    I’m having incredibly strange behavior around my widget areas. I have about 20 widget areas between standard WordPress, Geneses, and custom (using Dynamik child theme). I'm not sure if this is a Genesis issue but perhaps there's something corrupt in a theme file causing it.

    A few days ago I went to my site and all of my widget areas were gone and listed under Inactive Widgets.

    I moved them back and strange things continue.

    Sometimes they all vanish again and I have to add back.

    Sometimes I add them to widget areas but when I refresh the page either they are in different widget areas or haven’t moved at all.

    I haven’t been able to figure out a specific pattern.

    Sounds like a plugin conflict.
