Hello Lee

A user has contacted me to complain about the registraton page:

  •  that I do not have an asterisk as the instructions state on my registation page, ( "All fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required") which they found confusing.

I have looked at my registration form and instead of an asterisk I have an arrow. 

Ok, all I needed to do was to change the text to read arrow instead of asterisk. I have looked on the admin/users/ Manageusers.ascx file and several other files in that folder and I cannot find where to change the text message. 

  •  the "Biography" section  has the toolbar only displayed  (text area hidden) unless the user clicks on the scrolbar, then the toolbar is hidden.

Where do I  set the height of the text area for the "Biography" I can't find it?

  •  sometimes the "arrow" is show under the text box.

Where do I change the alignment for the text boxes and "arrow"  so that they are all on the same line?

Thanks

Lynn

Hi Lynn,

You can edit the text for the register page by going to:

Users
App_LocalResources
ManageUsers

The file to change is:
\admin\Users\App_LocalResources\ManageUsers.ascx.resx

you can edit this by going to admin / languages / language editor / localresources / admin / users / App_LocalResources/ManageUsers.ascx.resx

scroll down and look for the text:
Required.Text

(The resource names are listed in alphabetical order)


The Biography:

Are you using the FCKEditor?

If you are:
On the FCKEditor on the biography section click on Show Custom Editor Options
/ Other editor options
/Force Height - enter a value: ie. 500
At the bottom - Apply custom setting to: This instance, Click on Apply

Remember in the FCKEditor, you can also customize the toolbars to display for the users on this page.

Thanks,

Hi Lee

Thanks for the information.

Perhaps because I am using an install verson (DNN 4.4.0) but I don't have a ManageUsers.ascx.resx file but a ManageUsers.ascx file.

I managed to change the text to read arrow instead of asterisk by navigating to ManageUsers.ascx via languages, thanks.

Regards

Lynn

Hi Lee

I have disabled the Biography (not really required) as I am still unable to change the size of the text box.

Although I am using: the FCKEditor, I am so far unable to find a way to access the registration page whilst logged in in order to edit the FCKEditor.

Also, I am so far unable to locate where I might reset the alignment (To Left ) for the registration page instead of "Center" which is making the page very untidy and squashed.

Thanks

Lynn

Hello,

To access the registration page when you are logged in as admin / host click on your username next to the logout link.

This will take you to view your profile where you can view the biography section, from there you can edit the settings for the FCKEditor.

- A user on this forum previously wanted to reduce the width of the registration page, so I guess the alignment is set from here as well, here's the details:
http://www.dnncreative.com/Forum/tabid/88/view/topic/forumid/4/postid/2486/Default.aspx

Open your DNN installation files
Go to:
admin folder
users folder
Open the Manage Users.aspx file

On line 49 is this:
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" summary="User Design Table" border="0" width="675">

Change the 625 px to the width that you require, such as 205px

Hi Lee

Thanks for the reply.

"To access the registration page when you are logged in as admin / host click on your username next to the logout link."


Doh!! how obvious, what was I thinking, (I was like a window cleaner trying to wash automatic opening glass doors).


Open your DNN installation files
Go to:
admin folder
users folder
Open the Manage Users.aspx file

On line 49 is this:


Change the 625 px to the width that you require, such as 205px

I looked at this page, and I had considered editing to "align-Left" but I was under the impression the alignment might be set else where, as per container alignment. I thought a similar option might be available to align this page, via the site, rather than edit the core.

The width of the page is fine, now that I have changed the skin of the Home Page (my registration/login uses Home page as default) and removed the side menu. I have looked Manage Users.aspx file, but alignments are not set anywhere on the page. However, the alignment for this page is set to "center" somewhere.


Thanks
Lynn

He He - we all have moments like that in DNN!

It maybe worth looking at your containers to see if you can specify an align left on the main content section of the container.

- I would have a look at your source code when viewing the registration page to see if you can trace where the aligns are placed.

Thanks,

Hello Linn,

When you change the section in file manageusers.ascx from

 <asp:panel id="pnlProfile" runat="server" visible="false">

 

</

to

<

asp:panel id="pnlProfile" runat="server" visible="false" HorizontalAlign="Left">

 

</

the alignment is corrected to the left side.

Best regards,

Rob

<dnn:Profile id="ctlProfile" runat="server"></dnn:Profile>asp:panel>

<dnn:Profile id="ctlProfile" runat="server"></dnn:Profile>asp:panel>

Hi Lee

I tried looking at the source code for the registraton page. My registration page uses my homepage as default, and all the panes are left align. I was reluctant to alter alignment further as this would change the homepage.

Hello Robfloppy

Thanks so much for the tip they worked very well, I found that I needed to edit all areas. However, I am having difficulty aligning the arrows, I found that the arrows are displayed under the text box instead of on the right of the relevant box.

Regards

Lynn

Thanks Rob... I would have never found this one on my own.

And many thanks to you Lee... My print company started dabbling in DNN for one of our clients and now we closed our print shop and do web design full time.  Your videos have made things very easy.

Hi Lee,
I added a new profile property and my users can insert a value when they register, but i want to give them the ability to edit this value later on, but there's no way to show it on the edit profile page. any suggestions?

thanks

I'm not sure what you mean.

If you create a new profile property and make it visibile, users will be able to edit it just as they can edit other profile properties.
