 * Hi,
 * I receive the following error whether I use my genesis child theme or twenty 
   eleven.
 * Notice: add_custom_background is deprecated since version 3.4! Use add_theme_support(‘
   custom-background’, $args ) instead. in /var/www/dev/wp-includes/functions.php
   on line 2638
 * I’d like to ensure that this is resolved or won’t be too big of a problem prior
   to launching the new genesis site.
 * I am running 3.4.2 and have disabled all plugins.

 * Upgrade Twenty Eleven. With regard to your genesis child theme, you need to post
   on [http://www.studiopress.com/support](http://www.studiopress.com/support) We
   don’t support commercial themes here.

 * Upgrading Twenty Eleven resolved the error.
 * Thanks – I posted here since I was receiving the error on both themes. I will
   contact their support regarding their theme.
