I use Silverstripe 3.0.3 stable release with the widgetmodule.
I've created several widgets wich function properly when used on a page.
But when I add several widgets to the same page the second widget fails.
I found out the functions are not being called of the second widget or that the objects not exist.

On this forum I also found this forum item:
http://www.silverstripe.org/widgets-2/show/20989
this seem to be the same problem.

Next to puting 2 widgets into one widgetarea, I also tried putting 2 widgetareas (each with one widget).
But that doesn't help.

Is there any solution to this? I really need to be able to show 2 widgets on a page!!

Hope you guys can help.

Any luck with this problem? I'm having it too! I don't know exactly what you mean with the second widget - in my case it's the widget on the bottom of the widget space, that is the first that I add in the CMS. I can change the order, the one in the bottom won't show content.
I'd also be glad to hear some advice - thanks!

Respectfully and politely bumping this thread, since I was twice on the irc channel and nobody could help me out. Thanks!

I had the same problem, this was the solution for me: http://www.silverstripe.org/widgets-2/show/16123#post309314

Let me know if that works for you.

Thanks for the answer!

I changed WidgetHolder.ss from /widgets/templates like this:

<div class="WidgetHolder $ClassName<% if FirstLast %> $FirstLast<% end_if %>">
	<% if Title %><h3>$Title</h3><% end_if %>
	<div id="$ClassName">
        $Content
        </div>
</div>

Unfortunately still not working. I'm not using a blog theme, so that's the only WidgetHolder.ss I've got.

Are you double sure it is calling from that version of WidgetHolder.ss? Try adding in some test text to verify. A lot of widgets also come with their own WidgetHolder.ss file.

You were right, it was using the blog theme although I renamed it like "theme_blogwashere". Weird.

I succesfully added a text which I can see, but the second widget is still not showing content. Here's the code:

<div class="BoxHeader">
        <% if Title %><h7>$Title</h7><% end_if %>
             </div>
<div class="sidebarBox WidgetHolder $ClassName<% if FirstLast %> $FirstLast<% end_if %>">
	<p>This is a Test</p>
        <div id="$ClassName">
        $Content
        </div>
	<div class="clear"><!--  --></div>
</div>
<div class="sidebarBottom"><!-- --></div>

Am I doing something wrong?
Thank you so much for your help!

I had the same problem, my widget would display fine as the first widget but as soon as I moved it to the second or third etc widget on the page it would not display.

My template was not finding the method it was calling, "public function LatestProjects()" in the "class LatestProjectsWidget extends Widget" class.

I was able to fix this by extending widget_controller and putting the function in there.

class LatestProjectsWidget_Controller extends Widget_Controller {
	
	public function LatestProjects() {
		$projects = CaseStudy::get()->sort('Created', 'Desc')->limit($this->Limit);
		return ($projects) ? $projects : false;
	}
}
