 * I recently duplicated my wordpress website , copied the files from one folder
   to the other , created a new database and import the .sql backup , edited the
   config file and when I run it : Surprise! The widget is dissapeared from newly
   estabilished site , but all the rest is ok! I checked the theme settings ( Mandigo)
   and seems that the widget setting was unchecked ( they all were unchecked ) .
   I checked it and all was working fine .
    My question is if you have any idea 
   why those checkboxes were unchecked if I copied across all file and database?!
 * Thanks in advance!
