Nano bars? Empty Nano bars?

Post by Arianna 9/13/2009, 5:11 am

I don't know how many of us are doing Nano, but as you know, it's in November.
The site has these bars under people's usernames. They show how far you are. Smile We could do this too!

Go to ACP > Users and Groups > Profiles > Add
Then use these things

Type: Bar
Name: Nano Words (or something to the like)
Description: Put how far you are on your nano (for your goal) with a percenage!
Obligatory: No
Preview: Messages & Profile
Who can modify the value? the User
----
Minimum Value: 0
Maximum Value: 100
Default Value: 0

Now click save. Users can update how far they are on Nano (or their story) by putting their percentage. For example, if I was aiming for 50K and I had 20K words, I'd put 40% in Smile Isn't it cool?

You can see an example here...

Yes, the only problem with these is it would require a lot of flash coding in the signatures, and that's just... complicated. Unless you were thinking of putting them somewhere else. Would we have a thread that could track all of our progress? Like in the NaNo section? We could post everyones up in the first post or something...

What do you mean? It doesn't require any coding, just a bar under your username Smile Forumotion allows you to do it Wink

I think it'd be just a simple textbox, Keri. Smile Like, we wouldn't have a bar literally, we'd just have the numbers.

I think the idea is cool, and if more people like it, we could probably add it come November. Smile

Ohhhh! xD Okay! That's easier than I thought. Yeah, I saw the example, but I didn't know if you did that yourself or not.

Oh, well I sort of did and sort of didn't. xD
All I did was fill it out like I posted here. If you wanted to see, you could make an account there and I'd put you as an admin. I did that for Amanda too Smile
