I would like to insert a new field into the mini-profile/profile that includes a user's Player name. So "Player: ......" It could go below the rest of the information, as the mood display did. If there's a code for that kind of thing, I didn't find it. XD |

Where is Crossfury? *squints eyes* And couldn't it be added like the mood display was? It was just added to the bottom below the remodel and I used CSS to make it look like everything else. |

this is something the user fills out right? how many things do you have already adding into the MP that the user fills out? I ask because space might be limited.

So far as I recall, nothing. I took off the mood code because it seemed like it took up more space than it was worth to me. XD although, I do have an achievement code, but it uses custom title space and only shows up in the main profile.

ok cool. codes like this have to use available space to store data. most of them use personal text. if personal text gets too big, you lose data and things stop working.
crossfury uses external hosting so it doesnt fall victim to that.
link me to a profile that you want to test on, and let me know where you want it to show up.

We can just test it on mine.
Is it possible to put it right above the avatar? If not, then either under the personal text or under all of the stuff. If you could show me where to edit the CSS in the code once you show it to me, that would be fantastic. XD |

Bump! I think it's possible for the addition to be included by the mini-profile mod. I was using Ross's Money Hack v3, and by placing it above California's mini-profile tables, the points were added to the tables. I'm not sure if there's a specific reason, such as intention by Ross, but I thought I would let you know in case there was something that could be done like that. |

the mini profile remodel was written after Ross's code and the money hack was so popular, Cali put something to look for it.
I can have it run after the remodel and put the results after the avatar, but what kinds of stuff are they going to put there? like how much will be stored? personal data can only hold about 50 chars I think.

It would only store a player's handle, nothing else. Mine would be Streamstrider, or Stream, for instance. |

does it do anything special like link to a site or something?
I ask because it seems like they could just put "Player Name: oogy-boogy" into their personal text to begin with.

Well, I was considering the possibility of having it link to a "player profile" somewhere on the forum, which would be great, but not necessary. The reason I don't require it to be placed in the personal text is because, frankly, you'd have to PM people constantly to add it to their profiles, even if it was in the rules. It's just one of those things you'll forget if there isn't a reminder somewhere, while you're changing it.
Also, out of curiosity, is there a way to have it use sig space instead of personal text space? |

sig space can be used as well. but with the same caveat that if they exceed the 250 max characters in the signature it will cause it to stop working for them.
wait dont you already have a code that links them to a profile?

No? Oh, you mean the "Profile" link in their custom title? That goes to the character profile. What I meant with this is having their player handle link to a "player" profile, since some players have multiple characters and multiple accounts. Linking might be too much, though, so I think that perhaps just putting the name would be good. |
