Regardless of this, this is not a problem with the plugin. It is not a bug. It will not be "fixed".

Could it be the problem ? thank you for your help Otto ! I made a copy of the DB and of the files.

What do you mean by "made a copy", exactly? If you copied the database, then widgets would indeed get transferred, but widgets created by plugins would be removed on the first load of the new site because the plugins on the new site were not activated yet. If the plugin is inactive then the widget is missing and so WP will remove the widget from the sidebar when it sees that. “Made a copy of the site” is so vague as to be useless.

The PHP Code widget is not special in this respect. NO widgets will be preserved in moving a site from one server to another. It simply doesn't work that way. If you migrate the database as a whole, then yes, widgets will be preserved in such a transfer. However, if you don't activate the plugin on the new site before doing that, then any widgets made by plugins will get removed on the first load of the page, because the code for them isn't active on the new site yet. The PHP Code widget is almost exactly identical to the built in Text widget, with only one minor change to allow PHP Code to work.

I noticed that the php code widgets disappear when I move my website to another server. They're not visible anymore in the widgets section of Wordpress.
