And there goes my HTML and CSS knowledge.

If you want to post your current HOME template, I'll add in the parts you need and you can then just copy and paste back into your home template. Be sure you are posting your ENTIRE home template, though, if you want to do this - as you'll be pasting the new one over the top of the old one and you don't want any parts missing.

To insure you've got everything, while on your home template in the admin area, click anywhere inside the template box so your cursor is blinking in there. Then, press CTRL+A and the whole thing should highlight. Once it's highlighted, press CTRL+C to copy it all. Then, come here, and in the reply (or quick reply - either will work) box, press CTRL+V to paste it. Then just post it. I can give you the steps to put the new one once I've got it set for you.

Just as a heads up, Brian:

I was able to help smileysjm get it re-located to where he wanted it (via PM's), but there are a couple of other things he asked about that I wasn't able to help with. I'll let smileysjm post of what he needed help with now.

Just wanted to let you know the re-location was accomplished.

I would like to publicly thank Lynx for his invaluable help in assisting with my request. As he mentioned, I have some other features to be enabled that I hope Brian might be able to point me to the right direction with these:

1. I want the word 'Legend' above the ranking as this is the title.
- Should I use TopStyle 5 to arrange this?


2. I do not want the boxes to be too far to the right as this causes the Forum Admin (first box) to be wrapped around. See the screen capture attached.

smileysjm: For the record the instructions I linked you to required no HTML or CSS knowledge whatsoever. They can be summed up as "go to this page and change this single line to this, then copy this new thing and paste it after this particular line." All the work that would've required said knowledge is already done for you. All that was required of you was to copy it.

I have no idea what a TopStyle 5 is.

You'd need to either use Javascript or edit the source of the plugin to rearrange the HTML it outputs. The default order of the elements the plugin outputs is:

- Rank Name
- Boxes
- Legend Title

What's your preferred order?

If you don't want that to happen you'll need to increase the width of the area holding the legend.

Go to Themes > Layout Templates > Home and find line 89:

<td class="last" style="width: 150px;">

Increase the number I've colored green to increase the width of the legend area. I'd recommend changing it to 250px.

TopStyle 5 is a HTML & CSS editor.

As for my preference, here is what I would like:

- Legend Title
- Boxes (next to that the Rank Name)

Thanks Brian

Go to Plugins > Build and click on the User Legend - Blocks plugin. On the following page click on the Components tab and find this line (should be line 6):

$('#user-legend').append('<div id="user-legend-name"></div><div id="user-legend-boxes"></div><div id="user-legend-text"></div>');

Change it to this:

$('#user-legend').append('<div id="user-legend-text"></div><div id="user-legend-name"></div><div id="user-legend-boxes"></div>');

Thank you Brian. Looking good.

I was able to install the plugin, however it's appearing on the right side of the "Users Online" (which I renamed to "Currently Journeying") Box. Is there a way I can move it so that it appears underneath the Usernames of the members who're online?

Rather than placing the element that produces the user legend inside of its own <td> element in that template try placing it right before the closing </td> after the HTML that produces the users online. This should make it show on its own line under your users online.

Bam, that worked like a charm. Sorry I took a while to get back to you; uni was being a troll.

New to proboards,
I installed the plugin to my forum, Its not showing on my front page where people visit or idle before clicking a board to post in. I'm assuming it has to do with the placement of this code?

<div id="user-legend"></div>

I'm just not sure where to post it so it shows on the front page where visitors and members can see it?

Themes > Layout Templates > Home contains the HTML that shows on your front page, while anything you place in Structure > Headers & Footers > Main Header & Footer also shows at either the top or bottom of the front page.

Not without editing the source code of the plugin.
