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

I am almost finished with my project and this last piece has got me really stuck - been reading help files for two hours and can't figure this out.

All i want to do is add an include which displays a flash piece and an image, on the homepage, right under the menu bar.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Here is the url:
http://www.precisionmedicaldevices.com/wordpress/

I am using the latest version of wordpress... & Atahualpa 3.6.4

I actually just figured out how to make a custom template - I was missing some header code that allowed wordpress to notice that the file is meant to be a template...

but now I'm not sure where to put the code, or how to do it best...
I want the flash and text stuck just beneath the menu bar like this:
http://www.precisionmedicaldevices.net/

Thanks in advance!

You might want to add a new widget area to the 'Configure Header Area' option and then put the flash in a widget

Can you give me a starting point for that?
How will it make it so that the widget spans the entire length of the page?

This is starting to look very promising now...
I just need to figure out why the flash piece doesn't show up ---
and then REALLY::: how to make it only show on the homepage and not the others.

Thank you!
