Wordpress Customizer Hides my Sections / Controls inside of is_admin()

Question

Good evening,

I'm having a problem with the WordPress customizer. When the page loads it shows my controls, but after a fraction of a second an in-line style of display: none is added to them, resulting in them being hidden.

Can anyone give me some ideas as to what to look for? I've removed by 'active-callback' argument to make it simpler.

All ideas welcomed - its driving me crazy!

EDIT: Plenty more digging and it appears that it happens when the add_action is contained within an if(is_admin()):. Why would this be?

Cheers

Jamie

Answer 1

My guess would be that is_admin() is conditional check specific to wp-admin and because the customizer doesn't actual have capability of displaying in wp-admin it would hide the controls.
