PB Profile Constructor

[jamesbowater]

I got onto the source but found it very hard to discover the name of elements so i thought maybe if an experienced coder could post the name of elements up here it would help? Me personally, i want to know what the name of "date registered" is? Any help?

huh

Well to create new things you have to say where you want them to appear by writing the name of the element you want your new element to be above. I was wondering what the name of the elements are as i had a look at the souce but couldn't find out what they where called.

Ok I'm not going to lie, I couldn't code myself out of shoe with directions on the heel ... but I'm learning. I'm having a problem with the mood hack...

Below are a few examples of how to use it. This JS file must be placed in the Global header...

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://webpost.net/pb/pblibrary/PB_Profile_lib.js"></script>

You can use it from there, or if you like you can upload it to your own host.

- Mood Hack

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

PBProfile.create({
modify_position: "sex",
bio_position: "posts",
mini_pro: true,
name: "Mood:",
description: "Select a mood from the drop down list.",
access: "all",
elem: {
element: "select",
options: ["Happy", "Sad", "Angry", "Cheerful", "Joyful"]
}
});

//-->
</script>

I have a pretty good understanding of how most all of it works (thanks for the great descriptions by the way). I understand that the js file needs to go into the global headers, but where does the rest of the code go? Does it follow the initial <script type="text/javascript" src="http://webpost.net/pb/pblibrary/PB_Profile_lib.js"></script> or am I totally missing the point?

Like I said I'm really new to coding (stupid business management major!) but using proboards has honestly helped understand a lot of stuff I would have never thought twice about. If you have some time could you explain this code to me?

Thanks for reading!

You would place it in the global footer.

Main footer would work, but then it wouldn't display on every page.

Can I use it to answer code request for Profile Hacks? Please?

[Ross]

Well it is open source so is free to be used in pretty much any way you want

Finally i learned how to make a Code

peeter, did you happen to fix the error with the colon : ?

itt causes an error so when you save something likee a url:

url.com

it will only show http andd thats all beecause of the colon.

Just change the ID delimiter to something else.

Wow. You are brilliant. That's a beautiful code. I love it...I'll have to make my own version of course...=P

Why? The point is that it is open source so that everyone can use it. No point in reiventing the wheel .

Yeah, exactly what I was thinking.

The idea of doing this was to maybe sometime in the future when there are a few more constructors done, that they can all be in one place so people can use them as they like. So coders who are starting out will be able to create hacks without much knowledge.

The whole thing is aimed towards any coder, experienced or not. Just because a coder is experienced, it doesn't make them a n00b using a premade library, toolboxes etc ect. But they don't seem to realise that

Oh well.

Point taken, both of you...Now if someone says I'm a noob for using a premade source, well, I can just as easily recreate it or something...My main thing is that I want people to know I'm able of doing this... =P

If anyone calls you a noob for using a premade source simply post this:
aha aha hahahahahahahaha *points and laughs*


That should take care of it. Of course you could just link here .
