All Dashboard widgets disappear except for a warning indicating a critical error has occurred. There does not seem to be any support available. Too bad, as it would have been a handy add on. Note that it does not seem to crash the site, the only indication something is wrong is the loss of all content on the WordPress Dashboard. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ad47beed6ffff3f4d85024ccc0022d734ec233286ea191c29aa857adbb75f114? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Thanks for the support!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/thanks-for-the-support-10/)󠁿 [betomarinho](https://profiles.wordpress.org/betomarinho/) September 20, 2022 2 replies I recently had a problem with a plugin I purchased from Codexpert, but when I contacted tech support, I was promptly answered.
