How to hide the online status under the headshot?

Jan 26, '08 8:06 AM
by Lusy (The Sunset Girl) for everyone

I had visited many pages around here before I noticed 3 of them don't have the online status under their headshots.
Is it really possible to do so and if yes, can somebody please tell me how? If this has been asked before - sorry - just give me the link.

Thank you!

I forgot to add that they also don't have the location under the headshots. Moreover, one of them is my contact and there is no info of the relationship under his headshot either. It usually says 'xxx is your online buddy/friend/etc' right? Instead, it shows the links of options (Photos of xxx, Personal Message, RSS Feed, Report Abuse, etc) directly under his headshot.

.railbody p {

anyway examining the HTML code of the page (view page source) it is possible to see the status -
display none just hides the text does not cancel it from the page

Well, whatever it is, I'm just gonna head to the back of the line & wait for the answer with everyone else! Anybody have any Cookies or something while we wait?

@onlymissy

add a }
at the end of ur css code !

alogena wrote on Jan 26, edited on Jan 27

this code

.railbody p {
display:none;
}

will hide
status, name and country

only the country (in italic) is hidable at this way

.railbody p i {
display:none;
}

only the status (in bold) is hidable at this way

.railbody p b {
display:none;
}

the only name is hidable at this way

.railbody p {
display:none;
}
.railbody p i, .railbody p b {
display:block;
}

Thanks for the code! I just want that thing off my site when people pay me a quick visit, that's all.
Again, thanks!

thank u for the code.. your a big help

I would hope that the moderators have that power. This might be a option when you create your page or the option is given in your profile? If that's not it, since IDK, ask one of them to
"Git-r-Done."

the only country is addressable at this way

.railbody p i {
display:none;
}

the only status is addressable at this way
.railbody p b {
display:none;
}

so u can to use only
.railbody p b {
display:none;
}

for removing only the status leaving there country and name.

i'm sorry, i'm confused.

which code do i use to hide status, name & country?

I just have a quick question....I've used this on my test site and it hid the info with no problem, but for some reason it will not work with my personal site (the one I'm using right now). Is there something I'm missing here? I hate having my online status showing 'cause sometimes I can only pop on quick and would prefer to be invisible.

acrafty1 wrote on Jan 27

Ooops...silly me, I was signed in at wrong site when I wrote the above comment.....THIS profile is the one that won't hide the online status!

alogena wrote on Jan 27

The most probable thing is that
u have a syntax error in the code
before the place where u have added the new code
(in the same block or in some previous block)

alogena wrote on Jan 27, edited on Jan 27

....above ,,, uhmmm

yep ,, As u see u forgot the clsed bracket

#home_guestbook {
height: 500px;
overflow:auto;
width: 360px;

.replydeleted {display:none;}

.railbody p {
display:none;
}

you have to close the #home_guestbook block with the }
probably .replydeleted too is not working :)

I am reading this right now, still don't get it. What is the procedure? What I mean is how do I start, what first, next? I am pretty iliterate about codes and such. Anybody has the patience to explain to me in layman's terms please!

1timelessdove wrote on Jan 30

thank you

hanzrobin wrote on Jan 30

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I'm here by way of a link provided by a friend in a group setting.

Yes! Now I can return to hiding.

hanzrobin wrote on Jan 30

BTW, the code that's supposed to hide one's name, online status and country only works for two out of the three. My "name" is still showing. However, as I don't use my real one, I'm not bothered by it.

At least my status is no longer showing and that's the main thing.

Just take the necessary code and paste it in your Custom CSS box.

Hi can the codes you show here be used on a Multiply Customised Theme ?

citybreezes wrote on Feb 8

I should have made myself clear here, I meant the code to hide online status

Yes, you are not altering the theme itself just hiding the info in the right rail.

citybreezes wrote on Feb 8

Thank you so much for quick response

citybreezes wrote on Feb 8

Well I do not seem to grasp this even though reading it, seems straight forward......I still show as online, I copied and pasted the code in css box, obviously it must go in box in an order? I am computer illiterate so sorry...I added it at end of the css codes, this is wrong I assume?

psychotic2 wrote on Feb 8

You can basically add anything that you want to the CSS codes to enhance your theme by hiding the default icons, adding the guestbook overflow codes etc. I just recently came across a post about changing the "Submit" & "Preview" buttons on your page and I applied theme to my theme. (created by me) Here is the code if anyone is interested: Just change the hex colors #'s to your preferences to match your page.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

input {
background-image: none;
background: transparent;
border: 2px solid #B0CAE3;
color: #AB1B1A;
font-size:10px;
font-weight: bold;
margin:3px;
padding:5px;
}

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

citybreezes said

This is the code that I used just to hide the "Online" status:
---------------------------------

.railbody p b {
display:none;
}

---------------------------------
Copy what's between the lines to hide just the online status. The other codes for the rest is given in the thread. Don't forget the (.) dot/period in front of the code and refresh your page afterwards.

citybreezes wrote on Feb 8

Thank you for being so patient with me.............I still cannot get it to work for me, many thanks anyway...........

citybreezes wrote on Feb 8

Yes my friend the last suggestion has worked.............many thanks I shall remember this in future Themes

psychotic2 wrote on Feb 8

No Problem...I see that it is working and that you needed to move it up in the CSS above the Theme Authors URL. You'll just have to remember whatever you may add in the future for this theme is to add it above that particular part in the CSS code in order for the codes to work.

citybreezes wrote on Feb 8

I will remember , thanks for help psychotic

momentsmaker wrote on Feb 17

i tried to use the codes. but unfortunately, my name still remains there.
i used this code:


.railbody p {

}

alogena wrote on Feb 17

thanks alogena.
i realized that when we view our own site, our name would still show.
but if we viewed it from someone's account, the name would not show up.
thanks for bringing that to my attention.
i appreciate it, dear.

Ok, I am not gettng this. Where do I put the code that I use to hide my online status. I assumed I was to put the code at the end of the railbody codes, but that didnt change anything.

Would someone tell me where to put:
.railbody p b {
display:none;
}

Thank you!

alogena wrote on Mar 1, edited on Mar 1

yup you can to add that everywhere :)
if you have some doubt then add that
at the bottom of your preexistent code in your custom css box
after the last } you see there

if you are more desirous to learn than search the rigth rail section and add the code there
just caring you put the code between two blocks and not inside another one block

I mean
you HAVE TO DO
/* Rigth rail section */
...
some name {
...
}
.railbody p b {
display:none;
}
some other name {
....
}

and NOT

some name {
...
.railbody p b {
display:none;
}
}

ok I hope its clear

alogena wrote on Mar 2

yes its a new upgrade :-)

well for removing that info from the mini profile popup IN YOUR SITE
one possible code to use is

table.miniprofilebodytable .address {display:none;}

it will remove the status and the country info too
ONLY in your site

that info is not removable by you in the inbox and in the other sites

Thanks for the added code ~ Question just to clarify.....
So if someone is on a friends MP homepage, sees my headshot and clicks to see my miniprofile - they will be able to see that I'm online, right?

anyway I want to say u one thing more
completing it in a deign manner
but do not say it to nobody ,,

you need about three (3) second for to see the online status when u are visiting a site

just
from the menu of firefox
-> View -> Page Style -> No Style
[I translated it from my language not sure as is written]

it will remove all the external css files ;)
you will see the page without the CSS format
and you will see the status too .

is there a way to hide the name "val0214" under the head shot or to rename it....thanks also for the online code

alogena wrote on Mar 17

uhmm .. you cannot rename the User ID

for hiding the user id you have to use this code

/* HIDING THE USER_ID BELOW THE HEADSHOT */
.railbody .userlogo a { visibility:hidden; }
.railbody .userlogo a img { visibility:visible; }

it could be possible put there another id after you have hidden the original ID..
but it's not so natural to make this -> using an html box in the welcome box and displacing it
