 * I manage a few websites using WordPress and this morning the side bars on one
   of them was gone and replaced with default theme text. When I checked in the 
   dashboard it says my theme is not widget-aware. I use the headway theme on my
   sites and all the others are fine and don’t show this error. I’m hesitant to 
   modify the functions.php when it is no different than on my other sites without
   this problem. I tried disabling all my plug-ins and the message still remains.
 * I would appreciate any advice on where to go from here.

 * Since this is a premium theme with its own functionalities and support system,
   I recommend you contact the theme developer for assistance – they are best placed
