Something on the profile page of others...

[Valcav]

Hello,

The following thing I first discovered on my test-site...
I know that the example in the picture is extreme, but it just shows what the little problem is...



Does anyone know how I/we could make it so that if it would show like that, that it shows that text on the next line... (and maybe also in a kind of button instead of just text...)
When you look on your own profile you have a button to "Customize your profile"...

I know I probably should post this on vBulletin itself,
but to be honest, I love it more to be around here

Friendly greetings,
Valcav

I do not see this like it on my site when my window is small
Maybe your theme?

but you could simply add <br/> in a template (probably not the best way to fix it)

try it with this site...
the screen-shot was take from this site, FF6, profile different than myself...

 

[DxtGaming]

Oh I was looking a different tab I think


Go to "memberinfo_block_visitormessaging" template and add "<br />" or "<br /><br />"

Depend how you want it

 

[Valcav]

thanks, that did the trick on my test site...
but now I'll need to look around again in my styles to fix a little style problem... (but that will be for later when I've got more time...)

I notice this along time ago and I find it comes and goes but a fix would be awesome.
and vbulletin would have said to come here...It's more fun to hang out with dragons

It has to due with all the extra tabs in the profile, best way for now is to due like DXT said, use the <br />

 

[GoodApples]

Oh I was looking a different tab I think


Go to "

memberinfo_block_visitormessaging

" template and add "<br />" or "<br /><br />"

Depend how you want it

then find

<div class="subsectionhead border">

next add <br /> at the end...so it looks like this

<div class="subsectionhead border"><br />

well that is what I did

 

[Ozzy47]

OK in your Member Info Templates/memberinfo_block_visitormessaging template find this:

<form name="vbform" id="message_form" method="post" action="visitormessage.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=message">

Usually the third line down.

And add the <br><br> after the >

So it looks like this:

<form name="vbform" id="message_form" method="post" action="visitormessage.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=message"><br><br>

Before:

After:

That should solve the problem, you can add more <br> or less, depending on how ya like it.

If you want it to show up in the editor like in the screenshot do this.

In CSS Templates/member.css find this bit of code, usually at the bottom of the template:

.vm_other_prof #view_my_conversation_link {
    margin-top:-25px;
}

Change it to this:

.vm_other_prof #view_my_conversation_link {
    margin-top:0px;
}

The result is this.

I like that better this way than the previous way.

Very nice Thanks!

 

[Ozzy47]

Not a problem, I think vB should set the margin-top: to 0 anyway, with all the mods that add a tab to the user profile.

Thanks for that Ozzy,
It currently works on the default style...
But at the moment it doesn't work on my own style...
I think I need to redo my whole style...

 

[Ozzy47]

It will work on any style that uses traditional formatting, if it is a custom skin that someone made and did not follow the traditional formatting, then it may be able to be changed elsewhere.

So I must have broke it somewhere
Because I started my style with the Default style (copied Default into new style, or whatever). And went step by step editing to have it my way...

------------
(Maybe I'm going a little bit off-topic, but just want to try to make sure you know how my style got form & his structure)
And recently I asked via a Ticket on vbulletin.com how to get my style (from my test-site) copied/integrated into my site that I want to be live (the vbulletin manual isn't the same as what I can see (probably still for vB3.x), so it is unclear for me...). And how I could make it so that all my changed styles on mods/products also would be applied on my live site... After a few replies, I +- gave up... Still not 100% clear... Then went to vb.org and asked it there... there they were saying that it couldn't be much more clearer than in the vb-manual...

Anyway, in one of the replies on my ticket they said that he/she said that he/she had a style called "Layout" as parent style, and that can't be chosen by the members. and under that the styles that members can choose... (like the Default style, ...), So I made that style and moved my Default & TDO style in it... so now, Layout is parent of Default and TDO style...

I didn't looked much into it because I +- want to have my new site up and running asap
But after today I +- start looking around and make/made some changes...
1) changes that were made in the Default and TDO style, I copied that into the Layout style, and reverted it in Default & TDO style, so that those 2 styles inherit it from the Layout Style...
----------
Sorry if it sounds a little bit confusing...
I'm somebody that has difficulties to get the wording right...

EDIT: And now I'm going to look for a good manual on how to make a own style in vB4.x (best for vB4.1.5 and higher)
