[SOLVED] Atahualpa 3.5.3 and Dreamweaver CS5
Hi, I'm a newly registered donor/member and I was wondering if someone could please help me. I have cs5 and I'm using it to edit Atahualpa (by the way, what does that me?) but I'm having trouble changing the <div> tag image container file so that I can remove the gray border from my image and the bottom border, so that I can have my images height increased. Please forgive me if I'm not using the correct terminology I'm very new to all of this; wamp, index.php... I was also wondering if there was a tutorial showing exactly what all the different areas on a theme were, for instance; this is a header, footer, body of the image...that would really help. I did however find the line of code that I wanted to edit in DWs live code view but I could not edit it without disabling live view first but when I did that, the code disappeared. If I can't edit the theme in DW, is there any other way I could edit it, save the file, then load it up in DW and still have the changes that I made in effect?
Thank you in advance BellaMary |
Atahualpa is meant to be edited within the theme options. I have no idea how you would use Dreamweaver to "edit" this theme and wouldn't recommend it.

Thank you so much for your response, I have spent so much time trying to figure out how to get Atahualpa configured correctly within DW that I was running out of time on my "trial period" because I wanted to see if it would be the correct program to use to edit WordPress themes. I had no ideal that I could just edit this theme (and others) all from the WordPress edit options.:o Everyone that I had spoken to recommended DW CS5 because it was the choice for web artist, that's why I had downloaded the trial from Adobe. I thought all this time, I was doing something wrong, thank you for clarifying this for me. :):):)
I have accessed the edit options on Atahualpa, but I honestly don't know how to reach the <div> tag for removing the gray bars from the image area, by the way since I don't have to use DW anymore, I've went back to the original version of Atahualpa that I had which was version 3.4.9. These are the steps I took to reach the code part of the theme: I click on theme, then I clicked editor, that's as far I can go without really getting confused. I don't know where to locate that line of code. The options on the right side of the screen list many sub categories under Theme but I don't know which one contains the correct line of code that I need. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, once again thank you for your response. |
Instead of clicking on Appearance>Editor click on Appearance>Atahualpa Theme Options. That is where you do your editing. The gray bars you mention are probably the background image as reference in Atahualpa Theme Options (ATO)>Body, Text, & Links. You should see a line there with the path to the background image.
It takes awhile to get familiar with the theme options but will save you time in the long run. |
I've tried everything but the two gray lines are still there. Is it possible because I'm editing this theme on my localhost that this is the reason why I cannot get rid of the two dark gray lines. I followed the information that you provided but I still cannot get rid of those two gray lines. I even deleted the background.gif in the c://wamp/www/wp-content/themes/images/background.gif but I still cannot get rid of those lines. I'm using Atahualph 3.4.9 on Windows 7.

Can you post a screenshot of what you are talking about. Perhaps I misunderstood.

this is an image of my website, its in html code at photobucket. I don't know how to copy and paste this image. I tried to use the select all option but that did not work. Thank you for being so helpful and understanding |

this is the direct link one, I really don't know which one to send you so I sent both. |
For those lines check out post #4 in the FAQ thread.

I found the lines of code you were talking about but unfortunately DW would not allow me to edit the code unless I turned off live view but when I did that the code went away. I found the file that contained that line of code but it was only after I looked in the www folder on my local server and not the one online at my remote server. I don't know how I did it but I was able to remove the top gray line from my image by going into the ATO menu within WP but honestly I don't know which line that I removed. I just compared the theme that I had on my localhost and the one that I have on my remote host and made the changes. I can't remember what I did to make the top gray line disappear and not the bottom one. You were right when you said to go in an discover this theme, now if I can only remember which one I discovered and do the same for the bottom. Here are the results;

It's not a file you want to go into. It is the Atahualpa Theme Options. You login to the WordPress Dashboard go to ATO>Add HTML/CSS Inserts>CSS Inserts and look for these lines.
HTML Code:
div#imagecontainer{ |
There gone, yea!!! Thank you so much. You have been such a great help to me, thank you.:):):)
