WordPress – Unavailable Widget Control in Admin Panel – Fix

As you saw from my early post, WordPress – Unavailable Widget Control in Admin Panel. I had a client who had an issue with the widget control panel not displaying correctly. This was a 2 part problem. Some how a widget ended up broken and was causing the page to not completely display all of the widgets nor the sidebars and their content widgets on the right side of the control panel. The second part of the problem came from the screen option on the widget control page. Some how the option was deactivated and this made the page work like the java script was disabled in the browser or just not loading correctly. I do recall clicking on the screen option while the page was broken and nothing changing, I’m not completely sure if this caused the option to be deactivated, but none the less this problem was a headache and is now resolved. So to fix a messed up widget control panels. Disable any widgets that are ran by plugins or any custom widgets that may cause any issue of the page not completely loading. Second check to make sure your screen option is active.
