Adding a Flash Header to WordPress Theme – Update

This is an update to a previous post where I explained how to “tweak” an Artisteer theme to add a Flash header.

Two things have happened since I wrote that post. First, the plugin used to create the Flash header – Flash Fader Revived – has been removed from WordPress, nowhere to be found. Second, starting with release 2.4, Artisteer has incorporated the Flash header capability into the software. What this means is that now you don’t have to “tweak” any files to add a Flash header to your theme. On the other hand, now you have to provide a Flash “movie” to be displayed in the header area.
