Strangely, I'm seeing many more WidgetListPoster elements for movies than I'm actually seeing in the GUI:
Elements referencing inprogress_movies, recent_unwatched_movies, unwatched_movies, random_movies XSPs.

But only random_movies is seen in the GUI...

locate your addons folder, in there you will find skin.estuary there are instructions for making an edit ready copy here: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=371717

when you are ready to edit, open the file xml/Home.xml and locate sections as pasted below, there are many of them because there are many rows but each row is only a few lines each

you can add rows, delete rows, customize row contents and all sorts of things - i have done this many times over to make it to my liking and again when my liking changes


Here is a copied section for the "Random Movies" row on the movies section home page:

xml:
                        <include content="WidgetListPoster" condition="Library.HasContent(movies)">

                            <param name="content_path" value="special://skin/playlists/random_movies.xsp"/>

                            <param name="widget_header" value="$LOCALIZE[31006]"/>

                            <param name="widget_target" value="videos"/>

                            <param name="list_id" value="5400"/>

                        </include>

and that is all that defines that 1 single row, note places where it shows LOCALIZE are using translated text values from the respective language/resource* folder containing strings.po

also here is the wiki to learn more about skinning - https://kodi.wiki/view/Skinning

Yes, I've followed that and provided my state of processing according to those instructions.

I thought you might know about possible reasons why this could still not be working in all these special cases. If I'm missing any additional setting, maybe.

As I said, all "WidgetListPoster" elements declared, but only one of them showing.

Recommend a fresh install?

I know I've been installing lots of different skins on top of my installation, so maybe the settings got messed up?
I remember Embruary manipulated some stuff like deactivating my mouse pointer, possibly more than that?
