Customizing the 'Personal Information' page.

Involved Joined: Aug 06, 2005 Posts: 301

I am trying to customize the registered users 'Personal Information' page, located in their account.

I have found the associated Lanuage files to modify text, but I am not able to locate the 'strucure' file associated with this page, in order to relocate the text and where it is displayed.

Please advise.

Structure file? You can use Crimson Editor to find in files using Ctrl-Shift-F. You can search for the define constant you change in the modules/Your_Account directory (make sure to check the option to search subdirectories, as much of the CNB code is in the includes directory).

By structure file, I mean that although I can change some text in the associated language file, there are certain things that cannot be changed there.......

For example, in the 'Extra Info:' filed, it says '(255 characters max)' then after that it has more additional text. I want the additional text to appear before '(255 characters max)' and that 'ordering' is done in another 'structure' file...(ie a file that builds that page/module and brings those elements together.

So where is that file located?

In CNB you can find that in modules/Your_Account/public/

According to Crimson's "Find in Files" function, there are 3 locations for the _255CHARMAX definition being used:
modules/YHour_Account/public/activate.php
modules/YHour_Account/public/edituser.php
modules/YHour_Account/public/new_user3.php

The nice thing about using that function is that you can click on the search result and Crimson will open the file and position the cursor to the search location. Very efficient.

Thanks Kevin,

I don't yet have Crimson on this PC...I did install it the other day on my other machine...You will recall and it has proved extremely useful, particularly more recently in finding an error in my Nuke Royal installation.

Thanks guys!!!.....

You can find Crimson Editor Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login!. I'm looking at some other great editors, but I haven't found anything that makes it this easy to find and edit.
