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] Inserting a photo image in a sidebar

Hello please help....I am following instructions I have seen on a thread here from Admin but I seem to be getting no where. I have put the following code in the Add html/css inserts....is that right?

td#left {
background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahaulpa/images/capatilist mice (1512 x 811)(2).jpg);
}


I also have that in the style and configure sidebars. Where am I going wrong? I know it recognises the image as it is in my header but I am lost after many variations..

Thank you...

no spaces of special characters are allowed in file names. Rename the image from 'capatilist mice (1512 x 811)(2).jpg' to 'capatilist-mice-1512-x-811-v2.jpg'

Hello there..

td#left {
background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahaulpa/images/capatilist-mice-1512-x-811-v2.jpg);
}

Yep tried that in the CSS..nothing happened. I have also tried to just put colour in the side bar and it doesn't seem to be working either...in fact no effect will take on the left hand side. Is there a bug? except catergories and archives....

http://oleuanna.co.uk/ not sure if viewing it will help you help me....but I am stumped. Is it because I use a ftp to load my files to my host? Though I can not see why or how...
