Add widgets compatibility to default and classic themes

[Otto42]

Widget compatibility really should be in the core code. Just my opinion, but it would save a lot of people a lot of trouble.

Even if we don't move the widgets plugin in as a default included plugin, it would be nice if the core themes were widget-friendly, in the hopes that people making themes will get the hint and make their themes widget friendly as well.

Patch included. It's not exactly the same as the mods that come with the widgets plugin, as I felt it was useful to explicitly specify the before & after bits for each theme in the functions.php files instead of hoping that the defaults for the widgets plugin don't change.

Adds widget support to the default and classic themes.

I recall discussing this with Ryan a few weeks ago and the response was that it wasn't necessary. I'm not sure if that's changed, though it might make a nice addition.

+1.

Just talked to Matt, and it's going in. Sweet.

You forgot to add the new functions.php file for the classic theme, unless it's in another changeset or I'm stupid and missing something. ;-)

[rob1n]

Nah, I'm just an idiot :\.

Fix typo in wp-content/themes/classic/functions.php at r5154

[johnbillion]

Just by looking at it, I think there's a typo in /wp-content/themes/classic/functions.php at r5154 on line 2. It should be

if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )

and not the plural register_sidebars. Patch attached.

[rob1n]

My bad.
