Post Backgrounds

[Todge]

This plugin allows forum members to have a background image to their posts.

Go to your profile page > Edit > Settings and there should now be another option above the 'Default BBCode' option that allows you to enter an image URL and set a default text color, with a 'Preview' button to make it easier to set a color that matches.

Within the plugin settings you have the option to have the background image cover only the post itself, or extend it to cover the entire post row, including behind the mini-profile and signature etc.

Library Version 0.0.9

It is meant to. If it didn't stretch the image would either be repeated to fill the cell, or you'd end up with a border around the image.

I'll add an option to set the background more to your liking.

 im just saying it looks alittle odd and messy with a stretched image and i could bet my members prob wont use it.

on option would be better imh.

still a good plugin though

The plugin did originally have an option to choose one of 4 ways the backgrounds can be displayed, but after seeing the results of the other options I removed it. I will put that option back.

Can you please try version 0.0.2.

You should now have an extra option to choose one of 4 ways that the background image can be displayed.

edit:

looks pretty cool though lol.

[Former Member]

Todge im good with this thanks, the plugins great so im going to leave it on the setting iv got.

fyi ... one of the settings (i forget which ) makes the image go fixed in every other post, and only shows how its supposed to in the other post, if this makes sense

but im good here, my new members using it and me.



edit:  actually theres this bit of the mini profile border on the right which dissapears 

its no big problem and  im happy to leave it, but if it can be fixed easily that would be better.

other than that im good

I did tell you it had some strange effects...



As for the right border disappearing, that's a browser anomaly (IE) and there's little I can do to the plugin to rectify it, but you can prevent it from happening by shifting the mini-profile to the right by 2 pixels..

Add this to your forum's CSS..

.mini-mini-profile { position: relative; right: 2px; }
