Hi @BukhariSaeed, thanks for taking the time to report this!
I am sorry for the problems you are facing. Can you please be more specific about these problems, so a developer can investigate?
Please see how to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_report_a_bug for steps. Thanks!

I am also facing the same problem. Today when I open hiwikiversity. I got the message in Recent Changes from edit Review improvement. Then I have seen that all the gadgets are automatically disabled. When I want to enable the gadget. The Enable not happening.

And Edit Review improvement message coming every time. When I visit Recent Changes

@BukhariSaeed Sorry, I don't know. I think this is enabled default on all wiki.

I think all wikis are facing same problem (per jayprakash).

That's not the case. Some wiki are apparently experiencing it, not all.

Please see T177478: Unable to change user settings, which apparently the source of the problem.

We are facing many problems on urwiki and no gadget is working. Please do the correction.

I've just left a message on your wiki about it.

So far, investigations are proving that filters are not the cause but the problem is bigger (and tracked on T177478).

If possible make it high priority, becouse user facing big problem. Do not able to maintain wiki bcouse twincle etc. Do not work. Hindi wiki facing big problem related with vandalism. User not able to fight to vadal without using twincle.
Hotcat etc. Some basic gedget. Its not working so user facing big problem to edit wikipedia.
Also recent changes related pop up box coming every visit of recent changes page.
User tired to face it.
Its need very high priority to solve the problem.

@YmKavishwar, the highest priority is set for the parent task (T177478) which has to be solved before fixing that one. If the parent task is solved, you will be able to save your preferences and get the tools back. We know how difficult it can be for you and we do all we can to solve it quickly.
