Title: User Profile boxes beside posts
Post by: leofe92 on December 27, 2014, 04:06:14 PM
Hi all,
I have just set up my forum but the profile beside each post looks really cluttered and has multiple boxes with lots of details,  when I would rather just have Username, Member group, posts and avatar displayed in a single box nice and clean.

I believe I would need to edit the display template? But Im unsure what to do to it.

Pic attached

Thankyou!

You really are going to have to ask the author of the theme that you are using, since that is not the default theme...  But yes, the edits will have to be done in display.template.php

Something like this

Might suit your needs ;)
Although, depending on your theme, it might or not work directly, as mods are only required to work with default theme

This will make the postbit be in a nice curved box: http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3932

Thankyou for all the help so far.  I installed the mod suggested by ahrasis which put a box around all of the boxes but removed it as it did not look right with my theme.  Margarret the mod you suggested looks nice but I prefer the info to be on the left beside the post but thankyou.

I just want the mini profile beside the posts to look like how it does on here - would anyone be able to assist me with this please?

For that you really need to ask the theme author ;)

Agreed. Dziner Studio is the place that you should refer to. That is his theme, right?

It is a variation of one of his themes, I think it has been edited by someone else.

I have posted on the Dzinerstudio forum though

EDIT: it was edited by this guy http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=2191
however he hasnt been active for 3 years on the SMF forum!  ;D
