It’s fine they’re not blank, just so we’re sure we’re on the same page with the affected widgets ---

Well, no. I only encountered the issue after the upgrade to 2.23.0, and I haven’t upgraded to a newer version afterwards, so there was literally no way I could run into the same issue again 😅 at least until the next update ---
