WordPress Widget area showing blank page. A Fix to WordPress Widget not loading or Loading.
In the most recent new WordPress updates, many WordPress users have been faced with the problem of the WordPress Widget not working. Sometimes the WordPress Widget is not loading properly.
So If you're wondering why your WordPress Widget is not working, then this video is to help you Fix the WordPress Widget problem. This problem has been rampant with the New WordPress 6.8 Update version.

And it will also fix any Widget not loading problem.

There is still a problem with this. Getting the classic widgets back on its own via the classic widgets plugin or or disabling Gutenberg plugin (which achieves the same thing) is only fixing half the problem (for me anyway and my theme - and no doubt others have this problem). That problem is the widgets do not work, ie. they appear (image widgets and links to internal content) but the widgets do not work when clicking the sidebar custom html widgets or image widgets - they just produce a black screen. I believe this is something to do with javascript for widgets being unsupported in newer wordpress versions or with certain themes made for previous wordpress versions. Would be good if you have a fix for this thanks.

[@VinceComfort]

Hello B 23, I've worked with a couple of newer themes and I've not run into this scenario. What theme are you using, so I can do a test run. (I sure will do a video about my findings). Otherwise, thanks for watching.

Awesome! Could you please suggest to me why the new edited FB link not showing? When I have edited the old URL of Facebook it's not showing

[@VinceComfort]

Could probably be a cache problem. Purge cache and check if it works.

Please i keep on receiving this problem when trying to edit with widget in customizer. Your theme has 8 widget areas, but this particular page doesn’t display them. You can navigate to other pages on your site while using the Customizer to view and edit the widgets displayed on those pages.

Dear sir when i going on widgets there open just blank page How i fix it recommend plugins and themes i am begginer

[@VinceComfort]

What theme are you using?

[@gemini022]

How do we get pages to revert back to the old layout

[@VinceComfort]

Hello @Gemini22, let me know about the problem. what changed the layout?

[@ericjohnson8416]

Please help. My widget section wasn’t showing until I installed classic widget. Now if I make any settings. It won’t save.

[@ericjohnson8416]

I mean if I did any changes and click on save button. Nothing happens Most I get is the buffering circles

[@VinceComfort]

@@ericjohnson8416 If you have a caching plugin, try to purge, then reload the widget page and see if you can save. Another reason could be a plugin conflict but that is highly unlikely. (Let me know if that works)

[@ericjohnson8416]

@@VinceComfort I don’t have a caching plugin. But I’ll download one ASAP. And by the way. I’m using Biagiotti theme

[@VinceComfort]

@@ericjohnson8416 Then it probably is a theme or plugin conflict. Here are 3 things you can try. 1- Deactivate Biagiotti and activate one of the defualt themes, then refresh the widgets page and try to save. If it doesn't work, 2- Deactivate all plugins, then start activating one at a time while checking if you can save after activating each plugin. That should help you figure out which plugin is the real problem.
