Mistaken For A King: Help?

[jyuchii]

i'm having trouble with the option of changing the picture on the side of someone's post.. 
the "200x300" pictures. 
how to upload/change it into a picture?
how are members supposed to do that? (if at all?)
the theme is "mistaken for a king"

Since the theme creator has not provided a support thread (at least not one that is publicly linked to), I can only provide a few guesses.


Have you gone to your account profile > edit > settings and looked at any custom profile fields to see if there is one for an avatar image? You will have to upload it to an external host like photobucket in order to use it.

sadly i've checked and i don't see anything that allows me to input a link for the picture.
i see the actual code in the css for the avatar image, but nothing to change it on the actual theme.

Would it be possible for you to provide a link to your site with this theme set as default? I can't find a live preview or anything for it, so I'd have to see it in action to try and figure it out.

Quite honestly, I'm not entirely sure how to replace it. Looking at the HTML, it looks like the image is definitively defined via in-line style here:

<div class="miniprofilebgimg" style=" background-image: url('https://placeholdit.imgix.net/~text?txtsize=33&txt=200%C3%97300&w=200&h=300'); background-size:cover;">
</div>

If you go to admin > structure > layout templates > mini profile, are you able to find that URL that I bolded? If so, can you tell me if there's any other content there, such as a variable for a custom profile field value?

sorry i don't know hardly anything about coding, but i do see the link and that there's a custom profile part of the code near the link



<div class="miniprofilestructure">



<div class="miniprofilebgimg" style=" background-image: url('https://placeholdit.imgix.net/~text?txtsize=33&txt=200%C3%97300&w=200&h=300');{foreach $[user.mini_custom_field]}{if $[user.mini_custom_field.name] == "200x300 Hover Image"}background-image: url('$[user.mini_custom_field.value]');{/if}{/foreach}background-size:cover;"></div>    



<div class="miniprofileframe"></div>    







<div class="miniprofilebg">



<div class="miniprofilename">



{if !$[user.is_member]} Guest {else} $[user] {/if}</div>



<br> <div class="onlinestatustext">Is {if $[user.is_online]}Online{else}Offline{/if}</div></div>



   im not sure if this helps?

Yes that helps! It looks like there IS a custom profile field that you need to make.

{if $[user.mini_custom_field.name] == "200x300 Hover Image"}

Make a custom profile field called 200x300 Hover Image
You should be able to then link to an image in it, and it will work (:

Creator here! Sorry, I didn't know that the theme had been posted. Where would I post a support thread for it? Kami

Theme library subboard! Title it with the name of the theme, then link to the library post (:

Including documentation about where to change things like the avatar etc would be super helpful.

Hey, I'm having the same problem with the same theme - except I can't find those lines of code that OP pointed out to fix in order to change the bigger profile picture. It's as though they don't exist for some reason? I need help finding them so I can change the code like he did please?

To elaborate and hopefully to get more help with my issue - my code under admin -> themes -> layout templates -> mini profile starts with this line of code:

"<div class="$[miniprofile_class]">

$[user]<br />

{if $[user.is_guest]}Guest<br />{/if}

{if $[user.is_deleted]}<em>Deleted Member</em><br />{/if}

{if $[user.group]}

$[user.group.name]<br />$[user.group.stars]<br />

{elseif $[user.rank]}

$[user.rank.name]<br />

{if $[user.rank.stars]}

$[user.rank.stars]<br />

{/if}

{/if}"

I don't know why my code has none of the lines that OP has, and I didn't change anything about this part of the code (like deleting or anything) so I'm completely confused. I've also looked at other parts of the profile "layout templates" such as micro profile hoping it was just misplaced and it wasn't.

I know you know where the theme thread is since you posted in it

support.proboards.com/thread/608293/mistaken-king?page=1#post-6915731

Ask your question from the theme creator there, they are the best person to help you with your query. It looks like you need a new copy of the theme tbh, as this has been reset to default.
