Adding Buttons as Child to Widget from Array

I was hoping someone could give me some insight as to what is going wrong here. The array is of type widget references. What’s confusing me is that if I get the buttons themselves from the create widget buttons creation widget (mouthful), it works correctly and the buttons appear.

If I try to do it this way with the array it doesn’t. I’d love to hear of alternatives but at the same time I’d also like to figure out why this isn’t working

Hey thank you for the response. I will try what you said but would you be able to go into a little more detail about what you mean in regards to setting them? The widget that contains the buttons is being created (the image is out of date, sorry, I switched it to on construct instead of on clicked), should that be fine?
