Okay, so how do I link it so that these ranks that are given by the plug in change the username colours of users? Do I link it somehow through User Groups or User Ranks? Sorry to ask so many "Plugins for Dummies" questions.

Member Ranks are determined by post count and have no bearing on the username color.

On the Member Groups page you can assign colors to each group you've created, but those groups need to be manually assigned to users. Unfortunately there's no way to tie them to post count like ranks.

Yeah, I've got all of my user ranks sorted out.

So what is the purpose of creating legends? Like I said, I'm very new to forums and I saw this assuming it might be what I was looking for.

To give users an indication of what each display name color means, like how all the admins on this forum have red names while all of our moderators have green names.

Okay, four things I couldn't figure out how to do....

1. Switch the places of where the title and the user groups are displayed to have the title on top and users on bottom.
                                                  -or-
2. Make it so that when you hover over the title text is replaced by the user group text, and have it on either the top or bottom. 

3. Have text for user group always displayed as user group, and have that text replaced on hover over.

4. Make the user group text a solid color instead of changing to match the boxes. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Ideally I would like to have the title replaced on hover over to display the user group name, the text stay a single color, and have the title on top as opposed to below.

1 can be done by going into the plugin's Build page and swapping them around manually.

2 would require a change to the Javascript.

3 doesn't sound any different than what the plugin already does, so I'm confused about that.

4 has a setting within the plugin already.

Thank you for the response! 

1. I was kind of hoping for a how. I tried a few things but it didn't work. Could you help me out?

2. If that is something that is not an easy change that is cool, I just don't know how. 

3. When you mouse over the boxes, the words appear, group one, group two, group three. I would like to just have a text always displayed, like "User Groupd", then when you hover over the box it changes to, "User Group One," rather than having no text displayed when you mouse off the box. 

4. Opps I missed that. But have now found it!

So basically 3 is just 2.

I sent you a PM since I don't want to post the entire source code.

Thank you so much! I love it! And yeah I guess it was, haha. Sorry if it was a pain.

Hello, Brian.



I wish to put the User Legend in this place above the online members usernames. How do I do it ?

Go to Themes > Layout Templates > Home and add <div id="user-legend"></div> wherever you need it to show up.

Brian Thank you for this wonderful addition to our site.

Of course, the default settings are small. How do I make them bigger and on the right hand side? Maybe this has been already covered in a previous thread.

You can change the size of the buttons in the plugin settings.

You'll need to go into detail about which aspect of the plugin needs to be right-aligned.

I will look for the settings. As for placing the table to the right-hand side. Please see this image.
