Description
When renaming the name of a Link Category that is used as well in a Link Widget, the Link Widget stops working.
Step to Reproduce:
- Create a Link Category "Test Start".
- Add 10 Links into the Category "Test Start".
- Go to the Widgets Screen and add a new Link Widget to a sidebar.
- Select that Link-Widget and set it from "All-Links" to the Category "Test Start".
- Visit your Frontpage so proof that the Widget displays.
- Go to the Link Cagegory Editor and quick-edit the "Test Start" Category.
- Rename it to "Test End".
- Save Changes.
- Visit your Frontpage.
=>> The Widget has disappeared.
Expected behavior: Widget displaying with the (renamed) link category.
Change History (4)

tickets.
Can't reproduce on 3.1-RC1-17157. The widget stores only the category ID and uses
wp_list_bookmarks()
for display. Changing category name or slug doesn't seem to have any effect.
