 Our church website stm.org.uk is WordPress hosted by IONOS.

 I have just tried the first update to the Content Sidebar since we were
 upgraded to WordPress 5.8.

 I attempted to add the 'Breakfast Church' item using the new block editor,
 but I got a message:
 There was an error. Invalid parameter(s): requests.

 I ended up installing the 'classic widget editor' plugin and managed to
 create the item by adding two block widgets at the beginning, copying the
 block HTML from a similar item.

 I did it this way, rather than setting up a text widget, to get a more
 consistent appearance. Incidentally, the 'our vicar' image widget has not
 been converted to a block and its appearance is not consistent with the
 others.

 There seems to be no good reason for the error message.
