My site is here: http://www.honoluluonthecheap.com. When I go to "widgets," "Links" is listed (under both left and right sidebar) but it isn't available to me. There is no option to "add."

Can someone tell me how to fix this? I'd appreciate your help very much.

Are you trying to add the Links widget to a sidebar, or to add Links to the widgets? To add links to the widget you'd have to go to Site Admin -> Links -> Add new

If you're trying to add the Links widget to a sidebar. It does not seem to be added to any sidebar yet. The Links widget should still be listed on the left side, under "Available widgets", when you got to Site Admin -> Appearance -> Widgets

Thank you so much for replying.

I'm trying to do the latter. That's the problem, though. I go to Site Admin -> Appearance-> Widgets, and the Links widget shows up in the list on the left side (with "Your blogroll" as its description), but it doesn't say "Add." There's no way to select it to use in a sidebar. I don't understand why.

After reading your reply, I also tried just now to add a "new link" to the widgets, but that didn't change anything either.

I do think your site is set up amazingly well, and I understand how it works for the most part - but I cannot figure out why this part isn't working. Did I inadvertently do something that messed up my Links widget? Can you tell what I can do to fix it?

Thank you for helping if you can. I'm pulling out big chunks of my hair.

What sidebars do you have in the dropdown select menu on the right side under "Current Widgets"? Should be only "Left sidebar" and "Right sidebar". You might have another sidebar still sitting there, from an earlier theme or a plugin, and the Links widget might be in that other sidebar. If so, you'd need to move it out from there first.

I doublechecked under "Current Widgets," but it does only show "left sidebar" and "right sidebar."

I did have a different theme originally, before replacing it with yours -- but I don't see any extra sidebars still sitting there.

I can't tell you how much I appreciate your great and very user-friendly theme, and all this support. You are amazing.

Does the Links widget come back when you switch to the "Default" theme? Also, try deactivating plugins to see if that helps. Are you missing any other widgets?
