    Problem Positioning App On Customized Profile

    Hi,

    I have my app installed on a client's custom profile
    and we're having a problem positioning the app.
    Here's the profile url: http://www.myspace.com/mikegeier


    This is the code I'm using
    table.userProfileApp {position:relative; top: 400px; left: 10px;
    z-index:9; border:none}

    If I remove all the custom profile code and make it a standard profile I can move
    around fine with the above code, just not with the custom code intact in place.

    I was wondering if someone may be able to help with this.

    Thanks for your time.

    Hi,

    Version 2.0 profiles, the user gets to choose wherever they want the app to be placed. In 1.0 - it's wherever the developer decides.

    This looks like a music profile, correct? I'll need to check in for that, sorry for the delay.

    Hey Rhonda,

    Thanks for the reply. No prob, sorry for the delay on my part, thought I subscribed to email notifications on this post and wasn't.

    Yep it's a musician profile 1.0.
    I just solved the problem though.

    The above code is for customizing the location of left column apps. My app was previously configured to be install in the left column. The above code worked great to position it. Then I updated my app and switched it to the right column to take advantage of the additional width it provides. I recently found out that you need different code to position left side apps vs right side apps. Here's the code that works to position the right side (column) apps:

    <style>
    table table table.userProfileApp {position:relative; top: 400px; left: 10px; z-index:9; border:none}
    </style>

    (Not sure why the left column app positioning code worked on a right column app when removing all the custom profile  code but maybe I was mistaken and it didn't work at all, or some anomaly. Not too sure..)

    And for reference to anyone else that needs this left column code:

    LEFT COLUMN APP POSITIONING CODE BELOW

    <style>
    table.userProfileApp {position:relative; top: 400px; left: 10px; z-index:9; border:none}
    </style>

    Thanks,

    Dino

    I'm glad you got it worked out :) Let me know if you have any other problems.

    Btw: notifications are not working in these forums. We thought we removed the subscribe option, so I'll have to double check to make sure it's not there.

    Thanks Rhonda =)

    Oh I see then why I didn't get the notification, thanks for the update.
    I thought I was subscribed because I posted the firstpost and then thought I better check to make sure
    I'm subscribed to this thread. So I clicked to edit my post and in the options tab seen that 'email me replies to this post'
    was checked. I just checked and this is still there so probably the last place to remove the reference to subscriptions
    until its working again.

     

    Thanks,
