Haven't tried that. I usually edit my files via FTP
"There is no god, and that's the simple truth. If every trace of any single religion were wiped out and nothing were passed on, it would never be created exactly that way again. There might be some other nonsense in its place, but not that exact nonsense. If all of science were wiped out, it would still be true and someone would find a way to figure it all out again."

FTP is that with notepad++ or from my hostsite
Yeah, you will need notepad++ to edit files. Download the file (index.template.php) using any FTP client. (I use Filezilla) Edit it with notepad++, save and upload it back to the server.

How do I use FTP? / What is FTP?

make sure the ENTIRE image path you used for your profile fields are correct and link to the image folder you used.

I haven't tried that, but i'm pretty sure you can add almost any social media network for members to add to their profiles with this method.

When I click on the icon at topic. It keeps telling me I'm going to: http://mywebsiteblabla.com/forum/www.facebook.com/heremyfacebookaccount

How can I remove the ''http://mywebsiteblabla.com/forum/''; part?

I'm using your part..

<a href="www.facebook.com/{INPUT}"target="_blank"><img class="section" src="http://mywebsiteblabla/images/facebook.png" title="Facebook" /></a>

What did you input in the profile?

Just my username at Facebook. ..

I fixed it!
I replaced:

<a href="www.facebook.com/{INPUT}"target="_blank"><img class="section" src="http://Mywebsiteblabla.nl/images/facebook.png" title="Facebook" /></a>

With:
<a href="http://facebook.com/{INPUT}"target="_blank"><img class="section" src="http://Mywebsiteblabla.nl/images/facebook.png" title="Facebook" /></a>

So the www. should be http:// :)

Thanks for this tip!
