See my profile and click on my calendar link for a preview.
The whole idea is to make a calendar that looks like part of our profiles, taking away all that would link it to a message board.
1) Create a community giving it the same name as your Yuku username. For instance my user name is zandranna.u.yuku.com - the community for my calendar is zandranna.yuku.com.
2) Select or create a skin that is the same as or similar to your profile (need help with this?? then just ask me) - Make sure that any heading you have on your profile is also put on to the newly created board - the idea is to make your calendar look as much like your profile as possible.
3) Now you need to make the calendar look more like part of your profile rather than looking like a message board.
3a) In your css add this
.search { display: none; }That will remove most of that which shows it as a message board as we are going to make it look as if it belongs totally to a profile. Not all of it needs to be removed but this is just in case you might like to use part of the message board for other bits for your profile as mentioned in the reply to this post below.
.calendar .bread-crumbs { display: none; }
.boxheading .bread-crumbs { display: none; }
.tool-box .boxheading h1 { display: none; }
.tool-box .boxbody { display: none; }
.legend-box { display: none; }
.mark-read { display: none; }
.social-links { display: none; }
.forum-jump { display: none; }
#directory_default .control-box { display: none; }
3b) Also in the css you need to add (this below will put back a breadcrumb leading to your profile.)
.myheader2 {Change that in red to match any other header you may have. If you haven't already got a header you will need to change it to the other borders and background that match your profile. I have given it the class of header2 incase you may have a header already and want to make them different.
margin-top: -15px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
padding: 5px;
border: 2px solid #661919;
background: #300404;
}
3c) In your custom html footer add
<box after="tool-box">Change that in red for your own profile url and name
<div class="myheader2">
<a href="http://zandranna.u.yuku.com/">Zandranna's Profile</a>
<br>
</div></box>
</div>
This coding above may have to be juggled for each individual skin but if you need any help with it just ask and I can look at your skin and juggle it for you.
4) Once you have your calendar set up you will then need to go and put a link to it on your profile. This can be done with either a button, text, or as I have, with a menu at the top of the page.
Any problems then do get back to me.
If you would like a calendar but have absolutely no clue as to how to play with the skins then I can help you from scratch. Just ask.
There are a couple of other things you can use a board for, once you have created it, to tie in with your profile.
1) Enable a chatroom for personal chats with your friends, then put a direct link into it on your profile.
2) Create a forum for polls. Make a poll up and then put a link on your profile to it.
3) Add many extra features
If you think you may want to add more than just a calendar then please read THIS THREAD first as you wont need to add all of the code above.
