Can anyone please tell us how we get over the following

We have our side profiles / avatars on the left side, but the Online icon shows on the far right of each post, (as in pic below)
can we move this to the left with the avatar? if so how please?



Many Thanks

You can yes.

For PHP BB2 You can go into "Admin Panel > Display > Templates - general > viewtopic_body" and then change

Code:

<span class="postdetails poster-profile">
            {postrow.displayed.POSTER_RANK}<br />
            {postrow.displayed.RANK_IMAGE}{postrow.displayed.POSTER_AVATAR}<br /><br />
            <!-- BEGIN profile_field -->
            {postrow.displayed.profile_field.LABEL} {postrow.displayed.profile_field.CONTENT}{postrow.displayed.profile_field.SEPARATOR}
            <!-- END profile_field -->
            {postrow.displayed.POSTER_RPG}
         </span>


To

Code:

<span class="postdetails poster-profile">
            {postrow.displayed.POSTER_RANK}<br />
            {postrow.displayed.RANK_IMAGE}{postrow.displayed.POSTER_AVATAR}<br />
{postrow.displayed.ONLINE_IMG}<br /><br />
            <!-- BEGIN profile_field -->
            {postrow.displayed.profile_field.LABEL} {postrow.displayed.profile_field.CONTENT}{postrow.displayed.profile_field.SEPARATOR}
            <!-- END profile_field -->
            {postrow.displayed.POSTER_RPG}
        </span>


That will put the online image just under the users avatar. You could then change the image to something like If you wanted to make it look a little more tidy.

Thanks for taking the time to reply

Were using phpBB3 can this still be done?

No sorry. As PHP BB3 doesn't have access to template changing, you will not be able to do this Sad

For future reference, it would be helpful if you could add your forum link and your forum version in the "Profile" section in the navigation just to make getting the correct answers easier.

Thanks did put phpBB3 in my profile

So its stuck on the right, really? no way at all to change?

OF COURSE you can change the location of the online indicator!!! It's nothing more than CSS. For a phpBB3 board, add this to your CSS, and you should have what you want.

Code:
.online {background-image:none;}
.online .postprofile dt {margin-bottom: 3px; padding-bottom: 17px; background-image: url(http://illiweb.com/fa/subsilver/icon_online_en.gif); background-position: 0% 100%; background-repeat: no-repeat;}

Please note that by doing this, the online indicator image can only be changed in the CSS. The online indicator icon in ACP Pics Management will be ignored.

Thanks will give it a try and get back to you, lets hope it works Smile

Excellent, thank you! It's now beneath the avatar, looks so much better. I don't understand why forumotion doesn't have it set like this by default, it just seems like every little thing you want to do, involves asking questions and trying to source code? Not having a pop at forumotion, just gets frustrating at times Smile
