Hi Ptah,

I'm trying to add new sidebars. I copied the code exactly from the Widgets API page into custom-functions.php but I get white-screened with this error:

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function create_widget_area() in /path/to/theme/library/media/custom-functions.php on line 44

I can add new sidebars the 'regular way' with register_sidebars() but WP-Framework's default sidebar now doesn't work. How do I either:

1) Get create_widget_area() to work
OR
2) Remove WP-Framework's default sidebar?

Thanks

Check this thread Adding a second sidebar especially oliver's post. Following his instructions I've could made 3 widgetized sidebars here.
