Plugin/Profile HTML/CSS Questions

is it possible to move code that you put into your Profile/Mini Profile Template and then move it into a Plugin that you're creating and have it still effect the Profile/Mini Profile?

I assume the answer is "yes", I just wanted to double check before I did anything

Thank you!

Also, could I possibly get help with the JavaScript that (I assume) would be needed here? I am a visual learner and I can't really find any of the code I need on w3schools or Codecademy or anything along those lines.

Thank you in advance -- I don't mean to whine if that's what it sounds like I'm doing lol. I'm just not as proficient in JavaScript as I am in HTML/CSS. I took a few steps on Codecademy for JavaScript, but, for some reason, what I put into one area of it won't work... anyway, I gave up on it before I went insane because most of what I was doing there wouldn't really help me create a Plugin (yet), and went on to get my HTML/CSS certification.

Anyway, sorry for the rambling. I appreciate any help/gentle nudges in the 'right' direction that anyone would like to give.

Thank you again!

Oops, Brian, I think I put this into the wrong area. Would you mind moving it for me, please? Thanks!

I'm going to say yes, probably, but you'd have to be far more specific about what it is you're trying to do.

I want to (attempt) to clean up my templates by creating a Plugin that I can use to manipulate my templates.

Much like the Plugin here on Support that 'created' the mini profiles for the winners of the MP Design Contest.

Just my thoughts:
Doing a mini-profile by template is much quicker than trying to do it via plugin. I'm not sure why you'd want to 'clean' up your templates with a plugin.
As this is the development board. What have you tried?  Just realised this is in the request board. Is this a request or are you developing a plugin?
Just about every bit of code for a plugin can be found on W3Schools and code academy.

As I create member groups, I will be putting more and more code into the mini profile template and, eventually, will come to a character limit. I wanted to do it this way to make it so I don't get to a limit. Plus, most of what I want to do is only for staff, and I want to have the basic mini profile for the members.

I'm developing a Plugin. thought I was on the development board.

So far, this is the code I have for the JavaScript:

$(function() {
$(function() {


I'm not really sure where to start. I put in a few different things with JavaScript like the variables I have, but other than that, my mind is blank. I attempted JavaScript on Codecademy, but I can't get past one area where I attempt to put in the code and it says that it's wrong. I don't know what keywords to use to search for what I want, and when I try to search, much like when I'm trying to search for Plugins in the Plugin Library, things don't come up. I'm not sure why, though. My only thought is because I'm not searching 'correctly'?
