Profile Enhancements - Custom Member Page Background

Right so I've been wanting a way for my members to customize their own page just a bit more than the usual. I've attached the image of the example.

Example:


Template Mods etc:
Go to MEMBERINFO and find:

$header

add below:

<div id="profilebg">

Then find:

$navbar

add below:

<div id="stylingpage">

Save now head over to memberinfo_css.

Add this code wherever you'd like after the style codes:

#profilebg{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: url($userinfo[field5]);
}

^^Once you have the profile field done change the field5 to your own field number.


and if you want opacity:

div#stylingpage{
opacity:0.8;
}

^^ Edit the opacity number if you'd like, just my preference.

After the template mods are finished head over to Add New User Profile Field in your admincp and add a single-line text box.

My settings:
Title: Profile Background
Description: Add a custom background to your profile!
Extra Stuff:


I have the location in my Edit Your Details section of the UserCp. Anyone can edit their own page background at any time.

Have fun =)

I would like to have only certain usergroups benefit from this. Can it be done?

For this all your members have to do is enter the image url, such as http://www.blah.com/blah.jpg

Yes unless you set it to usergroups only.

All you guys have to do is go into your edit your details after following all my instructions and then add an image url so your background is that image.

Put the usergroup codes in front of

<div id="profilebg">
