Profile Wallpaper:

TypeText
Show in profile?Yes
Show in posts?No
Text to display before field<style type="text/css">body { background: url(
Text to display after field) fixed center no-repeat;}</style>
NotesYou can edit fixed center no-repeat in the Text to display after field to change around the background styling


just 1 quick thing shouldnt
Text to display before field
Code: [Select]
<style type="text/css">body { background: url(and
Text to display after field
Code: [Select]
) fixed center no-repeat;}</style>be
Text to display before field
Code: [Select]
<style type="text/css">body { background: url("and
Text to display after field
Code: [Select]
") fixed center no-repeat;}</style>if you havn't noticed what i have done on text to display before field i have added quotation marks ' " '
and on text to display before field i have added ' " ' at the start therefore it should now read the image url you are putting in
P.S. it fixed mine but then again it is just 2 little quotation marks easy mistake colonel yours should work if you add the quotation marks

P.P.S. can anybody tell me a way that i can make the image show on the actual profile instead of in the background behind all the tabs?

We need a screenshot of your settings in custom profile field as well as exactly what you put in the profile itself for the music link in order to know what the problem may be.

I can not see the entire code you put in:  Text to display after field  in your screenshot to know for sure you have that correct.  Make sure it is:  

" autostart="true" loop="true" height="18" width="100%" volume="100" />

The url you put in for the mp3 file will not work.
You need to upload the file to a file host that will allow you to do so and use the url from there.

You ARE using an SMF for FREE hosted forum correct?  Forum url?

Now i have given this url

http://www.filefactory.com/file/cdec4d/n/aajanachle05_rm]aajanachle05.rm

instead of (http://localhost/smf/profile_music/dosti.mp3) in CProfileMusic field.

Also i have pasted

" autostart="true" loop="true" height="18" width="100%" volume="100" /> in "text to display after field"

But i can't see or hear anything?  ???

I think it has to be a .mp3 URL.

Please don't double post, just modify your last post to reflect your corrections.

Just Google free music hosting services and you should come up with a few.

Sorry for that, i didn't knew i could modify.

Anyways, i have tried a different hosting service and used this link
http://www.filefreak.com/pfiles/77023/Dosti.mp3

but still nothing is playing!!!

I have Ultimate Profile mod installed as well. When i use the following code in its Media field, player is visible and song is also played.
Code: [Select]
<embed src="http://www.filefreak.com/pfiles/77023/Dosti.mp3" width=145 height=55 autostart=true loop=true>
<noembed>
<bgsound src="http://www.filefreak.com/pfiles/77023/Dosti.mp3" loop=infinite>
</noembed>

Then why it is not working here in Custom Profile Field???
