+Bull Moose Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 It's fun to watch how many people are signing up for the Keenpeople.com stats tracking by watching how far my ranking falls between each time I come to the forum. I think I started out as something like #90 overall, as of this writing I'm down to #165. Which is still pretty high for a paltry 107 finds. Come on people, let's see how low we can get my overall ranking! Quote Link to comment
+Marky Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Yeah, I'm waiting for someone to come in and bump me out of the top spot. --Marky "All of us get lost in the darkness, dreamers learn to steer with a backlit GPSr" Quote Link to comment
+JMBella Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 I started at #1. Now I'm #3...out of 3. Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Because now I am Lost.

+Marky Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 I like the cool little icon thingies next to the names of the 'online' users. Just noticed that today. --Marky "All of us get lost in the darkness, dreamers learn to steer with a backlit GPSr" Quote Link to comment

btouch Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Cool. I'm number one in my state! At least until others start using the stat generator. <script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.keenpeople.com/components/com_stats/js_showstate.php?stateval=GA"></script> Quote Link to comment
btouch Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 OK. I'm not getting this. How do I get the little stat thing to show in my posts? Quote Link to comment
+Stunod Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Copy and paste the UBBcode, not the HTML Quote Link to comment
btouch Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Here's another stab at it OK, obviously I don't know what I'm doing. I don't know the difference between HTML and BBCode. Nor do I know where to copy it to. Do I have to paste it at the bottom of every post, or can I paste it into my signature line on in my preferences page? Quote Link to comment

+KSDreamCachers Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Well do not feel bad, I do not know what I am doing either, and I know the difference between bbcode and html. I can not get my stats image to come up in either anywhere!! Quote Link to comment
+Bull Moose Posted October 8, 2003 Author Share Posted October 8, 2003 It took me forever to get it right, too. You can post it into the signature field in "change your account" in BBCode. Make sure you are using the BBCode output that the page generates. Quote Link to comment
+Stunod Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Also, if you add it to the signature on your profile page, you need to log out and close your browser, then log back in for the changes to take place. Quote Link to comment
btouch Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Ok, I've copied the code from the Keenpeople website into my signature line, logged out, shut down my browser... Let's see if this works now. Quote Link to comment
+KSDreamCachers Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 I assume you need to use your keenpeople userid and not your geocaching.com userid. Am I correct on this?? Quote Link to comment
btouch Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Well, I guess that's progress Now what am I doing wrong?!!!!! Quote Link to comment

+KSDreamCachers Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Okay, lets try again. I put the bbcode on my signature, so it should come up under my comments....crossing my fingers Quote Link to comment

+RuffRidr Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Now if their stat page would auto update itself, this would be an ideal solution. You've got people opting in and its not stealing the bandwidth from this site. --RuffRidr Quote Link to comment

+ShaneN4Girls Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 What am I doing wrong. Built the thing on keenpeople, copied the entire UBB code, pasted into my signature. I just get the UBB showing up in the signature instead of translation into the image. Help????
