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

Making Nice Looking List of Articles?

Hello!

I've been searching and going through the forums and different guides but can't really seem to find anything about my problem.

In my list of articles, I would really like to give them a nice preview like here:
http://www.popularmechanics.com/home/skills/

Nice, neat, clean-cut and with a picture instead of just linking with text.

Is there an easy way to do this? I don't know how to code but is there a plugin that will do it or anything?

Thank you very much for your time.

The latest versions of both. 3.5.1 and 3.0 I believe.

cocotona.com

And is there an easy way to go about putting thumbnails and excerpts on a page that isn't my blog in a neat order?

Thanks.

Last week I added a template to the gold forums tutorials that allows you to create a page and add a query to it to display all teh posts for a category(s) tags, or anything else you want. You could use it as teh basis of what you want to do. And I beleive there is a plugin that will make thumbnails from the images in existing posts.
