After the update to Wordpress 4.8 my widget's textarea has disappeared and my console says:
[Error] ReferenceError: Can't find variable: wp
Global Code (widgets.php:202)
Looking at the file I can identify this line causing the issue:
wp.textWidgets.init();
Now, I've got installed many plugins but even deactivating all those I can't solve it. Any suggestion?

Reset to default 0Looks like you need to enqueue the editor scripts manually, after 4.8, using wp_enqueue_editor() in your theme/plugin: https://make.wordpress/core/2017/05/20/editor-api-changes-in-4-8/
I actually had to restore manually the Wordpress core and to deactivate a function in my theme which deferred all the javascript.
