    hi folks, Im completely new to WordPress and struggling with the widget screen.

    All blog videos I have watched have shown a simple layout for the widget screen where the user can just click on and widget they prefer to install on their site.

    This isn’t the case for me and was wondering if anybody could help me out. I could provide screen shots of this if embody could tell me how.

    kind regards

    WP

    I am guessing, you’re looking for a classic layout on a widget page that is not available in new WordPress versions and you might be looking at old videos.

    Install the classic widget plugin, to get the old layout.

    hi vijay

    I’ve downloaded ‘classic widgets’ in the ‘plug-in’ search bar actually on WordPress and its worked.
