    I am using a sidebar for my posts. In the sidebar I have had 3 fixed widgets. When I changed the content of one of them the widget appeared at the last position of the footer area even though I didn’t change the location selector. The attempt to set the location selector as wanted didn’t work
    My homepage uses

    • the old editor (not Gutenberg)
    • WeaverXtreme Theme
    • Page Builder by Siteorigin
    • Fixed Widget Plugin

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I think you’re running into a bug that appeared in WordPress 6.9. There’s a ticket for this with the developers: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/64380

    I know of two possible solutions until a fix in WordPress is available:

    • Don’t use Accessibility Mode when using classic widgets.
    • Use the widget management in the Customizer.
