Footer widgets aren't showing?

There's something going on with my footer widgets. I have 3 widgets set up and they used to display just fine. Then I updated GP, did some general site tidying, removed some HTML from a plugin I'd deactivated and no longer use, and now only one of my footer widgets will show. Any idea what's going on?
Updated to add:
In the Widgets section, they're still there. I have global settings to display 3 widgets in the footer.
Hi there,
What types of widgets are in the other two footer widgets and were they inserted by other plugins?
Check the footer widgets meta box as well: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/footer-widgets/#change-the-number-of-footer-widgets-on-individual-pages-posts
Any caching plugins?
No caching plugins, and the other footer widgets are 1. text with a link and 2. the built-in "recent blog posts" widget from Wordpress.
The meta box is set to global, which is set to 3. When I manually set it to 3 on a page, I still only see one. I'm totally confused.
Hmm I can see them now: https://s2.postimg.org/xvq7wsmc9/2017-06-08_0856.png
I figured it out! I accidentally deleted the </script> for the script I wanted to keep.
I'm definitely not a coder... but I'm a pretty good clue-hunting problem solver (eventually, hahaha)
Thanks!
Awesome. Glad you caught it :)
