Hi,

I would like to change the layout, colour, and fonts in the form in which one changes users details. The controling file seems to be 'edituser.php'. Is there a template?

Thanks

I think I misunderstood the question... I was thinking user menu... similar to main menu.

Sorry,
We were talking about two different areas of edit.
Someone else will have to help you on this.

Good Luck...

You'll need to edit system_userform.html

But you'll find most things related to color and fonts are controlled in your theme's style.css file. So if you want to change them just on this form, you'll need to create new classes etc on that template and add them to your style sheet.

Thanks, but I'm confused.

the system_userform looks like this, after we did some editing of it (still more to do):

communication research institute login

As you can see, we know how to edit html and ccs

My problem is with the form that currently looks like this
communication research institute detail.

I cannot find the template that controls this.

I think the file you are looking for is "includes/registerform.php". That php file controls the layout of the registration form.

Ooops, yes. That file doesn't have a template, so you'll have to edit the form directly.

Thanks.

As i thought, there is no template. Which leads me to my next question. How do I edit registerform.php to get the appearance i want. I should add that i'm a total novice when it comes to php, though I can see vaguely which bits do what and I can cut and paste code without getting into too much of a mess.

can you help?

Actually, I have no idea. That form appears to be generated on the fly...

I have edited it to cut down elements (take away the IM addresses and other things I didn't want) and to change default preferences (default to yes on recieving emails). I have never attempted a radical redesign of it.


Here is an example of one cut down:

How much are you looking to change it?
