    Need some help here. A project that was done in 2010(?) used the Delicious theme and several functions in the theme seem to be deprecated now genesis_home() used on home.php. Unfortunately, this project has to be archived and available as it was designed. So, I need to determine how to go about updating the theme so that the site still works and looks like it did in 2010. Would it be possible to download a version 2.x.x Genesis, rename it, and have Delicious use the old Genesis as is parent? That might be the quickest fix if it would work.

    The home.php starts out like:

    <?php get_header(); ?>
    <?php genesis_home(); ?>
    
    	<div id="home-top">
    		<div id="slider">
    			<?php if (!dynamic_sidebar('Home Featured')) : ?>
    				<div class="wrap">
    					<ul class="slider-posts">
    						<li class="slider-post">
    							<h2 class="slider-title"><?php _e("Home Featured", 'genesis'); ?></h2>
    							<p><?php _e("This is a widgeted area which is called Home / Featured Area. This area works best with the Delicious - Slider Widget to display what you see on the Delicious child theme demo site. Go to Appearance > Widgets and add an available widget to the Home Featured.", 'genesis'); ?></p>
    						</li>
    					</ul>
    				</div><!-- end .wrap -->
    			<?php endif; ?>	
    		</div><!-- end #slider -->
    	</div><!-- end #home-top -->
    

    So, it looks like this is pre-genesis loop.
