I have the same problem with a Woo Theme called “Irresistible”. I have uploaded WordPress 4x and re-loaded the theme countless times but only have temporary success in getting the “SIDEBAR PANEL” to appear in the wp widget admin interface (wp-admin/widgets.php).

I can see the widgets (rss, custom menu, etc.) that I want to drag to a SIDEBAR but there is NO SIDEBAR to drag them to. Originally the theme has TWO SIDEBARS (top sidebar, and sidebar) and they work long enough TWICE for me to add Twitter feeds but twice now the feeds disappear and I go to the admin panel and the sidebars are no longer there. I finished my new site a week ago but I’ve been trying to do work-arounds with amateur knowledge of CSS to no avail…

HERE IS THE FUNCTIONS.php page:

<?php

/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
/* Start WooThemes Functions - Please refrain from editing this section */
/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/

// Set path to WooFramework and theme specific functions
$functions_path = TEMPLATEPATH . '/functions/';
$includes_path = TEMPLATEPATH . '/includes/';

// WooFramework
require_once ($functions_path . 'admin-init.php');            // Framework Init

// Theme specific functionality
require_once ($includes_path . 'theme-options.php');         // Options panel settings and custom settings
require_once ($includes_path . 'theme-functions.php');         // Custom theme functions
//require_once ($includes_path . 'theme-plugins.php');        // Theme specific plugins integrated in a theme
//require_once ($includes_path . 'theme-actions.php');        // Theme actions & user defined hooks
require_once ($includes_path . 'theme-comments.php');         // Custom comments/pingback loop
require_once ($includes_path . 'theme-js.php');                // Load javascript in wp_head
require_once ($includes_path . 'sidebar-init.php');            // Initialize widgetized areas
require_once ($includes_path . 'theme-widgets.php');        // Theme widgets

/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
/* End WooThemes Functions - You can add custom functions below */
/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/

and here is the SIDEBAR.php:

<?php

// Register widgetized areas

function the_widgets_init() {
    if ( !function_exists('register_sidebars') )
        return;

        register_sidebars(1,array('name' => 'Sidebar','before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="">','after_widget' => '</div></div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3><div class="list3 box1">'));
        register_sidebars(1,array('name' => 'Sidebar Top','before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="">','after_widget' => '</div></div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3><div class="list3 box1">'));

}

add_action( 'init', 'the_widgets_init' );

?>

ALSO, the footer menu appears but does not work! This also starts off fine and then eventually just is visible and doesn’t actually navigate…
