Wordpress 2.8.3 Can’t Move Widget Bug (Don’t Upgrade Yet)

Update: It is fixed now. The problem arises when you don’t disable plugins while updating, some plugins can interfere during upgrade. Also don’t forget to remove wp-admin and wp-includes before updating to latest version.

This is a notice to all webmasters out there. If you are thinking of upgrading to Wordpress 2.8.3, then you should wait until Wordpress releases a fix. The biggest problem you are going to face is Widgets.

You won’t be able to move the Widgets around and most people are having such problems, including me. As you can see on the right sidebar, all widgets have vanished. I can’t move the new widgets, nor restore the one that were lost.
