HOWTO: Easy Header Fix
If you use this fix... Think about donating to Juggledad, I've spent time figuring this issue out and coming up with the fix, but Juggledad is here daily supplying support. Being in the Philippines and without paypal, I cannot send money. However, you sending Juggledad a donation will encourage him (and me) to continue to support Atahualpa. You can use the 'Donate to Juggledad' button on the donate page.

Configuring the Easy Header Fix
STEP 1 Upload Image Files to any Page or Post Note: I suggest you use the ABOUT page! This makes them easy to find and change later. However you can use any post, page or even go straight to the media uploader. The rest of this will assume we are using the About page to anchor our site images to. From the About Page Click Upload/Image >> Add an Image Upload all Headers, Logos and your Favicon in the same place makes it easy to maintain. The Header Files and the Logo File MUST be in the same location. TAKE NOTE of the "File URL" and copy it! For this example case I will assume the following: (But you must use what your WordPress gives you!) FAVICONNote: If you have problems uploading .ico type files, login as Super Admin, navigate to the "Super Admin" menu "Options" >> Upload Settings >> Upload file types >> and add "ico" to what is already there. Example: jpg jpeg png gif ico LOGO ROTATING HEADERS
Note: Important Rules For Header File Names... 1) Header files MUST begin with "header_"Note: The following are examples of WRONG file names... header_be-4.jpg ~ Contains a Dash STEP 2 Rotating Header Files and Logo Examples Insert into: Atahualpa Theme Options >> Style & edit HEADER AREA >> Show Logo Image? 1) Custom Headers and Custom Logo http: //example.com/files/2011/02/Rx_symbol.png 2) Custom Headers and DEFAULT Logo /files/2011/02/logo.png 3) Custom Headers and NO Logo /files/2011/02/ 4) DEFAULT Headers and Custom Logo ~http://example.com/files/2011/02/Rx_symbol.png 5) DEFAULT Headers and DEFAULT Logo logo.png 6) DEFAULT Headers and NO Logo (leave blank) STEP 3 FAVICON Examples Insert into: Atahualpa Theme Options >>Overall Style & Config. >>Add a FAVICON 1) Custom FAVICON http: //example.com/files/2011/02/rx.ico 2) DEFAULT FAVICON new-favicon.ico Building on Success!

Although it is possible to use an external (not on your server) URL for the Favicon, I would not advise it.
For example: If your website was: http://example.com/You could use a favicon at: http://example.net/some/favicons/christmastree.icoThis is NOT possible in the case of the Headers and Logo.

BUGFIX and Easy Header Fix
Both Atahualpa 3.6.4 and 3.6.7 have a BUGFIX (one or more) that can cause problems for the Easy Header Fix. Please Go Here and install all BUGFIX's for your version BEFORE installing the Easy Header Fix. Look at the sticky topics at the top, you will notice Threads that begin something like "BUGFIX 364-09:" That means it is the BUGFIX for Atahualpa Version 3.6.4 and it is the Ninth (-09) BUGFIX for that version (meaning there are eight BugFixes before that one for Version 3.6.4). If you would like to know which BUGFIX's conflict with The Easy Header Fix (Which BUGFIX's you should not apply AFTER loading the Easy Header Fix) those are documented on the DOWNLOAD PAGE. It is always safe to do all BUGFIX's and then do the Easy Header Fix last, as we apply all BUGFIX's to the download version. |
Thank you for your job! This is very useful fix and shurely should be included in branch. I'm going to test this.
But will it work with newer versions of Atahualpa? I have 3.7.1 now |
