Very cool idea indeed... but newbies may end up having tables everywhere on the screen - the problem with absolute positioning is that it doesn't take into account the monitor size, size of the content of the table - there is bound to be overlap etc.

Yes, I agree a little CSS could be a lot dangerous.

But you could still consider the separate <div>'s, just position them in-line, then us CSS experts [cough...] could choose to change the positioning if we want to.

If a newbie messes up their page too much, they could delete any CSS they added, essentially resetting their homepage.

I use IE and it all looks fine to me - please provide screenshots if something is not looking right. :)

Yes, this is a merge of the profile and CF custom homepage - into the one page. :)
Your homepage looked okay in my browser which is Firefox, but in my homepage the health bar juts far into the space where my profile photo would go if I had one. Also the armor lists are squished in Firefox (but not in IE as you know).

PS I don't know how to do a screen shot, but I can learn.

I think I fixed it... yes?

Mmm... it's not hard for me to do at all... You could add CSS to the custom HTML bit of the homepage... How should I code the <div tags? Any recommendations?

Sounds Great! I've got to go right now, I have an appointment, but I'll consider this and post in a few hours.

NEW:

There is a new Profile field - MyCF CSS - go to your UserCP Profile to customise this.

Use CSS to customize the look of your MyCF Homepage - you can change the color of links, add a background image - anything you like!
Examples of CSS tags to use (you can cut and paste and change the HEX values:

body {background: #FFF000}
page {background: #FFF000}
a:link {background: #FFF000}
a:hover, a:active {background: #FFF000}
a:visited {background: #FFF000}
.tcat {background: #FFF000}
.theader {background: #FFF000}
.tborder {background: #FFF000}

If you want to use a image background instead, replace the body line with this (you can use an image that you've attached to a thread):

Body{background-image:url(type the image url here)}

Leave it blank for default. :)

EDIT: Also added the last 5 guestbook entries in there. :)

EDIT: You can now RATE each other's MyCF Homepage!!! :)

I would like to disable the last 5 guestbook entries, the My CF Link with #of views, and especially want to disable the rating system but can't figure out how. I've looked in user options for ways to do this and can't find anything.

It seems that the health bar is a little feisty in Firefox:

How should I code the <div tags? Any recommendations?

I think I have to think about this more. If the tables in the middle of the page are positioned 'absolute', the normal space they occupy would collapse, and the footer would float up.

A quick fix to this might be to place everything between the header and footer in one big <div style="position:relative">, but I'd need to test that.

:confused:

Very cool Erwin. Only thing I see is that the default profile bit stretches the page out for me. I am set at a high resolution too. Is there some way we can fiddle with this to rearrange items to make the fit better?

Either you fixed it or it has resolved itself.

Thanks for everything Erwin! :wave:
