div>
  		</div><!-- .site-info -->

  to

  <div class="site-info">
  			<?php do_action( 'writr_credits' ); ?>
  			<div><a href="https://www.ads-software.com/" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'A Semantic Personal Publishing Platform', 'writr' ); ?>" rel="generator"><?php printf( __( 'Proudly powered by %s', 'writr' ), 'WordPress' ); ?></a></div>
  			<div><?php printf( __( 'Theme: %1$s by %2$s.', 'writr' ), 'Writr', '<a href="https://wordpress.com/themes/" rel="designer">WordPress.com</a>' ); ?></div>
  				<div>Maintained by <a href="https://surpriseazwebservices.com/">Surprise AZ Web Services</a></div>
  		</div><!-- .site-info -->

• content.php – Changed the excerpt only on search pages line from
  <?php if ( is_search() ) : // Only display Excerpts for Search ?>
  to
  <?php if ( is_search() || is_front_page() ) : // Only display Excerpts for Search and home ?>

Whether I’m using the child theme or parent theme, the site displays the same now (other than the excerpts vs full content, and the favicon).

The Accessibility mode and adding/changing widgets suggestions that @zippy80 suggested didn’t work either. I’m going to try going back to an older version of the theme and see if that fixes the issue for the time being. If it helps, I’ll take a look to see what changed between the two versions to hopefully iron this out.

I also just found this post, which suggested a theme update to fix the issue. I downloaded the update, but it didn’t help.
I will try the other suggestions though and report back.

I’m using Writr on a client’s site and just noticed the same issue. The issue happened after updating to the current version of the theme. I tried the usual troubleshooting steps (disable all plugins, etc.) and nothing fixed the issue.
On Firefox, it appears as if the sidebar extends out the entire width of the sidebar area all the way over to the right edge of the content for the header image, site title, and tagline. Everything else seems to be hidden behind the actual post content.
On Chrome, the sidebar just appears to have no content. Viewing the page source shows the content is actually there, but it just isn’t visible when viewing the site.

Thanks Beka – I had the same problem and your fix got it working again.

Try deleting your core WordPress files from your site including the wp-admin, wp-includes folders (but NOT the wp-content folder or it’s contents), as well as the other core WP files.
Download a fresh copy of WP and upload the fresh files to your site, which will replace the files you just deleted.
If that doesn’t work, try deactivating your plugins and reactivate them one by one until the problem comes back. The last plugin you activated before the problem came back is probably the cause of the issue.
Finally, if all else fails, try activating the default WP theme to see if that causes the issue to go away.

This plugin should list all shortcodes whether they come from a plugin, a theme, or are added in your theme’s functions.php.

This plugin doesn’t seem to need a shortcode. The first line of the plugin’s description says:

This plugin will automatically resize your WordPress auto-embeds

Just add the https://youtu.be/xxxxx-xxxxx or whatever to your post, and it will automatically resize as needed.

This is another feature I’m working on adding to the plugin. Another version should be out shortly, and will likely have all the features that have been requested so far.

OK, I see what you’re talking about.
Would you be able to achieve the same thing by using the select menu, and use options like:

Monday (Plan A & B)
Tuesday (Plan C)
Wednesday (Plan C & D)
Thursday (Plan D)
Friday (Plan E)
Saturday (Plan B)
Sunday (Plan F)

or:

Plan A – Monday
Plan B – Monday
Plan B – Saturday
Plan C – Tuesday
Plan C – Wednesday
Plan D – Wednesday
Plan D – Thursday
Plan E – Friday
Plan F – Sunday

Obviously I’m making up the plan/date associations, but this may be a way to make your situation work rather than having someone choose specific dates like Monday June 9th.

Thank you for your feedback. This is another feature I am looking to add in a future version.

Thanks for the feedback. I’m glad you’re finding the plugin to be useful.

I only included the three input types, which I thought would be the most commonly used for now. As I get more feedback like this from people, I may include other input types.

I do not believe the Date Picker field in particular is included as one of the input types for custom fields in WooCommerce. If the demand is strong enough for it though, I’ll look into getting it added.

I don’t think this plugin will allow you to exclude specific categories from the category widget. You can exclude the category widget altogether from the “companies” category page, by using !is_category('companies').

It’s strange because the problem is intermittent. Sometimes a page will load fine, and other times I get the redirect error. After posting the initial post, I started noticing it even after the plugin was disabled. I’m trying to use the plugin to force any traffic to the site to http, and only use https for the wp-admin.
Right now the only exception I have set is /wp-admin
