I would suspect there may be a plugin for that. I would do some searching at wordpress.org.
I am using Atahualpa 3.4.6 and am no newb to this theme, but after a whole year of trying the different theme updates i still cannot get it to look correct if I update. I have tried anything and everything suggested in these forums and I am at my wits end because I really want to update my theme version! Why can't we have a friendlier plug and play version?
I am now looking for another theme to switch to, not upgrading to the current version just isn't safe as we all know. I am using WP 3.1. Is there anyone in the forums who could possibly do an upgrade for me and I can donate to the person a small fee maybe? I really do want to keep Atahualpa if possible!
debandjohnonline.net is my blog site.
Thanks for your time and this great theme.
One more thing. Please turn-on the Atahualpa Settings > Use Post / Page Options by default (rather than turned-off) in future releases. It's an important option for disabling the HOme page title, a very common need, that most beginners will find very difficult to find otherwise.
Debb - If you are having issues with upgrading, why haven't you opened a thread? Yes, there were some issues with 3.4.7 - 3.4.9 but they were cleared up and 3.5.3 is pretty solid.
Please open a thread and let us know what your issue are.
Kazna... I figured that's what you meant. There are plugins for integrating photos from various photo services into WordPress and even some of the slideshow plugins allow you to specify a URL rather than uploading an image.
happy to found out this... no prob with the multisites option.
Are you saying you had "Use Google Libraries" installed and deactivating it solved the problem with multisites?
I am a novice and have found it impossible to change the permissions that enable new header images to be uploaded. I upgraded to Atahualpa 353 without success. Permission change was denied using Cute and Plesk control panel. Fom WP it looks as if its still running 349. The site I'm testing on is www.hayns.co.uk/hayns. Any help would be much appreciated but please remember I'm a real novice.
That would be something you have to take up with your hosting company.
All appears OK now. Inexplicable why Plesk and Cute did not work.
I have a huge basic problem.
Twenty Ten works without a problem.
Do any of you have any idea what is going wrong? The only plugin activated is Akismet.
Magic! That worked beautifully. I would have never thought of that!
I have copied my folder (atahualpa353) into the wp-content/themes folder and it does not appear in word press dashboard. I am using atahualpa 3.4.9 at this time, but the folder name in the wp-content/themes folder is atahualpa. Any suggestion to get it to show up so I can activate it in wordpress.
Are you using WP multisite?
The reason I mention multisite is you have to "enable" themes for them to show up in the theme switcher area.
Hi,again, Larry and Juggledad. I am using ATA 3.4.6. I just got it looking like I want it to and am afraid to upgrade. Also afraid not to upgrade. What will I need to reinstall? My posts? Plugins? Do you have any suggestions for someone who is really not good at this?
If you use the manual upgrade method as outlined here you can just switch back to the 3.4.6 theme if things don't look right. Of course you should always backup as outlined in the upgrade instructions as well if you are at all concerned as that will at the very least give you peace of mind.
You will have to copy over and images from your current theme images folder and sub-folders and change the paths in the theme options if necessary but that is not too big a deal. I leave the older theme there until I am sure all images and settings have been completed. You might even want to download the images folder for you current Atahualpa theme version to have a backup as well.
If you have any questions during the process don't hesitate to ask.
Which of the versions listed is safest to use, least likely to have bugs, and least likely to be changed again anytime soon?
Do you know of any theme available that will never need updating? Maybe some WP themes?
I would go with 3.5.3 but you should add the bug fixes. I know of no theme that will never need updating unless you never update a plugin or WordPress itself. In that case you open yourself up for hackers and such. Updates are a necessary part of software and the web.
