    After upgrading to Genesis 3.1.1 I couldn't add any widgets to my custom sidebars.
    So I went back to Genesis 3.1.0 and all is fine again.

    What theme were you using? The site is not functioning properly now.

    Share your code in here. I just got new widgets to work on my Lifestyle Pro demo.

    Hi, this morning I found out that indeed the site was broken. I restored a backup from 4 days ago (9-2-19).
    Now the site is working again.
    I updated again to Genesis 3.1.2, but got the same issue.
    What code do you want to have?

    One question: How can I rollback to Genesis 3.1.0 without restoring the whole site? Is there a download-option for that version?

    It seems the issue is gone now. At the moment all themes and wordpress are the latest versions.
    After I checked the issue on my test-site, I only found 1 difference at the activated plugins: Gutenberg wasn't active on test-site.
    So I deactivated it on my public site.
    Now it is working fine.
    But I don't think Gutenberg is the cause of the issue. It is more likely that because of the big amount of plugins there is a certain tendency to get some trouble sometimes...
