I'm also using WordPress/Atahualpa for my photography blog at www.lafleurphoto.com . I was able to use Atahualpa's conditional statements (if x, then y) "above the loop" to create a unique layout (showing only one post on the front page, adding a bio above that post on the front page and making it look like a right-side column). I really appreciate how robust this theme is, along with the great forum support that has answered several questions along the way.

@Aaro: I'm using 4 instances of the Flickrpress plugin to display random refreshes from Flickr sets. However, I really like the way you set up the photo galleries on your site. Well done.

I would not be surprised if Atahualpa eventually became the default WordPress theme. Is there anything it can't do?

I'm still working out some kinks, but...

Thanks for the elegantly customizable theme.

I've been using 3.4.2 at http://nybiathlon.org/blog/ since August.

Now I'm looking to implement this theme in a new wpmu site.

How did you do the menu bar?

Ber|Art Oct 23, 2009 09:34 AM

On what site? and what do you mean specificly

WpExplorer Oct 23, 2009 11:37 AM

Atahualpa is amazing! There is literally no limits to what you can do. In just under an hour I was able to fully customize it and make a great looking site.

I am using firefox mostly, and it looks perfect. However, IE8 shows only the top graphics.

How I wish we didnt have to design twice to make up for IE ... sigh...

WpExplorer Oct 24, 2009 02:11 AM

Hey, thanks for the heads up guys...

I had cross browser checked it on ie6, ie7, ie8 firefox and safari and it looked good on all...I'm wondering if one of those social badges I just added broke the code somewhere.

Ill double check.

thanks again!

WpExplorer Oct 24, 2009 11:24 AM

The "Lightbox 2 Plugin" was causing a script error and not allowing my site WpExplorer to render in IE7.

Problem is fixed now if you want to check it out!

sparksmex Oct 24, 2009 01:01 PM

Yep ... works fine. IE7 crashed and closed before

MyJourneytoMillions Oct 24, 2009 10:40 PM

Love Atahualpa - I customized a good amount I think!

WP Explorer, love your site! It looks great in Safari and Firefox. I haven't checked it in any flavor of IE but it sounds like you fixed that problem. Very nice use of the background graphic and overlay of the content area. That inspires me to try something similar, although I can't give up so much vertical screen real estate to the graphic. Just something peeping out behind the edges for a few pixels, maybe. How does this look degrade if somebody has a small screen?

WpExplorer Oct 25, 2009 11:13 AM

Thanks Paulae. I am still working on the design to get it better...Its kinda still in its building stage...

I love seeing what others have done with Atahualpa. This is my site http://icommunicatie.nl/ (Dutch)

Just got this versatile theme. Here's what I've done so far. www.dewizard.com

I run a bastardized version of Atahualpa on my site SuburbanDollar.com I found the tabular layout a little hard to get things the way I wanted to so I changed it to a CSS layout which allowed me to float two columns to right and made spanning easier for domtabs and some other custom sidebar stuff. Would love to hear what you think, also why is the theme using tables as opposed to CSS for it's layout?

Flynn Nov 2, 2009 04:42 PM

A DIV-only layout works well for a static layout but is not robust for fluid layouts. You have a static width layout so working with DIV's only is fine.

I am saving DIV layout instead of CSS layout because it's not like a table isn't part of HTML/CSS. There are more "display:" values for tables in CSS2 than there are for Divisions.

(And Atahualpa doesn't simply "use a table", it combines 2 DIV's with one (CSS controlled) table and "colgroup". The table behaves like a DIV, unlike a regular table it keeps its width even with wide content inside, but it doesn't drop as a DIV does under certain circumstances in IE6.)

Would love to have your feedback.

Atahualpa is such a great theme even for a non css-php expert.

So far I've commited Passive&Eco which describe our project to build a passive house (without traditionnal heating) at a "low" budget.

I'm also working on another site for a friend of mine.

Google translate inside so don't hesitate to have a look.

I love this theme!
Thanks to the great community (I've learned a lot!).

jasonchamb Nov 8, 2009 09:22 AM

I had been using Atahualpa for a few experiments, but Blogger screwed our site up badly on Friday, so I had to throw this new site together very quickly, and it's a big improvement over the previous incarnation. Three Guys One Book. I'm pretty happy, though there is still some tweaking to be done. I also welcome any feedback from the posters here to help me improve it.
thanks
