Replacing register_sidebar_widget with wp_register_sidebar_widget()

    While debugging a custom theme I am designing (lives online here for now http://shalaco.com/cp) I got this error in debugging mode.

    Notice: register_sidebar_widget is deprecated since version 2.8! Use wp_register_sidebar_widget() instead. in /Users/shalaco/Sites/cp/wp-includes/functions.php  on line 3237

    I tried to use wp_register_sidebar_widget() instead, but the function reference left something to be desired.

    Am I missing something here? A lot of the parameters seem to be left unexplained. Is there another place I can dig around to get more information?

    It’s the same function, just with an ID field in front of it.

    Just add some kind of unique ID as the first parameter.

    Okay, so what if I want to register three sidebar widgets?

    Would this

    if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
	    register_sidebars(3);

    become something like:

    if ( function_exists( 'wp_register_sidebar_widget') )
 				wp_register_sidebar_widget( $id, $name, $output_callback, $options );

    As an aside… am I posting this question in the right forum?
