I am trying to use Plotly to visualize on the shiny dashboard. But only the plot background shows up, without the plot and I end up with the following warning:
Warning in origRenderFunc() :
I have tried every tip and trick mentioned so far in StackOverflow and GitHub but to no avail.

If you can list what these are, it will save other users from suggesting things you have already tried.

I am using the current version of plotly and shiny. Whenever I am trying to crea… te a plot, I am getting a warning:
```
Ignoring explicitly provided widget ID "fcfd29930da9"; Shiny doesn't use them
```
I have tested it with and without using plotly, and the warning seems to be associated with plotly.
Shiny and plotly versions:
```
plotly_4.6.0.9000
shiny_1.0.3

When generating the forest plot, get a new error:
```r
> hetviz()
Listening… on http://127.0.0.1:6353
Warning in origRenderFunc() :
Ignoring explicitly provided widget ID "95a4fa9b92a"; Shiny doesn't use them
```
Shiny was [updated a few days ago](https://github.com/rstudio/shiny/releases) and there's [at least one person](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/43608750/filter-select-and-crosstalk-not-functioning-with-reactive-data) reporting the same error.
these are the solutions I came across, please help if there are any others...

This is "normal" behavior for plotly within shiny at the moment.
Your second link (https://github.com/ropensci/plotly/issues/985 ) suggests you should check your code for other possible errors.
If it's possible, share the relevant parts of the app code and maybe someone can help.

And if anyone is interested in why, you can follow these threads:

Warning message:

You can run the following reproducible example:
```{r simpleModel, echo = FALSE}
library(DiagrammeR)
simpleModel <- 'digraph simpleQueue {
graph[label = "Simple"]
a
b
c
a -> b ;
b -> c ;
{rank = same; a, b, c}
}'
grViz(simpleModel, height = 200)
```
```{r echo=FALSE, message=FALSE, warning=FALSE}
set.seed(562)
x <- rweibull(100, shape = .7, scale = 10)

Why you need to be careful about modifying global states when writing packages:

Two recent-ish examples around random number generation that show how careful you need to be when changing global state in your package.
ggplot2's use of a random number to display a message upon startup (but only in interactive sessions)
* A decent place to start in the Twitter conversation: https://twitter.com/jimhester_/status/954349179530248193
* PR changing the behaviour: https://github.com/tidyverse/ggplot2/pull/2409
htmlwidgets touching the seed
* Reports showed up on dplyr, even though that had nothing to with the root problem: https://github.com/tidyverse/dplyr/issues/2124.
* Ditto rmarkdown https://github.com/rstudio/rmarkdown/issues/980
* Actual resolution: https://github.com/ramnathv/htmlwidgets/pull/265
Paraphrasing discussion elsewhere: "don't touch things that don't belong to you and if you have to, you need to be super careful to wipe all your sticky fingerprints off everything"
For posterity, if you see this warning, you can update plotly to fix it: install.packages("plotly")
