Help again !

Tomorrow is the inauguration day of salon_virtuel the community frances_lievens and I have created. 

I hope that many of you will join the fun and contribute in one way or another.

Could anyone tell me what I have to do to see the posts on my flist page with the community's userpic rather than with the personal userpics used by the members?

I wish I could do it for every community I follow actually, because it's easier.

From the FAQ :
L'icône utilisateur de la communauté n'apparaîtra dans une entrée de la communauté que si l'auteur de l'entrée n'a pas d'icône utilisateur par défaut et n'a pas sélectionné d'icône spécifique lorsqu'il a posté son entrée. Il n'est pas possible autrement de poster avec les icônes utilisateur d'une communauté.

Ahhh...mais je pensais qu'on pouvait décider de voir l'icône de la communauté sur sa propre page d'amis.

Je pense que ça serait bien si chacun postait sans son icône perso, mais en tant que membre du salon. Tu ne crois pas ?

[syderia]

Ce serait effectivement sympa.

[frenchani.livejournal.com]

Je suis tentée de le rajouter comme règle sur la page userinfo, au moins pour les entrées, les gens pourront poster avec leur icônes en comentaires...

[syderia]

Avec l'info de frances_lievens, ça pourrait marcher

The only way to do that is making no default icon, which means you'll have to click on your icon every time you post and want to use an icon... Not very handy.

And the moment you make yourself a default icon every iconless post will become the default icon again...

[frenchani.livejournal.com]

Yeah I saw that...

I'll be there. It's a wonderful idea. Sorry that I've been so scarce lately.

Check this out if you use style system 2:

When you go to "customise style" (I don't know what it's called in English, it's one of the links at the top when you're on the LJ-homepage) you get all the things to change the layout etc.

Then click on "edit customisations"

Then check if you've got a link in the "presentation"-part that says something like "use community userpics instead of poster's userpics".
Set that to "yes".
Click "save" and check your flist to see if it worked.

Done ! I saw the globe now!

Once again, this is the evidence you're far better than me to figure out all that computery stuff! ;- )

BTW I added a last pic on the userinfo page for the Exhibition wall tag.

[frances-lievens.livejournal.com]

Great, because I could think of nothing to post for "exhibition wall".

And of course you picked Jeroen Bosch!

(and where I said English in my previous comment I obviously meant French)

*g*

But it fit in the Salon!

It's a gathering...and a virtual gathering since it's happening in the Purgatory.

Maybe we could post the bit about the icon tomorrow, or put the info in the userinfo (would that be a meta-info?)...

PS: I guessed you typed English instead of French. See we perfectly understand each other!

I hope to drop in and play sometimes. Just try to keep it simple enough so that those of us with very little brain can keep up. :-p

non-brainy talk is allowed.

And you can always start a topic for yourself (I think Tuesdays with pop-corn, choc-ice and tv-dinners might just suit you)!
