The only Widget that Gantry loads is the "Gantry 5 Particle" widget.
Is that a screenshot of your "Inactive Widgets"?
Every time you use a Widget Position Particle in a Theme's Outline, you create a new WordPress Widget Position with the same name and the Key you specified in the particle. If you then use the Widget position in WordPress... add some Widgets to it... and then later delete the Widget Position Particle from whatever Outline it was on, those related WordPress Widgets will get moved to the Inactive Widgets area - Last Edit: 3 months 2 weeks ago by Matt.

Hello,
Sorry, i forgot to tell you, this is not Gantry 5 but Gantry 4 theme "Hardon"...
And no this is not a screenshot of my inactive widgets but widgets screen when you go to appereance/widgets.
Please let me know if you need any other info.
Thank you very much for your time and help.
Kind regards

- Gantry 4 is legacy and is not fully compatible with the current version of WordPress, nor is it compatible with PHP 8. You can try installing the "Classic Widgets" and "Classic Editor" and ensure you're on PHP 7.4 and see if that helps.

Hello,
It is on PHP 7.4 and yes i have installed Classic Widgets" and "Classic Editor"
I also have other websites with the same version and there everything is working just fine.
Even the much older themes are using all the same and widgets are working just fine.
That is really strange, isn't it? - Web development & design, online marketing and search engine optimization services Optimizacija sajta za pretrazivace - Optimizacija sajta

- I guess I don't fully understand your issue... are you saying there's no Widget Positions where you can assign Widgets? Try disabling all plugins except Gantry

Hm, widgets have already been assigned and are showing on front page as well as on default widges.
And i can't see any widget anywhere, on front page, default widgets or 3-4 other widget override.
Do you think that i should maybe revert Wordpress to earlier version or to try as you have suggested to try disabling all plugins except Gantry?
Do you want me to send you login details in a secure tab so you can take a look?
Just asking, please let me know your opinion what do you think that would be the best option here.
Thanks a lot for your help!

I still don't fully understand your issue... The widget content is outputting but not accessible on the backend? You can check the documentation here on how Widget Positions are loaded... the theme should be loading 8-12 widget positions:
docs.gantry.org/gantry4/customize/adding-module-positions
Ultimately Gantry 4 is no longer supported as it only works with PHP 7.4 and there have been various reports of different functionality breaking in WordPress 6+ and as such it is effectively retired. If you have working examples on other sites try and compare to see what's different on this site vs your other sites.
Yes, definitely try disabling all plugins except Gantry - SEARCH the forum first! These boards are rich in knowledge and vast in topics. This includes searching just the 'Solved' forums, using Google, and using ChatGPT
