What worked for me, was adding the widgets via the simulator in the resources window. Then in the Today view pane, I removed the widgets one by one. Then repaired and verified disk permissions. Do a restart and you should see the widgets in the edit pane of the Today view. Add the widgets and even after a restart they should still be there, at least for me they were still there.
Steps:
1.) Add widgets via the simulator in NotificationCenter.Framework
2.) Remove them from the Today view main pain
3.) Repair and Verify Disk Permissions (not sure if this is really necessary)
4.) Restart and everything should still be working (hopefully)
Hope they come up with a fix for this soon. No comment on the Social Widget LOL
