Ultimate Profile
« on: Fri, 12 July 2013, 10:59:18 »
You may have noticed some changes to your user profile page.  I've integrated some nice enhancements that you can configure via "Ultimate Profile" in your profile settings.  Once enabled, you can share a description of yourself, your keyboards, your projects, pictures, etc.  You can also add buddies and other users can leave comments on your profile.

Enjoy!

Could you possibly link to or explain how to get there? I've spent much time in the settings, but I can't seem to find that option...

Oh, that is what is used to limit classifieds posting.  I removed it from the old profile and I'll probably do the same here.

Not sure about the buddies thing.  I'll take a look.

Keep reporting bugs and I'll sort them out soon.  The package is a little long-in-the-tooth, but is the best I could find for SMF.  I fixed all of the obvious problems, but I guess I didn't try everything.

OK, so to add a buddy you are supposed to go to that person's profile and click "Add to Buddy List" under "Contact Me".

It would not appear so, but you can disable them with "Disable new comments notification".

Can we have something which shows you which button to press to accept a buddy request? Its kinda hard to work out which one it is, without hovering over each of the options?

I think the intent is to do it more like a blog post, but a "reply with quote" option would be nice.

Is there any way to add Overclock.net-style rig-builder-like function to be able to be more descriptive about our keyboard projects?  For example, I'd like to write a blurb for each of my keyboards with photos--like a "build log", and it'd be best to have a dedicated section rather than link a thread from elsewhere.

There's an entire section called "Interests". Couldn't you just put it there? Or under "Media" where it even supports HTML/CSS?

I saw that, but the edit window is small (thought could be increased), so it looked like it's for something concise.  If it's okay to put longer stuff there, that's cool then!

The size limit is 65,535 characters, so you should be good.  I tested really long posts there and they worked fine.  The only issue was that the section displays in its entirety without scroll bars.  That is something I could add if they get too unwieldy.

OK, I've reimplemented the "Add Buddies" feature to the buddies list and fixed some UI issues in there.  The way old buddies were stored is wildly different that the new ones, so unfortunately anyone using that feature will need to re-add those people.  Sorry about that.

I guess I'm bad at HTML and if I can't figure it out in 30 minutes, I don't care. Maybe add some bbcode? Because it was frustrating. Sorry I'm bad at computers.

It should support BBcode, though I haven't tried it.

To put an image in there with HTML, you would:
