[SOLVED] Theme options page is not displaying or working correctly
I can't figure out if I screwed something up or what. This is what my theme options page looks like. I can't find anything because it's one long list:

Hope I did that right...
Anyway, please help!

try deactivating all your plugins
when did it start? had you just made a change to the site?

we traded responses in the air. I uploaded info.php to see what version php I was running because I want to show popular posts with a thumbnail. But I can't be certain the theme options were showing up correctly when I did that. I really haven't done much else.

So what precipitated this? Did you just do an upgrade? When was it last working?

I'm having exactly the same problem. When everything worked fine, I was running an old version of Wordpress and Atahualpa (more than a year out of date) because a technical problem at my host was preventing upgrades.
I switched hosts and then upgraded to Wordpress 3.3 with Atahualpa 3.7.3. That's when I noticed the problem... At first I thought it was a "feature" but the quicklinks don't work and it's been really difficult to use...
Any ideas?
Thanks!

One other thing - Mine doesn't seem to have all of the options. The HTML/CSS Inserts box is gone.

To be honest, I'm not sure when it started. I haven't made any changes to the theme options until today. I, like Michael, updated to 3.7.3 (a while back, maybe 2 weeks ago) and, given his description, that is probably when mine stopped working too. I just didn't realize it until today. Should I go back to the previous version? (which for me was 3.6.4)

OK, so -- THANKFULLY -- I did the proper technique for updating my theme last time as outlined on bytes for all, so that I could easily reactive 3.6.4. And it, indeed, brought my theme options back to normal.
I do still want to figure this out though, as I want to stay current with atahualpa. So I am eager to get to the bottom of this.
To recap, I did deactivate all plug-ins and that did not fix it. Beyond that, I've done very, very little messing with the theme.

do you have both versions in the theme folder so you can switch back and forth?
If so, would you let me poke inside a bit? If so send me a PM with an admin ID/pw and the URL
also who is your host?

any ideas? I've updated all plugins, then deactivated plugins, etc. Nothing fixes it. I can still make changes to the theme successfully, but this long list is intolerable. I have to scroll and search. I can't use the links from the contents.
thanks for any suggestions.
