I second that. Same problem here. I’ve made a custom template for the website’s front page, and the widgets do not seem fully functional. By that, I mean that the “Members” widget appears, but says “No one has signed up yet!”, and I have my avatar with the sign out button, but my nickname is not printed. The strange thing is that all this stuff works perfectly on the pages made with the default template. I am afraid I might have missed some important tags.
