 * I drop in a text module but all that happens is that the left sidebar goes blank.
   When I click on the edit button in the module the sidebar remains blank. Any 
   idea as to what is going on.

   is not working. Over the widget delete and duplicate buttons are changing cursor

   edit the text:-( Please could anyone help, THX

 * Hi,
 * 1.Please Deactivate all of your plugins.
    If this solves the problem, gradually
   activate your plugins one by one, until you spot the problematic plugin.
 * 2.If you have a caching plugin, make sure you deactivate it, or even better –
   purge the cache.
 * 3.Change your WordPress theme to WordPress TwentySixteen (or other default WordPress
   theme).
