Theme Color Change Problem & a Suggestion

Quote from guclu on September 30, 2017, 6:44 pm

Actually I noticed I don’t need a complicated, custom url for every other user. Just this link for EVERY user: https://www.catcryptobot.com/your-profile/

in the place as seen in the picture. How can I add that?

 

edit: I also noticed that even if a user clicks on his/her own profile, it lands on the public id format of the profile for everyone. Such as: …/?view=profile&id=2

So that would make it a bit of a problem probably, no?

To do this you just have to add this code to your themes functions.php file:

add_action ('asgarosforum_custom_profile_content' , 'my_function_asgaros_profile' , 10 , 1) ;
function my_function_asgaros_profile ($ author_id) { 
  echo 'your link here' ;
}

add a link 🙂

Thanks for all the quick replies… I just tried that and adding it breaks my site somehow.

Here’s the full functions.php of my theme with your codes added at the bottom: https://pastebin.com/TpAwMYwT

It just become unaccesible with that. And everything is back to normal once it’s removed.

Am I doing something wrong?

This works 🙂

add_action ('asgarosforum_custom_profile_content' , 'my_function_asgaros_profile' , 10 , 1) ;
function my_function_asgaros_profile ($author_id) {
  echo '<a href="https://www.catcryptobot.com/your-profile/" target="_blank">text</a>';
}

Oh finally… Thank you 🙂

But this brought up the below problem as I’ve mentioned; it appears in everyones profile page :)) but it is not a problem to attend immediately, this’ll do for now…

You can do your own theme

Hi,

First let me thank you for the most simple, most straightforward, easiest to control forum plugin of them all.  I have been reading this thread with interest. Let me tell you what I did.

First I edited style.css until I was happy with it.  Then I created the custom theme dir and copied all (4) of the required css files into it, including the style.css that I edited, into a subdir I named skin-mod.  I’ll replace the contents of the default skins dir with clean unmodified files after I’ve worked everything out.

The Options page now had a dropdown list containing the skin-mod theme. Great! I selected it then looked at the forum page.  Wo!  All the color choices I made had been replaced with something pretty ugly.  I don’t get it.  These are the exact same (4) css files that work well in the skin dir, but now they fail in the skin-mod dir.

Obviously, there is something I do not understand.  What am I missing?

Thanks.

Hello Ed G.

Can you try to reload your page with CTRL + F5? Maybe the new files are not loaded correctly. Otherwise please provide a link to your website so I can check the CSS files in your source code.

Hello guclu

You can try to add some user-ID check first before the link is generated. For example:

add_action ('asgarosforum_custom_profile_content' , 'my_function_asgaros_profile' , 10 , 1) ;
function my_function_asgaros_profile ($author_id) {
  if ($author_id = get_current_user_id()) {
    echo '<a href="https://www.catcryptobot.com/your-profile/" target="_blank">text</a>';
  }
}
