Comment:
Hi all,
I have just taken a look at this ticket now and after reviewing the issue,
it's important to consider the significant evolution of widget management
within WordPress Core. Since the release of WordPress 5.8, the classic
widget system has been superseded by the block-based widget editor. This
change aligns widgets with the modern block editor infrastructure and is a
key step in the transition towards Full Site Editing (FSE).
The core development team's focus is now firmly on the block editor and
FSE components. As such, enhancements or non-critical bug fixes for the
legacy classic widget system are no longer being prioritized.
Given that the functionality described in this ticket relates to a legacy
system, I am closing this ticket as wontfix. This allows development
efforts to remain focused on the current and future direction of
WordPress. However, please feel free to reopen this ticket if you wish to
discuss this further. 😃
