Mini Mods - STEAM Profile/Status Display

[S]This is something that will give your users an ability to view member's status for their STEAM account. Offline/online/games playing/etc.

You can find an example here:

http://forums.tf2maps.net/

Just look at any thread and find a post. The widget should be in the upper right hand corner of the post.

Nothing has to be installed on your server.

Step 1
Create a custom user profile field. Name it Steam ID.

Single-Line Text Box  	Editable, Searchable, Members List

Find what your field id is. It should look something like fieldx where x is the number.

Step 2
Plug your field id in to the following code

<if condition="$post['fieldx']"><iframe src="http://steamprofile.com/profile/default/sphtml.php?id=$post[fieldx]" align="right" width="254" height="48" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" frameborder="0"></iframe></if>

Make sure to change x to your id.

Step 3
Place the code in step 2 that has been changed to reflect your profile field after

$template_hook[postbit_messagearea_start]
		<if condition="$show['messageicon'] OR $post['title']">
			<!-- icon and title -->
			<div class="smallfont">

in your postbit or postbit_legacy (depending on what you use) template[/S]

If you would just like to have the options of having the status as sigs, visit http://steamprofile.com

we will be adding different styles to the widget for better integration in to a dark style. please check back soon for this.

It doesnt seem to attach to every post I have. It is on some of my old posts but not all, its really random. It would be nice if it could fit on the left side in postbit legacy but its max width would need to be changed.

Something like that for profiles would be a great addition!

Is it possible to make the style of the widget customisable?

Mainly the colours, as the default gray looks very out of place on light backgrounds. On tf2maps it is their colour, how can we change this? (Or have I just missed something simple)

hi,

we are currently working on makeing the colors customizable for choosing in the submission form. right now its just a basic 'steam-style' widget.

Ok, I finally got it working, however its hard to place it like the way you guys did it on the forums...oh my!

[JVSacco]

Very nice. Installed.

I appear to be clueless on this. Is x my Steam community ID? Where do I make these edits? I see nothing on where or how to make the adjustments. Will I have to do this for all members or does this setup the ability for forum members to add themselves? I am a bit green making tweaks like this so I apologize in advance. I do like that in your forums though.


Finally got the point and installed. It doesn't look as good on my theme as yours but since the whole site is due for renovation this summer this will be an important addition.
