PSA: The classic WP Popular Posts widget has reached End-of-Life The classic WP Popular Posts widget doesn’t work very well with the block-based Widgets editor introduced with WordPress 5.8. This new Widgets editor expects WordPress blocks instead of regular WordPress widgets. If you’re using the classic WP Popular Posts widget please follow the Migration Guide to replace it with the WP Popular Posts block, the [wpp] shortcode, or the WP Popular Posts widget for Elementor. Bjorn from wplearninglab.com was kind enough to create a video explaining how to use the new block for all of you visual learners: Support the Project!
