I’m just setting up a new WordPress site and have installed WordPress 4.2 and the Enfold 3.1.3 theme.
I’m getting all these errors at the top of each page like this:

Manually set the id to “sidebar-1” to silence this notice and keep existing sidebar content. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

Not sure why these are appearing or how to get rid of them?
Yes Im getting the same errors in the same circumstances – no obvious way of getting intot he admin so I guess the theme needs an urgent fix followed by reinstalling by FTP.
Presumably that will kill the custom code though?
Hi!
I am not getting any issues on my WP 4.2 Enfold 3.1.3 installation. Can you please try re-updating the theme via FTP – kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/updating-your-theme-files/
If you have modified theme files, they will be overwritten, so please make sure to have a backup. Changes you made in Enfold theme options and your content are safe.Regards,
YigitYes, I am getting the same error I’m not keen to re-download theme and rebuild, suggestion on other sites is below, though I dont think my site is in debug mode
If you do not set the id argument value, you will get E_USER_NOTICE messages in debug mode, starting with version 4.2.
So if you did not have id in your functions.php while using register_sidebar() function, and you updated to wp 4.2, you’ll get this notice (in debug mode).
Just add a counter $i, and when going through your sidebars, increase i by 1 ($i++) and add
‘id’ => ‘sidebar-‘.$i,
in your register_sidebar() function.
