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

Download 3.5.0 at http://wordpress.bytesforall.com/?p=91

New features:
  • fading rotating header images (until now they were just rotating)
  • new style 'ata-adsense.txt', now 4 styles in /atahualpa/styles/
Change:
  • The settings files have a new format now. On hosts where 3.4.9 worked, the old settings files should still work. On hosts that had a broken layout when Ata 3.4.9 was activated, only the new settings files will work
Bug fixes:
  • Various bug fixes that I'll list later.


Preview of new style 'ata-adsense.txt':
This style has one 728x90 ad place in the header. This ad area can be removed in the theme options.

Wordpress 3.4.1, Atahualpa 3.7.7
Flynn, thank you! So far, so good. I used the Wordpress 3.0 Install Theme option and used the zipped Atahualpa 3.5, and it went without a hitch. It kept the rounded style I was using in 3.4.9.

Did you realize there is a prompt at the top of the options page to take a look at 3.4.9?

Ah. I see!

I'm just beginning to dig into the goodies you've given us, Flynn. PHP can be added so many places!

Is there any reason except the noted above "new features" to upgrade from a fully working 3.4.9??
Or better wait until the CSS is offloaded completely....

It is still a hassle that the header and favicon files are placed inside the theme folder. This makes updating much harder than if they could be defined to an external folder so that on updating replacing folder would be enough...

You don't need to update if 3.4.9 works for you.

Hello Flynn,

If I Upgrade to 3.5, will I loose the customizations I made to my 3.4.9? You can view the customizations I made here: http://www.thevirtualonlineassistant.com/

You shouldn't, but you can export a settings file to be sure. 3.5.0 can import 3.4.9 settings files, although the settings format has changed.

Flynn,

I just wanted to congratulate you on the release of Atahualpa 3.5.0. Great job! Delete bfa_ata4 on Export/Import Setting makes it very easy to delete corrupted option bfa_ata4 in the database. And of course, Fade in/out Header Images makes Atahualpa (in general) simply the best!!

And again, congratulations!!!!!

I have just installed Atahualpa 3.5 by directly upgrading over v3.4.9. Importantly, the previous installation was running as a BuddyPress integration - the installation was essentially straightforward.

As a precaution I first used the new export facility in Atahualpa Options to export the previous settings to an external file, but this proved unnecessary as the upgrade automatically picked up all but one of of the settings made in Ata 3.4.9.

You can view the site at http://waterwaywatch.org

There were only two adjustments to make:

1. I have embedded a logo in the header. The name of the logo was carried forward in the settings but the logo file itself needed to be copied over from themes/atahualpa349/images to themes/atahualpa350/images.

As I remarked on the occasion of upgrading from Ata348 - > Ata349, it seems to me that it would be a relatively simple enhancement to have future upgrades perform this transfer automatically (after if the name of the logo file is transferred why not also move the file itself?).

2. As mentioned, my site is integrated with Buddypress and the upgrade broke that link. However, all that was necessary was to follow the simple instructions in the BP Compatibility Options in Appearance. All this entails is two clicks to copy the BP template files automatically to the new theme. It was not necessary to change the templates as is sometimes necessary with some themes.

Congratulations on a near flawless upgrade.

Regards


Will Chapman

just a quick question on the fading images. I removed the default images and uploaded my own. The images fade nicely, but for some reason I am still seeing the default ones along with the ones I added. I turned off pre-load and refreshed a few times but I am still seeing them. How can I remove them?

It's taking them from /atahualpa/images/header/ so if they aren't there it has to be some caching issue. They should be gone from the rotation the moment you delete them through FTP (or SSH, or web control panel)

All set! Thanks! FireFox was caching it. On another note, I just loaded 3.5.1 to another site I have and I cant seem to get the smooth menu to work. It's turned on, but it is not working. Is there another setting I missed?

OSX 10.11.5 WP 4.x Atahualpa(all) Safari, Firefox, Chrome
you need to have 'Rotate header images with Javascript?' set to something other than '0'

I'm closing this thread since 3.5.1 is out
