Side Link Modules to Be Disabled, Replaced with New Sidebar System

Dear Web Publishers,

About three weeks ago we launched a new method of working with sidebars using “Widgets” to replace the current “Side Link Modules.” This new system allows the easy adding of text, basic html, images, RSS Feeds, Twitter Feeds, and more to the sidebars of your site in a drag and drop interface.

If your website was using this Sidelink Module system, you have been send a message that your site still uses the old side link module system.

This system will be completely removed in two weeks time on April 5th.  In addition, any sidebars created using the side link module will be removed as well. At this point we would like to request that you migrate your old side link modules to Widget sidebars. A full description of the Widget sidebar system can be found here along with instructions on how to create new sidebars:
