Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Post thumbnails gone after upgrade

Well I jumped to 3.67 and with it my post thumbs disappeared.

It was sad enough to see the custom code interface go away but this thumb-thing is aggravating. I could use some help figuring out what changed or what I am overlooking.

Thanks.

what version were you on?
Did you also upgrade WordPress? are you using the Featured Images for the posts?

I came from 3.4x.

I also upgraded WP but I don't recall doing it at the same time (but at least within the same week).

No to the use of Featured Images. Simply post images.

One of the things I have done was to disable extraneous plugins. Once the Thumbs issues is resolved I will gradually add them back.

I suspect that it is related to too many changes in close succession.

When I upgraded ATA there was a problem in that the admin screens did not look right. So I flipped to Twenty Ten and then back again. That resolved that problem.

This may or may not be related. I wanted to start using the Rotating Images feature and overlay the blog information. Well, when the page loads I see the overlaid text but if vanishes within a second.

Wordpress now uses something called 'featured images' (do a google search and you can read about it) in place of thumbnails. I thing there is a plugin that will generate them for you.

There is a known bug in the fade in/out code that overlays the blog title. You may even see the image jump a little. The author of the code has stopped developing it and acknowledges the bugs, so what you see is what you get

I must be missing something real obvious. I've always had images inside Posts and these always showed up as Thumbnails in the loop.

go to a post and look on the right hand side and you should see a 'Featured Image' section where you can assign a image

This is a wordpress feature not a theme feature. The theme will display it if it exists. This whole issue of featured images made it's debut in WP 2.9

Here is a tutorial http://wordpress4dummies.info/2010/0...-wordpress-30/
