(Ross/Marc) User Profile Format Mod (15th Nov 08 at 8:20am UTC)
Before I say anything, WHAT I WANT CAN'T BE DONE THROUGH THE TEMPLATE SYSTEM! Just because I know it would be suggested Basically I want the profile and only the profile page to look something like this: http://universalanime.com/forums/member.php?u=129 without the comment of course and switching it with the signature area But I don't wnat it to effect the standard mini-profile, tahts why I say it can't be done through the mini-profile template Format: Mini Statistics: (use remove the blog posts) Activity: (Add the rank to the Mini Statistics area and remove it) Friends: (Equal to the buddy list) Albums: (remove) Group Memberships: (Shows all usergroups that are in, primary and secondary) Recent Visitors: (remove) Also if you need a mock image of how I want it formatted, please let me know. Edit: and it doesn't have to be perfect, i probably will be able to fix any errors myself Also the toggle effect on the side fields would be nice as well please.

profile page is easy, each field has an id <td id="posts"><font size="2">Posts: 282 </font></td> you can then take the data using the ID's the work is just making the HTML, using HTML

I still dont have much of an idea of how to go about it. when I mean still learning I mean learning Visual learner So if I don't see how its done one time around I would have no clue on how to go about it.as for the html, that is easy, well find of. The problem i see is that I would have to redefine the whole profile page, and yet not edit the mini-profile and then you are here talking about using class's and ID's, but where would that be called from for the side fields. The only thing I can think of is using innerhtml and defining the whole area that way, put i wouldnt know how to call the data

try this, GLOBAL HEADER <div id='vf_post'></div> GLOBAL FOOTER <script> var post_data = get('posts', ID).firstChild; get('vf_post', ID).appendChild(post_data); </script> something like that i fgt how vfworks XD ANYWAYSgive it a try and you should see the value for posts in the div.

ok now using that and repeating it would work to call the required data, but how about going about reformatting the whole profile page, the foprmatting is my main problem, I can add in the data and satuff on my own but I have no clue how to format the page, if i know how to do that I coukd of winged it and wouldnt fo had to request anything

Well I'm not positive but I think you can either work with the table already on the profile page by changing the attributes of the cells and adding rows and cells or you might be able to hide that entire table and just add your own with the info you want. I would like to work on this to so I will as soon as I finish butchering this deer. But I`m in the same shoes you are I`m still learning.

i was thinkning yes hiding the tables would be a good idea, but without js you would end up editing other tables on the forum as well. or I would think. And then how exactly would you go about having the html files be directed towards the profile page? I cant think of how. Becuase to tell you the truth I could easily make a the layout in html, but i wouldnt know how to embed it into the profile page....

you would use a if(location.href.match()) with some nifty reg expression to make the code only happen on the view profile page.
