Description of problem

Hey, there,

I was wondering if it's possible to change the layout of RPG sheets on forum version phpbb3 like the ones on phpbb2? I love everything about phpbb3 except the way the RPG sheets are displayed. I am wondering if there is a way to make it the same as they are displayed on version phpbb2. I have tried editing the templates to make them look the same, but... unfortunately keep failing. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

No, I think you misunderstood me. Not the display in the profile details on the posts, the actual display of them on the profile.

Here is a sheet from phpbb3:

And here is one from phpbb2:

In my own personal opinion, I like the phpbb2's version display better than they have for phpbb3. I love the version phpbb3 though cause on how updated it is compared to phpbb2, but the only thing I don't like is the RPG sheet display. That is why I am trying to make it the same display as phpbb2.

Are you using the advanced profile?

by Draxion August 24th 2016, 10:29 pm

Not sure what that means, but I do believe so if that sheet can accessed by simply clicking on their usernames.

To me the issue is not the RPG page, but the design of the theme of your forum. It looks like the designer added something to cause the right side to be further down the page. Also the avatar is not in the same spot.

I have tested on multiple phpbb3 forums and it's the same problem, unfortunately.

by **SLGray** August 25th 2016, 10:53 pm

You mean the right side being further down the page?

by Draxion August 25th 2016, 10:54 pm

Well that, and just the display being horrible compared to phpbb2. That's why I am seeking assistance to try and match the display.

Have you tried modifying the template: rpg_sheet?

by Draxion August 25th 2016, 11:03 pm

Yeah, I have but it doesn't save the layout to the site oddly enough so I gave up and came here to get some advice or help.

by **SLGray** August 25th 2016, 11:09 pm

Did you publish the modified template?

by Draxion August 25th 2016, 11:10 pm

I did, yes, but then when I gave up, I returned it back to the default one.
