Change Member List Categories

[wtvr]

Is it possible to just show "Display Names" from the members list and remove the "Username" section, or change any other categories?

Also, is it possible to add new sections to the member list??  I would like to be able to add a new category titled "Website" which would be linked to the URL in the members profile.

Are either of these things possible?  Thanks

Yes, how much do you know about HTML? There is a layout template found under Members > Member list in which you can edit the columns.

To hide the "username" section, go under Layout Template > Members and delete this line:

<th class="username $[sortable_class.username]">Username</th>

Then, in its replacement, add your own category name:

<th>Website</th>

Then go to Layout Template > Member List and delete this line:

<td class="username">$[user.username]</td>

and replace it with your own category (such as website):

<td>{if $[user.website]}$[user.website]{/if}</td>

Let me know if that helps!

Ok im sorry I do have another question

Say I removed the "date registered" column, the board stretches out my new "Website" column.  Is there any way to fix this? I was kinda hoping to make the whole board slimmer but if not that's ok, Ill have to figure out what I can replace it with.  But Also my new category of "Website" isn't aligning correctly, the title is centering while the other categories are aligned to the left, is there a fix for this?

[Smangii]

I found a fix that will do two-in-one:

Just add this blue part to both of your websites column, we can "borrow" the alignment/width of username since you aren't using it as a column.

Layout Template > Member:

<th class="username">Website</th>

Layout Template > Member List:

<td class="username">{if $[user.website]}$[user.website]{/if}</td>

That aligned everything but now the main category of names is stretched way over to the right

How many other columns did you remove?

If you go to Advanced Styles & Css > Stylesheet, then find /* Members Page */ you can see a bunch of widths that can be edited if you want to make specific ones bigger or smaller (or add your own).

Find the start of these lines:

.members .name { width: 19%; ...
.members .username { width: 17%; ...
.members .rank { width: 16%; ...
.members .group { width: 16%; ...
.members .posts { width: 8%; ...
.members .date-registered { width: 18%; ...
.members .last-online { width: 18%; ...

It looks decently spaced out with Name, Website, Group / Rank, Posts, Last Online on my test board: smangiitest.proboards.com/members

hmmm I actually figured it out... I don't know what the "checkbox" column is but I got rid of it and it fixed it

edit: now my other skin is suddenly working even with the checkbox... weird

That checkbox column allows you to select/check off members if you want to mass follow/message/or moderate them, that is what the "Select" and "Action" dropdowns are for right above the columns.

[wtvr]

but do non-mods see that too?

[Smangii]

Yup, all members see the checkbox.

[wtvr]

ignore that bit I wrote in the edit before, the check boxes is the one that's stretching out for me

[Smangii]

Can you copy and paste what you have in both your layout templates? I'll try to see if it happens for me too, or if its just a typo somewhere.

its ok it really isn't a big deal, ill set it back so that the website one is stretched slightly looks fine that way... thanks for all the help though I love the fact people can click a link to my members website right from the member list its perfect
