: Right Widgets Not Showng
: dihweb March 27, 2013, 08:25:32 AM
On this past Monday, the layout of my site using the Compassion theme changed without me changing any of the widget positions.  The main section area where my blog is located and the right widget (Upcoming Events) changed positions without me doing anything to the widget positions.  My site is located at the following URL: http://www.dfisherconsulting.com/ .  The section "Upcoming Events" should be displayed to the right.  All of the interior pages are not displaying correctly either.  Even the theme demo site  is showing the widget layout "off" for that theme (http://www.shape5.com/demo/index.php?wp/compassion).  Any idea as to what might have happened or what I need to do?

Thanks!

Have you updated any plugins or updated WP recently?  The latest version of Widget Context seems to have a bug that prevents WP from detecting when a sidebar is empty on the current page.

I have submitted a bug report on the support forum for the plugin, so hopefully there will be a solution soon.  I am also working on coming up with my own alternative method for detection.

UPDATE: This is the support thread I started for Widget Context. (http://wordpress.org/support/topic/081-returning-incorrect-true-for-is_active_sidebar-and)  I've already gotten a response with replacement code for the plugin that seems to fix the problem, but it's not in the official release yet.  I suggest checking that thread regularly until it is marked as "resolved"; at that point, the fix should be implemented in the full release.
