Widget areas move/inactive after theme switch

Hi Andrew,

I’m switching a site from Atahualpa to Ultra, and testing the switch. When I switch to Ultra, my footer widget appears in the sidebar, and my sidebar widgets either appear in the footer or are put into inactive widgets. I moved them all in Ultra, but had to switch back to the old theme to fix something else, and when I switched back to Ultra again, they had all been moved again. When I switch back to atahualpa, they are in the right places.

Is there any fix for this? It’s a pain because I have a lot of widgets, and I want to get the site just right before I make the final switch.

Meanwhile, I’m researching it, but just in case you already know… Also, I have another, very similar site I’m going to do the same thing with.

Thanks!
