 * Thank you for reporting this. But how come you added a bad review before receiving
   a reply here?
 * Can you give me a list of active plugins on your site? If possible, try to deactivate
   them and see if the problem persists.
 * The message you are seeing does not sound like a standard WordPress message, 
   and it is not created by Content Aware Sidebars.

 * I managed to add a sidebar. I added the bad review, becouse I made a sidebar 
   for buddypress profile pages and put there some widgets, what are different from
   the normal sidebar, but on the site I only see the normal sidebar. (I added the
   new sidebar to replace the normal sidebar)

 * I have the same message and it is attached to an advert to pay for widget revisions
   through Pro version. What are widget revisions exactly?

 * Can you send me a screenshot of the settings for your BuddyPress sidebar? You
   can use [https://imgur.com/](https://imgur.com/) to upload and paste here.

 * Do you mean that you’re seing the message “Sorry, but you don’t have the permissions,
   to connect to this page” when clicking on “Widget Revisions”?
 * Widget Revisions is a feature that makes automatic backups of your sidebar widgets
   everytime you change them. So e.g. if you accidentally delete a widget, you can
   restore it with no hassle.
