Wordpress Theme "Atahualpa" version 3.0 ##################################################################### INSTALLATION: ##################################################################### 1. Extract the file "atahualpa3.zip" on your desktop computer, i.e. with WinZip or 7-zip ##################################################################### 2. Upload the complete folder "atahualpa3" with its contents to your web hosting account to the directory /your wordpress-install/wp-content/themes/ so the final destination of the "atahualpa3" folder becomes: /your wordpress-install/wp-content/themes/atahualpa3/ You will need a "FTP Client" Software for this, see "Requirements". ##################################################################### NOTE: In the next step, Atahualpa may look broken/without CSS in the preview window. It'll be fine "on air" though 3. Activate Atahualpa3 by clicking on its name or screenshot at: WP 2.3 and older: Your Blog -> Site Admin -> Presentation -> Themes WP 2.5 - 2.6: Your Blog -> Site Admin -> Design -> Themes WP 2.7 and newer: Your Blog -> Site Admin -> Appearance -> Themes From WP 2.5 on you'll have to click on "Activate [Theme Name]" after you selected the theme. In older version the theme will be activated without that step. If you have no "Site Admin" link anywhere on your blog, try http://www.your-domain.com/wp-admin/ If you've installed WordPress in a subfolder such as "blog", it would be http://www.your-domain.com/blog/wp-admin/ ##################################################################### 4. Reload you blog homepage and see if the theme is active. If not, repeat the steps above or post at http://forum.bytesforall.com/ If it looks broken, it may be a matter of setting the theme options. If the sidebars look empty, you may need to add widgets. ##################################################################### 5. Configure the theme at WP 2.3 and older: Your Blog -> Site Admin -> Presentation -> Atahualpa Theme Options WP 2.5 - 2.6: Your Blog -> Site Admin -> Design -> Atahualpa Theme Options WP 2.7 and newer: Your Blog -> Site Admin -> Appearance -> Atahualpa Theme Options ##################################################################### 6. The theme will automatically install 4 additional widgets: BFA Recent Comments An alternative to the default "Recent Comments" widget (This is not updated to WP 2.7 yet. Works but may link to single comments instead of comment pages) BFA Popular Posts Lists the posts with the most comments BFA Popular in Cat Lists the posts with the most comments in the given category BFA Subscribe Provides a Feedburner "Subscribe by Email" form, plus Posts and Comments RSS links & buttons A widget is a content block that you can drag and drop into one of the sidebars.

OPTIONAL: Install additional plugins to enhance your blog Atahualpa3 should work with just about any plugin.

You can delete style.css and save 1 hit to the server. ##################################################################### LICENSE: "Atahualpa" is a WordPress theme Copyright (C) 2008 BFA Webdesign, BytesForAll.com This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
