 * I posted over top of someone else’s post earlier (my bad). In my debug..log I
   am seeing this:
 * `PHP Deprecated: Function Elementor\Widgets_Manager::register_widget_type is **
   deprecated** since version 3.5.0! Use register instead.`
 * register_widget_type is deprecating since Elementor plugin version 3.5.0
 * [https://developers.elementor.com/v3-5-planned-deprecations/](https://developers.elementor.com/v3-5-planned-deprecations/)
 * I ran a grep and found 2 instances of the function call in yith wishlist plugin.
 * `woocommerce-wishlist/includes/class-yith-wcwl-shortcode.php:182: \Elementor\
   Plugin::instance()->widgets_manager->register_widget_type( new YITH_WCWL_Elementor_Add_To_Wishlist());
   ./
   yith-woocommerce-wishlist/includes/class-yith-wcwl-shortcode.php:183: \Elementor\
   Plugin::instance()->widgets_manager->register_widget_type( new YITH_WCWL_Elementor_Wishlist());
