 * The Classic Widgets plugin simply disables the Gutenberg extension features in
   the WordPress core. This allows the classic widgets included in the core to be
   used again. As far as I know, there are no plans to make any changes to these
   in Core Trac, where WordPress developers publicly discuss any changes.
 * However, your concern should be directed more towards the plugins that are not
   compatible with the classic widgets. They would need to add support for this 
   on their end. It is best to contact their support team about this.

 * hi, thanks for your quick reply. But my question wasn’t answered fully : **Will
   there be any new updates for this plugin soon?** It hasn’t been updated for over
   a year. The owners from plugins that are incompatible have already been contacted.

 * I guess that in connection with the major WordPress release 6.9 (on next tuesday),
   the compatibility flag on the plugin will also be raised again. But as I said,
   this is just a guess. You are welcome to submit your request here as a ticket
   so that developers are made aware of it: [https://github.com/WordPress/classic-widgets/issues](https://github.com/WordPress/classic-widgets/issues)

 * Right, thanks for replaying here!
 * Just bumped the “Tested up to” setting for WordPress 6.9. The plugin seems to
   be working as expected.
