This is will allow the member to choose their own background image for their miniprofiles. Alright. It's pretty simple actually.

First go to Admin Home > Members > Custom Profile Fields

And then add a field named MiniProfile Background Image. Then change the type to Text Field. Then click "(View/Edit)" and select the URL button. Then save and close the popup. Then change the location to Members Profiles Only.

Now time to edit the miniprofile template.

Go to Admin Home > Themes > Layout Templates > Mini-Profile

Now on line 1, you'll see this:

<div class="$[miniprofile_class]">


And replace that with this:

<div class="$[miniprofile_class]" {foreach $[user.custom_field]} {if $[user.custom_field.name] == "MiniProfile Background Image"}style="background-image: url('$[user.custom_field.value]');"{/if}{/foreach}>


Now to add an image just go to your profile, then edit profile, then the personal tab. At the bottom you will see "MiniProfile Background Image" with an input field below it, just enter the image URL and voila.

I did all this but its not working for some reason? http:domshaven.freeforums.net/ thanks

Also, how can I hide the URL on my profile?

I'd Like to know this as well... I was noticing that that certain part looks a little sloppy for the member's profiles with the URL showing.

Thanks! Seems a very nice template and consider using it

Is there a way to add a "default" background for all members that have not select their own background yet?
