Header images with Atahualpa

  • Hi All,

    I am currently building the web site for my place of work using this fantastically versatile theme (atahualpa) but I have found one thing I would like to do that I can’t figure out how to. I wish to have my homepage without any header image, I still want to have the header banner but not the image. Is there anyway of removing the header image from just one page?

    Many thanks.

    Hey Moggsie and Fjiorea,

    To be clear, I’m using wordpress 2.6.2 so the navigation flow may be different for you guys. Plus, I can tell you two posted about a week ago so if you’ve figured it all out, GREAT! If not, read on…

    I get the impression you two are describing different problems with this theme. I believe Moggsie would like to disable the rotating image header while Fjiorea would like to put his / her own code where the current logo / blog name banner is displayed.

    First Moggsie:

    Log into your WordPress Admin panel. Navigate to “Design -> Atahualpa Theme Options -> Header” Here you’ll notice the “Configure Header Area” text box. The default reads:

    “%page %logo %bar1 %image %bar2”

    The rotating image header can be disabled by deleting the “%image” entry. The above would then look like:

    “%page %logo %bar1 %bar2”

    But then you’ll have to bars, so you’ll probably want to disable one.

    Fjiorea:

    I’m not 100% sure if you can add your own javascript in the same menu mentioned above. If it were simply a matter of changing the logo then you could use the above menu. But since you plan on implementing JavaScript, you could just edit the “header.php” file by hand. Go to the admin panel, “Design -> Theme Editor,” under the “Templates” section you should see an entry for “Header(header.php)”

    I’m pretty sure you can just comment out / delete the javascript / php for creating the banner and substitute your own code.

    I hope that helps!

    Best

    I’ve used FileZilla to drag photos into the right basket in order to give more header pictures for the rotating header. But sometimes these pictures don’t appear on my web site after — just white space. I’ve sized them exactly 800×200 as some of the photos that DO work in this mode. Any ideas why jpg’s of the same size somehow wouldn’t work? Other thoughts?

    Hi Lorigga,

    Thank you for your reply – this is what I want to do however I only want to get rid of the header image on one page but have it for every other page. The method you describe removes the header image for all the pages.

    Cheers

    Hi Kjarrard

    I was playing with the header images just recently and they were 1350px x 260px but I don’t think that should be the problem. Not sure though. I have not had trouble with putting more images in. I did the same as what you mention.

    Moggsie, Bump your header div (not the stuff between the <head> tags, but the div that is either holding or calling the image after the </head>) down into your content area.
    Once you move it into the content area you can edit each page to reflect it. Index.php, single.php and page.php
