 * Deprecated methods in use caused issue on 3.8. I had to update the wpfp-widgets.
   php file to use the following.
 *     ```
       wp_register_sidebar_widget('wpfp_widget_view','Most Favorited Posts', 'wpfp_widget_view');
           wp_register_widget_control('wpfp_widget_control', 'Most Favorited Posts', 'wpfp_widget_control' );
       ```
   
 * and
 *     ```
       wp_register_sidebar_widget('wpfp_favourites_widget','User\'s Favorites', 'wpfp_users_favorites_widget_view');
           wp_register_widget_control('wpfp_favourites_control','User\'s Favorites', 'wpfp_users_favorites_widget_control' );
       ```
