Solved Placing the user's profile information above the post

Post by Eman and Kou February 7th 2013, 4:59 am

Hey guys it's been awhile! So yeah got back into coding and i'm working on a pet project and hit a snag. I want to do something similar to this: http://swordartonline.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=clarkswood&action=display&thread=8085 (Scroll down to see how the user information is displayed) on my forums. Now I'm using Punbb because quite frankly it's the most underrated version of them all and tinkering with it is quite fun, however I hit a proverbial snag with the CSS. I located the tags that manage the profile information however the only way to move it so far has when I changed this:

Code:
.pun .post .user {
   float: right;
   margin-right: -16em;
   margin-top: -1.8em;
   position:relative;
   }

To this:

Code:
.pun .post .user {
   float: top;
   margin-right: -16em;
   margin-top: -1.8em;
   position:fixed;
   }

However when it does move it sits on the forum itself kind like a higher layer instead of being on the forums layer. So if anyone else knows how to do this or tests it out themselves let me know, I'll continue to mess around with it myself to see if any other tags move it and if I do find a solution I'll change the topic to solved.

Have you tried this with the templates?

Not yet I haven't I actually thought about doing it next, but it seemed more logical that it would be controlled through the CSS spreadsheet.

EDIT: Okay so I remembered something of an update Forumotion did a year or two back where they placed the profiles positioning in the general section so is there a way to like turn that off completely? That would probably help the process out a little bit since apparently I can still move it from left to right when i'm deciding it's position in the topic, but the background bar won't follow.

EDIT 2: Here's an example of the current look for reference, I have the profiles set to the left in the general tab but in the css I have them floating to the right of the post: http://sao-mcinc.rpg-boards.com/t15-yukinayuki-konahana

Also side note of the edit: Current tinkering with the templates does not change the positioning of the profile in the post.

Same error message, I think it's because were removing a tag or two hold on let me test this.

EDIT: It was us removing a tag, you forgot to put the

Ah I think I noticed it. If I moved this part of the code:

                    </div>

Back above the profile information would it move it back down or would it basically put me back to square 1?

Blah, so how would i be able to move both above the post without fubaring it? Like i'm thinking that if I could get rid of the default profile information placement I would be able to do it, but it seems to be hard coded into the forum so I can't change the placement. And tips or tricks or insight into that or should I just be happy with what I got now?

So how would we go about removing the one on the left so instead of having 2 profile bars, it would just be the on the top and then you'd have the post right below it.
