Widget Problem!
Jun 29 2010, 11:37 AM EDT | Post edited: Jun 29 2010, 11:37 AM EDT
On easy edit, when I click on Widgets I can't find the option for Other Widgets! Did you get rid of it or is it just not there anymore? Do you find this valuable?

It's still there. It should be the last one on the list, right next the the HeyZap Games widget.
EDIT:
The "other widget" option does not appear in the widget dialog if you are editing your profile page. I believe it was removed for this case due to the problem with spammers adding links that automatically redirect users that visit their profile. Do you find this valuable?

Here is an easy to use workaround for adding "Other Widgets" to your profile.

Not only did the removal of the other widget from the profile easy edit stop spammers but there is no way to add widgets that use attachments residing on other Wetpaint Wikis to ones profiles. Wahhhhh....so now my profiles are as naked as a Thanksgiving turkey the day after Thanksgiving. Do you find this valuable?
