SkyUI Widgets

[chizfoshiz]

I'm trying to put together an extremely basic UI element, literally printing a quest variable on screen but I've hit a weird wall. The literal, exact same question has actually been asked and privately answered in the thread linked below, and this is the same everywhere I find someone stuck with this, the solution is never shared.

 

What am I missing that my widget's script throws the "must extend a base script" SkyUI error? Please save me from asking on the Nexus and having to sift through endless uninformed nonsense. ;-;
