In the Layouts / Add block / 'type something area', I am getting the description help block being left over after the add row are hidden with the display:none.
Any clue why?
It sounds like a CSS/JS bug in the Layouts UI: when the "Add block" row is hidden with display:none, its help/description element isn’t being hidden together.
🔧 Things to try:
Inspect with browser dev tools → see which class/ID the leftover help block has.
Check if the hiding JS only applies to the row, not its child nodes.
It sounds like a small UI rendering or CSS conflict. The leftover description help block likely isn’t being hidden when the “Add block” row is set to display:none. Check if the help block has its own visibility or display rule that isn’t tied to the parent container — it may need a specific CSS selector or JS event to hide it. You can inspect the element in your browser’s dev tools to confirm which class remains visible, then either manually apply display:none to that element or update the JS toggle function to include the help block.
well @herb I cannot believe it, but the webform module was there in modules on the disc, but missing in the listed modules, so I delete the module folder, and downloaded it again.
Then...

@yorkshirepudding, In the end I fixed it by deleting the config/active folder contents, copying the config/staging/ files into config/active, importing the database again and clearing the caches...

It is an admin theme that's based upon the bootstrap 3. Maybe it's missing a piece to act as an admin theme?

Add CSS like:
.add-block-row[style*="display:none"] .help { display: none !important; }If reproducible, this may be a Backdrop core/Layout module issue — worth filing in BackdropCMS issue queue.
