solved Celebrity Skin Biography

Some of my members use the CELEBRITY SKIN
and like this skin very much but don’t like it don’t show the full contents you have to click READ FULL BIOGRAPHY to see whats there.

In fact i was able to sort this one for Follow Me.

My Members like to add auto playing videos and stuff into Info

and would like there friends to see it when they go to there profile page

I know some skins do show it but this one don't

Is there away around this to show full contents that is add into INFO

A code would be great and where to add would be very helpful.

Thank you

For the profile bio edit the skin's profile_info.tpl template. At line 29 see this -

Remove the truncate modifier and the 'read more' link -

I done all that does no keep bio open just removes click read full bio

What is the code you have now? Please paste it here, because the instructions are correct.

Did you reset the cache?
ACP -> MODULES -> CORE -> SYSTEM CORE -> TOOLS -> RESET CACHE

Are you sure you're editing the correct template.

Write "CAN YOU SEE THIS??????" in the template, then check it comes out on the page where you expect it to. If it doesn't, you're editing the wrong template.

yes did all the above

I take it im in right place correct template.

Please note its to show full bio info without needing to clicking to see it

Probably stating the obvious but after saving changes did you check the box to tell the system to use this template structure?

@gary yes i did I try it a few times and RESET CACHE

The problem here is that you said you were using the Celebrity skin when in fact FollowMe is set as your active skin and you have made changes to its profile_info.tpl and not Celebrity.
You are also using the ProfileTweaks module and have your profile set to the Celebrity skin. That is why you are not seeing any changes.
Edit the Celebrity profile_info.tpl as described above and you should be good to go.

@Paul Thank you

Yes main skin is Follow me but some members use cele skin on profile pages

OK i taken all on board and i even made Celebrity skin as main skin at the time just so i can see for myself what you are saying and the code did not work like it does for Follow me skin.
I don’t want my follow me skin touch as this has had changes to it and want to keep as it works.

As i understand members can choose a skin for profile page if you allow it ?or am wrong and this is not the case, infact as you said rightly so im using celebrity for my profile page but the main site is using follow me skin is this not the case i can do that?

please see my original message was below

Do this:
* get "WHERE DOES THIS COME OUT???" coming out to the screen before moving on to anything more complicated.

If you cant get that to come out, you're editing in the wrong place.

I done all the above step by step all it does is remove link read full Bio

It does not leave open the bio box to show contents…..

Like it did for me in follow me…

I have now reset the cele to the way it was original.

remove the strip_html

@nate yes wanted Friends Visitors to see the whole bio without them having to click to view it.

Paul's code was good accept remove jrCore_strip_html. If you still don't see it, remove the other modifier.

to prove the point it does not leave the read bio open on profile page it just removes the link!

I've just set your Celebrity and FollowMe skins to show the full bio exactly how was outlined above, and it seems to be working.
Let me know if it looks ok to you.
Thanks

@paul thank you Spot on now working awesome

Can there be made wider or dose it have to stay that small on Profile Pages …Profile Biography i mean when it shows on profile pages …..Be cool if was 400px wide would be good,If i can i give a good try lol…No big deal if they can’t
If i know where to change…
Thank you

You have total control over your site. If its not wide enough, the issue is probably CSS. Adjusting something in your skins CSS files found at:

/skins/YOUR SKIN/css/(any of the files in here).css

will effect how your site looks.
