Level Up Meter [library support]

[Wormopolis]

ok.. so what we have here is some weirdness.

first off, you dont need this:

<span style="levelBar"></span>

the code adds that on its own.


second, you have some CSS somewhere that looks like this:

.profilemini div {
display: inline-block;
}

that is wrecking havoc on how the bar is displayed. so you need to add this into your CSS underneath where you have that other one

div.levelBar table div {display:block}

thirdly, you nested two div with class='mini-profile'

so the code is actually running twice. it looks for a div with that class and puts the bar in. since you have it wice, one inside the other, it is doing exactly what its supposed to do. you really dont need to have the nested divs. just leave the classname on the outer one.

Does this (div.levelBar table div {display:block}) go within

.profilemini div {
display: inline-block;
}

or beneath it. I tried both, neither seemed to make a difference. I think I removed that second mini-profile classname, it was mini_profile though.

Sorry, I know next to nothing about coding, most of this stuff came the way it is.

Thanks for this upgrade! Is there any way to change the font size for the text below the status bar?

I don't know what's happened, but the level meter just appeared after I backspaced out of editing a post.. Hopefully it doesn't go anywhere.

everything resides in a span class="levelBar", so you can add into your CSS

span.levelBar {font-size:18px}

and it should hit it.  if not, you might have to add some more selectors on there to give it specificity (Eton taught me that word)

looking at the markup and CSS everything is exactly what I suggested in my post.  you might have just needed to do a cache refresh.  but it seems to be tracking correctly now.

Is there a way to change the content of the text below the gauge (not the style), such as getting rid of that pesky period at the end of the current rank message?

EDIT: It isn't showing up on my profile summary page btw, should it?

[Wormopolis]

The text is hard coded, so I would have to edit the plugin to make it change.

It currently doesnt show on summary page, mainly because I just never got around to it. it would involve the same kind of things where post count would have to be present on the summary page.

[Rennat]

I have a general question, then. On some plugins, I'm allowed to go into build mode, which helps me change what I need in terms of stuff like that, that hasn't been given an edit option in the plugin itself. Why do some plugins allow users to build them and others don't?

[Wormopolis]

because I want control over what the users change. too many times in V4 people would make changes to the codes without knowing what they were doing and screw it all up. then they would come back to the support boards with "It doesnt work". then after a dozen questions they would admit that they made some sort of edit. so personally, I would rather not deal with the situation.

Is it possible to make the current level rank appear below the bar ? Currently, it's not possible to tell what level you are at unless you hover over the bar.

[Wormopolis]

Yep. look in the settings.

[rohan]

This is what I get when I enable "Next level below bar". It only shows the amount of posts needed to get to the next level, it doesn't show the name of the current level.



And this is "Current status below bar". It shows both the current and next levels, but it looks conjusted.



Is it possible to make the format like this :-

Current Level Name
Level Bar
Next Level Name by No. of posts.

As an example, it will look like :-

Ray Of Hope
Level Bar
Legend by 1000 posts.

well it would require rewriting it. and then the next person will want the wording different. then the next. then the next.

Ill think about it.
