Cannot Edit Widgets that appear on front page

  • Having an issues on my site with front page widgets. It appears that after some updates on the theme and WP itself there’s some new issues. The theme is Responsive, and there are several widgets that still appear on my page, but I have no way to edit them in the widgets panel as they do not appear anymore.

    Only a few of the original widgets are still able to edit, but it also says that “this theme has 6 other widget areas but this particular page doesn’t display them here”
    The three listed widgets Home 1 2 and 3 are the bottom 3 boxes, but I have no way to edit the Hello My name is part or change the photo or anything. Any ideas on how to access this?

  • Hi there,

    The site joshbanno.com appears to be a self-hosted WordPress (also called “.org”) site hosted on DreamHost Web Hosting, and not a site hosted on our WordPress.com service.

    You can confirm here: https://gwhois.org/joshbanno.com+dns

    To clarify, we are not the only providers of WordPress sites, and DreamHost also happens to offer WordPress sites, but they use a different version of the platform than what we use here. Because of this we are not able to help with your issue as it lies outside of our system. See http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ for more info.

    You can find support for your self-hosted WordPress site here: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

    You may also wish to contact your host’s support team for more assistance.

    Hope that points you in the right direction!

  • Thank you! I’ll follow up on the other forums! Much appreciated!
