Allow members to edit their custom title

[merleh]

I'd like a plugin that allows members to edit their custom title without help from staff. Is this possible?

I have absolutely no idea if this is possible, but instead what you could do (and it saves having to have a plugin + wait for it to be made if it is possible), is move the "Status" above the avatar in the Template Modifications/Layouts, and then people can use their Status for this instead.


If people use their status for actual statuses, you could possibly add a custom field, where people could write in (Admin > Members > Custom profile Field)

Thank you! But how can I move the status above the avatar? What do I have to change in the template modifications?

Go to Admin > Theme > Layout Templates > Mini Profile, and find, the below (Line 18-20):

{if $[user.personal_text.message]}
$[user.personal_text]<br />
{/if}


Copy that, and then remove it, now place it on line 12, so it looks like this:

<div class="$[miniprofile_class]">
$[user]<br />
{if $[user.is_guest]}Guest<br />{/if}
{if $[user.group]}
$[user.group.name]<br />$[user.group.stars]<br />
{elseif $[user.rank]}
$[user.rank.name]<br />
{if $[user.rank.stars]}
$[user.rank.stars]<br />
{/if}
{/if}
{if $[user.personal_text.message]}
$[user.personal_text]<br />
{/if}
{if $[user.custom_title]}$[user.custom_title]<br />{/if}
$[user.warning.bar]
<br />

Thanks, it worked well! Is it possible to make the font size for this bigger? Or would it influence 'member is online', too?

This can be accomplished by going to Admin > Themes > Colors and Styles > Style Sheet

Scroll down to line 1108 and you should see the below:

@mini_personal_text_font: [font color="e61919"]75%[/font] @default_forum_text_font_family;

Simply replace the 75% with any higher (or lower if you want) percetange/size you want.
You can use either pixels (px), percent (%) or point (pt).
