Custom widget in the theme

Hi,

we are building a theme and we would like to add a custom widget using your widget bundle framework…

I followed this tutorial: https://siteorigin.com/docs/widgets-bundle/getting-started/creating-a-widget/

And at the part where the widget shows up in the “Plugins -> SiteOrigin widgets”, I can’t activate the widget.

When I click on “Activate”, the widget seems activate, but if i reload the page the widget is deactivated.

Are there some other steps that need to be done to make the custom widget work inside a theme?

I also tried with the active filter: https://siteorigin.com/docs/widgets-bundle/advanced-concepts/filters/active-widgets/, but no luck…

We are using a wordpress network setup and the development is local, but I sticked to the tutorial above…

Am I missing something?

Thanks and take care!
