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

[SOLVED] menu item background image not showing in IE

Hello, and congratulations on a very useful theme. My first post. I'm have an issue with a backgound image (a little arrow) not showing in IE7( grrr!!!!!); it works fine in Firefox. Its set up to show an arrow under the current page link, and to show an arrow above the selected menu item when hovering over the other page links. Using Wordpress 3.04 and Atahualpa 353 This is the site -http://earlofdesmond.com/ Thanks for any suggestions (or constructive criticisms!)

Put a slash before wp-content for the paths to the hover and current icons. As an example
For the hover icon you currently have
HTML Code:
background: url("wp-content/uploads/2011/03/hovericon.png") no-repeat scroll center top transparent !important;
You should have
HTML Code:
background: url("/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/hovericon.png") no-repeat scroll center top transparent !important;

Wow Larry thanks for the speedy reply -great forum! I made the changes you suggested, but no go. I also tried adding quotes around the url , but still no go. It works in Chrome also, just IE causing the problem. Thanks for your advice.

Could you export and attach your settings file to a reply?

Two other things to try. Turn on IE 7 emulation in ATO>Style & Configure Layout and try using the full path to the images.
