Kaptinlin Themes Support

Hello KaptinLin,

I have the subfooter widget area type set to widget area. When set to widget area i get a new sidebar in the page where one can fill the sidebar with widgets "called sub footer widget area". Lets call that page where one can fill all the sidebars with widgets: "the widget fill page" of the theme

I also have a custom sidebar called contactpagesidebar.

Now in "the widget fill page" the contactpagesidebar is below the "sub footer widget area". It has widgets in it.

Now I goto the footer settings and turn the Sub Footer Widget Area Type to HTML. I loose the "sub footer widget area" in "the widgets fill page" (which is logical) and the contactpagesidebar goes up one level.

However now it already has happened. The former content of the sub footer widget area is now in the contactpagesidebar and the original content of the contactpagesidebar (all the widgets) are gone.

Setting the Sub Footer Widget Area Type back to widget area does not bring back the original content of the contactpagesidebar. They are gone for good !!!

Where is this bug coming from? Wordpress or striking?

This happened now twice before i could pinpoint what was causing it but i can tell you it is very annoying.

In reverse. If you do not have the footer widget area on and you have created a own sidebar then the content (the widgets) of the sidebars below the "called sub footer widget area" start shifting one sidebar up when the subfooter widget area is turned on. This cannot be happening.....it is a bug.

If you do not have any own sidebars created there is no problem..... But if you do and i have many of them all the content changes from sidebar to sidebar and the last one looses all the content

Steps
0) Be sure the subfooter widget area type is set to html
1) Create a custom Sidebar. Make sure you have only one custom sidebar !!! (just to keep it simple).
2) Fill this custom sidebar with widgets
3) Now Set the subfooter widget area type set to widget area
4) Now check the content of your Custom side bar. The widgets are now in the subfooter widget area
5) Move the widgets from the subfooter widget area to custom sidebar to get it right again.
6) Now Set the subfooter widget area type set to html area again.
7) Now check your custom sidebar...... everything is gone. all widgets are lost.


Looking forward to your reply.
