Custom Widget Not Saving
Quick and easy one here. I'm working on a custom note widget. Had it working with two text fields, but when I tried to change the second text field to a textarea, it stopped saving correctly. The title saves fine, but the textarea does not.
Any help is appreciated!

Mike McAlister says:Jesus, I'm an idiot! I saw what I did wrong within seconds of posting this. That works though (obviously).
Thanks Kailey!
