Hi all,
My php skills are seeming to be lacking for this...

I'm doing a site that is including a hack to the Sidebars widget code in functions.php. More precisely, after
// Sidebars:

// Register additional extra widget areas:
<next 15 lines>

I want to move that section to the child functions.php so that it survives ATA updating.

I can't figure out the proper unhooking from the "original" functions.php and inserting the same (but modified) section of code into the child functions.php

Please hit me with a clue stick someone!

Thanks!
Ken

Since each new update will include a new (maybe updated) copy of function.php, your change will have to be added each time there is an update.

What are you trying to accomplish, maybe there is another way.

If you use the Atahualpa 'new widget areas', they will survive theme updates
