Posting Activity Plus [library support]

[Former Member]

I'm so sorry, I don't think that quite answers what I'm asking. =/ I don't want to be difficult but that didn't clarify anything for me and I'm not sure how to proceed... I was hoping you could be a little more clear about how exactly that coding would look to complete the three color changes I outlined?

Would I put
div.mini-profile div.post-activity font {<font color="2d2821"><background-color:"75664e"><border-color:"534430">}
?
And, likewise, would it be located as such:

{if $[user.is_member]}
<div class="info">
Posts: $[user.posts]<br>
{foreach $[user.mini_custom_field]}
<br /><span class="$[user.mini_custom_field.content_class]">- <b>$[user.mini_custom_field.name]</b>: $[user.mini_custom_field.value]</span>
{/foreach}
<br /><br /><span class="post_act" style="display:none"><center>Registered: <font color="2d2821">$[user.registered_on]</font></center></span>
{if $[user.is_online]}<font color="3f311e"><center>Member is Online</center></font>{/if}
<center><div class="awards"></div></center>
div.mini-profile div.post-activity font {<font color="2d2821"><background-color:"75664e"><border-color:"534430">}
</div><br />
{/if}
?
I know this has got to be aggravating when I obviously don't know what I'm doing or what you're saying but please bear with me, I assure you this is all I'll need for the activity bar. =)

that is the template you are editing. go to the forum CSS area. it lists the CSS for the entire forum.. one long page of stuff. scroll to the bottom of it and add the CSS

div.mini-profile div.post-activity font {color:#2d2821; background-color:#75664e; border-color:#534430;}


you might want to checkout a site like w3schools.com for how to edit CSS on a site. that way you can make all sorts of changes to things.

Oh ohkay, thank you very much! That makes much more sense to me. I really appreciate the help, Wormopolis!

Alright, I feel like the biggest nuisance in the world. I truly apologize for bugging you again x.x' I put it here:

and it didn't alter anything. Can you tell if I did anything wrong? Worst case, I can revert back to the normal Activity Bar rather than this version but I'd love to get this to work if possible. =)

[Wormopolis]

if you want to affect the text alone change it from font to
font[font size="1"]

if you are trying to affect the whole box, remove the font

It's still not working, I'm most likely doing something wrong. I put an example of what I'm trying to achieve at the bottom of the image but it is extremely poorly done, hopefully it's still at least a little clear xD IMAGE

[Wormopolis]

Im checking. I swear I did this before though, so hold on...

[Wormopolis]

sorry it should be post_activity not post-activity

[Former Member]

That did it! It works now. It looks awesome, such a fantastic plugin. =) Thank you so much for your patience and helpfulness!

Hey, Wormopolis, I have <span class="post_act" style="display:none">$[user.registered_on]</span> in my mini-profile template, the plugin is set to show the general activity bar, and it was working before. I've been tampering/modifying my mini-profile and now it is no longer showing. I still have the required <span class="post_act" style="display:none">$[user.registered_on]</span> though so I'm not sure why it vanished. Do you have any idea? You can see an example of my mini-profiles here.

[Wormopolis]

it cant find posts anymore because you changed the default way it shows. you will need to put in another hidden span with the old way of displaying posts so it can see what the post counts are again.

there isnt a way to write a code to predict the millions of ways you guys make changes to your templates, so codes are written to work off the default display. you have to give it back so the code gets what it needs, but set it to display:none so it doesnt actually show.

[Former Member]

Easy enough. So I just need to put in

<div style="display:none;">Posts: $[user.posts]</div>

EDIT: Yep, that worked like a charm. Thank you, Wormo! As helpful as ever =)

[Wormopolis]

Exactly right! plus now I think you get how the process works with codes.

[Former Member]

I've been coding almost nonstop for a week or two now to get the hang of it so I'm definitely catching on. =) Thank you very much for prompting me to start learning, I've been able to do so much more with my forum--and from scratch, not just implementing others' codes. I love it =D -salutes- Owe it to you, man
