Are you getting the error, “The widget settings in widget with id <b>AdSense1</b> is not valid. An internal error occurred. Please try again.” on Blogger when you try to save your theme? You’re in the right place.
Users are facing different types of errors after Legacy Blogger is updated to New Blogger. One of the frequently occurred error is, “The widget settings in widget with id <b>AdSense1</b> is not valid. An internal error occurred. Please try again“.
This error does not allow you to save your Blogger theme when you modify and try to save. Mostly this error comes in Emporio Blogger Theme.
What is the Cause of Error?
It is clear from the error description that your AdSense widgets in your theme are causing the error. The error comes on those blogs where Google AdSense ads are enabled.
For some reasons, because of these Google AdSense widgets Blogger does not allow you to save your theme. This error is bit confusing as well because at times despite showing this error it saves your changes, but at times it does not save your theme at all.
There are 2 cases (1) If you make a CSS change or something like that it will still show you the error, but will save your changes (2) When you add a conditional tag or insert some code in the body of the widget, this error does not allow you to save the changes.
How to Get Rid of the Error?
There is a simple solution to this error:
- Remove the all Google AdSense widgets from your Blogger Layout one-by-one. I have shown below, How to remove Google AdSense widgets.
- Modify your theme, means do whatever changes you want in your theme or the code that you want to add.
- Save your theme. You won’t get this error.
Once you are done with the changes in your theme completely, comeback to your Blogger Layout and add the Google AdSense widgets again.
Remember that removing your Google Adsense widget from your Blogger Layout does not disconnects you from Google AdSense Program. You can add or remove Google AdSense widgets as many times as you want.

<b:widget id='AdSense1' locked='false' title='' type='AdSense' visible='true'>The widget code ends with this tag:
</b:widget>- Now select the whole code from <b:widget id=’AdSense’…………. to </b:widget>, as I have shown below with the arrows.
