Dark gray top and bottom border on header image (again)

Hiya!

First of all, thank you for a wonderful wordpress theme. It's awesome.

On to the topic.

I'm building a site, and similarily to http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=7243 I would LOVE to get rid of the dark gray THING surrounding my header image. (Although it looks very black to me, now that I think about it. No sense of colour. Sorry!)

However. I can't for the life of me find any {border} code in my files that relates to div#imagecontainer.

Obviously, I'm quite new to the whole wordpress deal. Please forgive me if this is such a simple problem that it bothers you.

I keep hearing about CSS inserts. This is the theme files (for example, bfa_header_config.php), right?

Thank you for any and all help!

Go the ATO>Add CSS/HTML Inserts and then to the CSS Inserts box. In there you will see this CSS entry

HTML Code:

div#imagecontainer {

border-bottom:5px solid #333333;

border-top:5px solid #333333;

}

Just take out or change the border as desired.
You should never have to go the the files for changes to this theme. All of the settings are in the Atahualpa Theme Options.

Hope that helps.

Thank you

That solved everything. Although I had to mark the css insert box and press ctrl+a and paste it into a textfile to actually get at the code. I would never have guessed that the seemingly blank, small boxes actually contained code. Now I'm going to have to check every option box this way :p

try disabling all your plugins and see if this changes. There is probably a plugin conflict.

Actually, I only have two plugins, the ones that came with wordpress, "Hello Dolly" and "Akismet". Both I disabled from the get-go.

what version of PHP are you running? if you don't know, add this line

HTML Code:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

as the first line of ATO->Style & edit CENTER COLUMN->Content ABOVE the LOOP then view the site and get the info and remove the line.

PHP Version 4.4.9 is what I get when I put that code in.

Later versions of WP and the theme require at least PHP 5, I believe. Ask your hosting company to upgrade.

PHP 4.4.9 is discontinued. You should be at version 5.2 or there abouts. Many plugins require at least version 5.

Some host control panels let you upgrade but you may have to contact your host to do that for you.

You can try adding

HTML Code:

AddHandler x-httpd-php5 .php

to your htaccess file. This is how you force the site to run php5 if you are on godaddy. It may work elsewhere
