Can’t edit widgets on phone

9 years ago · Last reply by Alex S 9 years ago

There seems to be no option for me to edit the widgets when using my phone. Either by download wordpress or just using the mobile version neither seems to be able to edit widgets on my phone. As in there’s no option to edit. The widget show in the backend but can’t get into it.

    Hi Dredre3000,

    You should be able to edit widgets as you normally would via the browser. What sort of device are you using? Could you show me what you’re seeing when you try and edit a widget?

    I have the same problem with my galaxy note 5. However I have made 10 other sites with my phone & now I can’t edit the sites. When I go to edit the widgets I’ve selected for my rows the widget just blinks. From the past the edit/delete button should appear.

    Hi Dredre3000,

    Hm, you’re right – although I’m able to edit the widgets, just can’t see the settings very easily. I’m having issues using my phone also. To clarify, were you previously able to edit widgets via your phone without issue?

    Yesir! I have built 10 other sites using Page Builder & the Vantage theme. My Phone is my only method for building sites & editing them. Do you think it could be the WordPress version we are using? I am using wp version 4.6.1.

      Hi Christopher,

      That’s odd. I’ll run a few tests and hopefully be able to come up with a solution.

      To clarify, did this only just start happening or has it been happening for a few versions?
