socialteenz, did you had time to look for the song list to add in your hack like i asked before?

Members don't seem to find the way to go on KIWI, upload and paste into their page!! I know, lazyness....lollll

So if we, admin could upload a few songs and add them in some choice window, it would probably make this easier on them ?!?!

Tks anyway, i like my page, it rocks

Hey, sorry for the wait!! I looked but didn't have enough time to find a solution!! My college life drives me NUT!! It's TERRIBLE. I am sorry, i am running out of ideas. I hope some one can look in to this!!

Thanks

Thanks for your understanding.

Thank you very much for the mod and help with the setup!

[Omniverse]

Firstly thank you so much for this mod. I've nominated for mod of the month about 5 minutes into the future... This is where you could upgrade:

Firstly, as usual, a coder assumes the user knows certain things. And I don't fault you for that, it's very hard to understand cluelessness from an informed/knowledgeable PoV. Being a clueless person about VB code etc myself, Ttis is what you could change in your OP:

instead of saying change field x to your field number, which could mean a lot of different things, specify how to do that Exactly. This is where I got screwed up.

Firstly, you put TWO x's, and said change field x. So that confused me. "Do I change one x or two?" The red color helped in that area but I did ponder that when finding it not work right.

Secondly, you put replace field x with a space. I was trying to read between the lines a bit. I put "Field 5", and that did not work.

Also, if you want to make this mod more user friendly to install, please include a small description of what a field is and how to get the field number. you get the field number by going to your field editor and it shows you the field number for all of them. This is how I figured out the right code, which was NOT Field 5 or Field5x or simply 5 (you did say replace field x with your field number, so naturally i replaced both field and the x's with my field number) ,....

it was field5 (5 was just the field i added it in to users installing this mod so yours may be like 3 or 7 etc).

So just trying to help your mod reach more people, if you integrate these into your hack description, it will help out the ease of installing for people like me who use only logic and no experience with a vb forum(which btw i LOVE).

Next, I need to do this: Center the "My Profile Song" to be centered above the song. Not a big deal, but it's aesthetically pleasing to me and is a small upgrade. I could assume it's just a simple center code of html, but Im a pretty big noob at coding etc and something that simple could screw everything up in VB code in my clueless logic, so I figure I will ask how (plz), and also suggest you implement this into your OP coding.

Another suggestion to implement into your coding, is this modification I made(and i really do recommend it because most users have no clue what to do to the profile option, so this would help ease of use):

Change the description to: "To add a more personalization to your profile, you may add a song. To do this, enter the full URL of the song in this field. We do not host the song for you, so you will have to upload it somewhere yourself." Or you can word it however you like, but that is what I put it on my forum. Many users will not know what to do with that blank text space. So this is a bar none upgrade to your instructions. I hope you do not take this as you being flawed !! Pretty much everything can be upgraded And I whole heartedly am thankful for this mod.

Peace

Thank you
By default it should be centered!
I tried my best to make it sample, if you still have problems pm me, I will install this on your site!!

Thanks for the offer, but I don't feel comfortable giving someone access to my forum's admin panel without knowing them a good bit or a scenario you probably wouldn't believe so I'll censor myself :P. I will just leave it how it is.

Here is a display of my profile if you want to look at how it's working. I will change profiles to not be viewable by guests in a few days(or somewhere around there). Perhaps you can suggest something? My intuition tells me you would not do something to my site, and it would be fine. Regardless, I have to be careful given the company that lurks around me and the importance(to me anyway) of what I have on my site.....
