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

very nice looking. I'd suggest resizing you images, the header images on the 'BORSE IN PLASTICA' page is 463K, you need to get in under 100k to speed up the page load

This is the first Montezuma Version of my Website Frank Hamm Webdesign. In the past I used Atahualpa, but because of responsive Webdesign, i switched to Montezuma for my 2013 Redesign.

Constuctive Feedback is always welcomed.

Regards from Germany

Constructive criticism is difficult ... cos it looks good ;-)

Personally, I'd find a way to make the website name go full width rather than wrap, but that's because I'm really anal about white space. Also, the RSS link is a bit 'out on its own'. I know that's a 'theme' thing, don't actually understand why but I do find it a bit weird. That would be countered, to some extent, by a full width title above the navigation. Er ... don't know how you'd do it though! :-)

Looked again, and it would look even better (I think) if it went TITLE | SUBTITLE | RSS LINK then a navigation row below ... would give you more room to add additional navigation if you need to. On the other hand, I don't do web design for a living! :-)

Personally, I don't like the white-six.jpg image you have floating in front; it makes the site harder to read and is distracting, IMO. Other than that, I like it. Good color combination.

stayed true to montezuma's roots by keeping the default color scheme and layout. just a generic IT site with only small changes made. i added a second blog roll page, centered images while preserving black/white fade, changed a few icons, and played with a few other settings. love the montezuma theme and appreciate all the support provided by the admins. please don't post questions to this thread...juggledad will find you.

totesit: you need to put in the PATCH 113-01 or the site looks terrible in Safari

juggledad: PATCH 113-01 kills the black/white fade and decenters my featured images. i rolled back for now, will look into this more and open a new thread if i have any questions. safari 5.1.7 for windows looks ok without the patch. hopefully i have no mac users visiting my site..

Hi there, this is my blog with the Montezuma Theme:

http://www.reisen-mit-rucksack.de/

I'm really happy about the design and features - although it was a lot of work to figure out some of the details...

I hope you like it, too! If there are any suggestions, please let me know!

Cheers!

Nice clean theme, but in Chrome the fonts used on the blog page look fuzzy, unsharp. I don't know why. They look ok in Firefox.

Hi everyone,

Just went live with this theme on http://freekraut.net/

I think it looks a ton better than the version of Atahualpa I set up several years ago, and the responsiveness is going to be a big hit.

Thanks!

Looks great. How do you get the tag line to change when the page refreshes, is it a plugin?

Ahhh! The originator of this thread is back again with another great MZ site.

Bitdefender blocks access to your site... If I click "understand the risk" It just gives me a message that I am not authorised to access it.

Kicks ass! Shows again how Montezuma is great theme that everybody can modify to their own taste.

One note: the fonts are a little too light (grey) for my taste.

Haven't been on here for a while. Thanks to belantos for the warning re Blueberry Bridge. I've scanned the site and as far as I can tell there is nothing wrong. I'll keep an eye out though - hackers are everywhere.

Another site - http://orchardcottagemuchmarcle.co.uk/

As hackavinash shows above, your finished site doesn't have to look anything like the original. Use Montezuma as a framework.
