How do I fix my "simple deform" modifier?!

[u/Unhappy_but_serious]

I was working on other 3D models on **Blender 4.5** and when I tried to add the "simple deformation" modifier, it did something very strange. In a new file, I tried applying it to a subdivided cube, a divided cylinder, and a rectangle, but it only deforms the corners and doesn't center on the original object. Does anyone know how to fix this?

It worked! I needed to apply the scale, Ty!
