ALPS widgets could not be added to more than one area of the page

[daniel-eesti]

ALPS widgets like "ALPS - Text with Link" and "ALPS - Author Box" (and maybe others) could not be added to more than one area of the page (top, bottom, or sidebar). For instance, if we add the "ALPS - Text with Link" widget to the Page Top or Page bottom, it disappears from Page Sidebar if it was added there previously.

ALPSv3 does not take advantage of all standard widget areas. I think what you are trying to do would be an enhancement.

This does appear to be a big. In the past, that functionality was working.

We need to get a list of widgets that COM wants to use so we can enhance those widgets. Once we get the list, we can prioritize the enhancement.

Functionality beyond the page and post sidebars has not been tested by me. It is hard to say when this happened.

I suggest we need to get a list of widgets that COM wants to use so we can make sure the widgets. Once we get the list, we can prioritize the fixes as an enhancement.

This issue is still present. I'm able to add ALPS widgets to my test environmentsin different areas of the page but if I try and have the same widget in two places on a page one disappears only showing one on the frontend. We still don't have a COMs widget priority list that I can tell.

It is working for me on https://fresh.alps.adventist.io
