Clickable Header & Problem linking images
2 Issues I'm having.
-I have "make header clickable" to go to home selected but isn't working. Does it have something to the use of WP 3.0 custom menus? -Also when I go to link an image, it isn't always taking. It just goes back to a blank linking form. I have the Super-edit plugin as well as Shutter, reloaded. Do you think it could be conflicting with something? I'm also using Chrome. Thanks! |
What version of atahualpa and wp?
What is the URL showing the issue? |
WP 3.0.1 (current) and the Beta Atahualpa 3.5.3.
It's any URL I try to link up to an image. |
Atahualpa 3.5.3 is not beta, it is the current release.
What is the url of your site and can you describe where on your site the issue is. |
Good morning juggledad. Are you a dad that juggles your life, or a father with a juggling hobby? I'm also a magician, as you'll see here.
http://timfreeland.com/ Is the header not clickable because of the rotation?? Thanks! |
(both)
the problem is caused by the code that is used to do the fading - shut off fading for the header and it will work. This issue is being looked at. |
Hi,
Wondering if this was ever resolved. I'm encountering it myself here: http://www.uschillel.org/ I have rotation turned on and also have the image set in ATO to link to the home page. Using the latest version of Atahualpa (3.6.7) I know they don't want to turn off the rotation... Thanks! Rick |
No. The jscript that causes it was lifted from the Internet and it's author has acknoledved the issue and abandoned it.
You could put a widget area in the header - replacing the images - and try the. Plugin 'dynamic header' |
Thanks, Juggledad! I am having the same problem and will try your suggestion.
Blessings, Gushina:) |
I'm trying to solve this also. I'm running 3.7.9.
Not finding any plugin called "Dynamic Header", but there's a "Dynamic Widget" and "WP Display Header". I'm willing to pay someone to fix this, if necessary. see it here: homegarden-journal.com |
http://wordpress.org/plugins/dynamic-headers/ was the one
|
Ok, I got it installed and followed the instructions for the plugin and have come to this:
"You have 2 options for adding your dynamic header: Option 1 (Recommended): Simply drop the this line of code into your theme file that controls your header (usually header.php) Note: The location to add this code can vary widely from theme to theme and depending on your theme's css settings you may have to use Option 2 and modify the CSS of your theme **BACKUP ANY THEME FILES BEFORE MODIFYING** <?php if(function_exists('show_media_header')){ show_media_header(); } ?> This will automatically determine what type of media you are using and generate the appropriate code to insert it. No other coding is required on your part. Option 2: You can use this line of code to simply get the URL of the media for a particular post or page. This will allow you to do some more advanced things and embed the media yourself if you know what you are doing. <?php if(function_exists('dh_get_page_image_url')){ $dynamic_header_url = dh_get_page_image_url(); } ?> You can then use the variable $dynamic_header_url however you see fit. It will contain the full path to your media file for that particular page/post, including any default media that should be shown. It is advised that most users simply use Option 1 if at all possible, as it is significantly more simple. Note: This function can return NULL or the string 'None' if there are no headers for the current page. Important Notes: On archive pages, the header media is controlled by the first post in the list. We plan to add control for archives pages separately in a future release, but for now, be aware that the first post on an archives page controls that page's header. " So where the heck to I stick this code? I'm thinking in bta_header_config.php - but, where? And will this negate the rotating images? Thanks!!! |
replace the %image in the 'configure header area' option with a new widget area
add a text widget or a php aware widget to the new widget area if not using a php aware widget, install the plugin 'exec-php' add the code they give you to the widget What you will have done is replaced Atahualpa's header processing with the dynamic header processing. |
Ok, you lost me. I'll just post this on Elance.
|
really? this should take 5 to 10 minute
1) install the plugin 'exec-php' and activate it 2) in the 'configure header area' option , remove the %image and replace it with HTML Code:
<?php bfa_widget_area('name=dynamic header area'); ?> 4) go to dashboard->appearances->widgets 5) add a TEXT widget to the 'Dynamic Header Area' widget area 6) add your code to the text widget 7) test it out. |
Ok, but now it doesn't rotate through the images. The header is linked to the home page, but it's static on one image.
Rotating images is a nice touch, but if it's this much of a pain to get it hyperlinked I'm just going to abandon it. Thanks for trying Juggledad!!!! |
