I am trying to: see the block for the "Primary Sidebar Widget Area" in my Genesis child theme.
I expected to see: the block representing the PSWA in my Layouts child layout.
Instead, I got: the block is not visible. However, the widget is active and on the front page.
When I first installed the Toolset Genesis Integration plugin, the block was visible on the generated Home/Blog page. I removed the block because I didn't need it at first. Later, when I decided I wanted to use it after all, I placed it. It disappeared as soon as I hit "Save." Yet the block is visible on my Home page and functional.
If you look at the screencap I've attached, you will see that the block has been placed twice; once on a line with other elements, once by itself. In both instances, the block is invisible, yet the other blocks/empty areas are visible.
I tried regenerating the Home/Blog page on my local machine version of the site, but that didn't work. The block was not visible on the newly generated page.
I also incorporated the code block found on https://toolset.com/forums/topic/layouts-genesis-integration-plugin-makes-genesis-sidebar-disappear/ in my functions.php file, but no joy.
If you need a Duplicate of the site, I can send it to you.
Dear harry,
I can see two rows with same name "Row 4" in your screenshot, why do you need two different rows with same row name?
And I can not duplicate same problem in a fresh wordpress installation + Genesis 2.2.6 + Layouts + Toolset Genesis Integration, see screenshot 54.JPG, I tried to remove/add the "Primary Sidebar" Widget Area cell few times, it does display in the layout correctly.
I suggest you try this:
1) deactivate other plugins and switch to Genesis parent theme, and test again
2) create a complete new layout with the "Primary Sidebar" Widget Area cell, and replace the problem layout, and test again.
