 * Hi, this plugin looks great and solves a problem I’ve been thinking about for
   quite a while.
    Just going through the installation and I’m stuck where it says
   to define widget ID’s. My current theme (Vithy, from WPTitans) doesn’t seem to
   have the register_sidebar function. I’ve looked through every php file I can 
   find and come up with nothing. Any advice?
 * TIA

 * Hello!
 * Vithy – is a premium theme, isn’t it?
    Why not to ask theme support?

 * Will get in touch with them. Thanks.
    Just wanted to check I hadn’t missed an
   obvious location for the sidebar function. Cheers

 * The most common location in functions.php file.
    In complex themes it may be 
   located very very deep… So better to ask theme developers
