Question

Why are some widgets not showing up on my pages?

Answer

Some of Big Medium's features—including certain widgets—require server-side includes (SSIs) to display properly. If your announcements, tips or certain link widgets are not making it into your pages, it probably indicates that your server doesn't have SSIs turned on.
