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

Pls help with - How to get a header image to rotate every 'N' seconds (sticky)

The sticky at the top of the page is locked, so I can't ask questions there. I am trying to do the automatic rotating headers on my site because I thought that this would just be beyond awesome, but despite my very careful following of the very explicit directions (thank you, btw, for that - the directions were very clear and very easy to follow!) I am getting an error message on my site.

Now when I load my blog in Firefox, I get a message across the top of my blog (see attached screenshot with message circled). When I load my blog in IE, my header simply doesn't load at all, and at the bottom left of the screen, it says, "Done, but with errors on page." Obviously, something didn't go right.

Do you have any suggestions of what I did wrong or what I might try? Like I said, I tried to following the directions down to the letter, so I'm not sure what I did wrong.

Many thanks!

Thanks for the quick response!

Okay, you have it as

blog_address = 'url(http://www.nonfictionbookreview.com/'

There is no closing bracket ) in there. Is that right? It looks wrong to me, but then again, I am definitely NOT a coding specialist, LOL!

I went ahead and tried it anyway, and now my blog looks fine in IE (no error messages and my header shows up) but in Firefox, the strip of code still shows at the top. I even cleared my cache to make sure that when the page reloaded, it would pull a brand-new copy of my site, and still has the code in there.

Any ideas?

PPS Also forgot to say: The header does not actually rotate either. Sorry, almost forgot the most important point of all of this! LOL!

Hi, I 'm looking it in safari and firefox and it loops, but it will only do it every 50 seconds (50000 miliseconds =50 seconds) change it to 5000 and try it
