Description

When I switch between worlds, then go back to the world I'd started from, the article widgets vanish and I have to reenable them, then put them back in the order I'd had them in.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Enable widgets and custom order them.
2. Switch to new world.
3. Switch back to original world.
4. Close world manager modal to view dashboard.
5. See widgets have disabled themselves and lost their order.

Hey Ratha, Thanks for reporting! Can you send me a screenrecording or at least some screenshots showing this happening? Thanks!

I've also encountered this problem but can't replicate it.   I have the same 6 widgets on all my dashboards, with "Recent Notes" being #4. Sometimes upon switching to a different World "Recent Notes" will have turned itself off on that World's dashboard, causing widgets 5 and 6 to shift position. Other customizations remained except for that one widget being turned off.   I switch Worlds frequently, but have only had this happen maybe three times since the March 6 update. I've tried intentionally breaking it -- switching between my Worlds, to collaborator Worlds, rearranging one dashboard but not another, etc. -- to no avail. I haven't been able to replicate any unintended changes.

Hey Those2Nerds, thanks for the extra information. We'll keep an eye on it.

This is happening again. The Continue Working widget keeps reactivating itself, no matter how many times I deactivate it.

Hello I am having the same problem. The featured and community article widgets keep appearing on my dashboard every time I reload the page no matter how many times I turn them off. I have tried disabling community features as a whole on my account. That doesn't work either. Please advise.
