    Hi Bianqui,

    By fixed do you mean you have a specific issue with a widget or that you want to lock the widget settings to specific values? If the former, can you please elaborate on the specific issue you’re facing?

    Hi Bianqui,

    I’d like to help you with doing this, but unfortunately, this is beyond the scope of the support we’re able to offer on our free forums. There is a fair amount of custom work involved. If you’re familiar with CSS, you can do this by using position: sticky;

    We do offer this level of support to our premium users, so if you’d like to upgrade to SiteOrigin Premium, then I can help you over email support.

    If you’d prefer not to upgrade to SiteOrigin Premium, then you can hire a WordPress developer from Codeable. They’ll charge you an hourly rate for any work done.

    Are sure there is no way to put a code, to disable the sortable function?
    Ej: $( “.so-widget.ui-draggable.ui-sortable-handle” ).sortable(“disable”);
    return false;
    Something like that to disable?

    Hi Bianqui,

    To clarify, are you looking to do this on the frontend or the backend?
    My previous reply is under the assumption of the former. If you’re however looking for the latter, the code you mentioned is what you would need to do but there’s no specific way to know what widget is what until you open the widget itself. In other words, there’s no direct way to make a specific widget as read only at this time.

    Hi Bianqui,

    Unfortunately, this isn’t currently possible. I’ve marked this thread as a feature request. We often look through these threads to get ideas for what to add in our future updates. Hopefully, we’ll be able to add this in a future update.
