 * It looks like many of your errors come from widgets. That’s not too easy to fix.
   The way to go (as far as I know), is just open the source of your blog in a browser
   and look for the lines where the errors are. Usually you can quickly tell where
   the error is from, since a few lines up it says “left sidebar”, “search widget”
   or something. The next thing is to locate the file you need to edit.
    Not an 
   easy job, but once you know what to look for, it is “doable”. Undoubtely people
   who know more PHP and CSS than myself will work a lot faster.

 * Start by deactivating your plugins. Then, just follow the advice above by looking
   around in the theme files and your source code.
