Wrong Theme Update!

    I’m notified in WordPress Updates, that there’s an update for my theme ‘Atahualpa’. And , in fact, there’s a small icon of the ‘Atahualpa’ theme beside the update notice. However, I don’t run ‘Atahualpa’. My theme is ‘Panorama’ (see here https://www.acornbbs.com).

    How do I correct this to ‘Panorama’ on my dashboard?

  • Is Atahualpa listed in Appearance -> Themes

    esmi: Under Appearance > Themes Panorama is listed at the top of the page as ‘current theme’ and this is correct. ‘Atahualpa’ is listed lower down on the page as an alternate theme amongst others. Under ‘Appearance’, and below Themes, Widgets and Menus, ‘Panorama Theme Options’ is listed again, correctly.

    It’s just on the WordPress Updates page that ‘Atahualpa’ is listed incorrectly. However, I’m concerned that if i applay the outstanding update, I’ll compromise my Panorama theme. Hope this helps!

    Not it isn’t. since you have that theme installed (even though you are not currently using it), you should update it. It will not affect your current theme.

    OK…I applied the update and everything seems to be fine!

    But…I don’t understand why Atahualpa is there in the first place! I was using ‘Twenty-Eleven’ prior to downloading ‘Panorama’. I may have temporarily downloaded ‘Atahualpa’, only to see what it looked like, but I quickly settled on ‘Panorama’. So, don’t understand where ‘Atahualpa’ comes in to the equation! Can you help me understand this?

    Only you can have installed Atahualpa into your site. If you don’t want the theme, delete it.

    How do I delete it? Without affecting my current website?

    Use the delete link under the theme’s screenshot in Appearance ->Themes.
