Version 0.3.0 installed on test site

CSC Development

Just posting this to let you know I have installed version 0.3.0 of the CSC up on the Testing grounds.  New in this version is the first attempts at the new style of profile page I'm going for, which is a 3-tabbed profile page for staff and the profile owner, and 1-tab (of the public profile) for everyone else.  I have also consolidated some of my 'classification' plans into a simpler model.  I'll see how that works out as development continues.

Be warned, the profiles right now are very basic, I was only trying to get the tabbed layout working in this version, so don't expect any interactivity inside the tab to be working (no editing fields right now, which, I understand, handicaps you from doing a whole lot).  Just make sure the tabs themselves work, and that you can visit other members' profiles, and that you have the correct number of tabs showing.

Please note, I have been writing up my first public announcement of this component; I am planning on letting the world know about this soon.  It will still be some time before it is released, but I need to start getting more feedback on this so I have some direction on where to go with some things.  Expect me to make this announcement sometime between now and next Friday.  When I do that, I will also be making this Blog category public so others can see what has been done so far and for them to give me feedback.  I'll also probably add a forum to this site for feedback if that's necessary.

So please, take some time to check out the new version and give it the last private once-over before everyone else gets to see it.

On the member list, have the dropdown's been deprecated? Because I just see a link now, instead of the normal CSS styles. Otherwise, looks good :unsure:

Can't give much feedback until the tabs are done though

I was debating about whether I'd do those dropdowns or not, I think I put up a topic in the Tracker asking for feedback. I believe the plan was to just wait to see how IPB3 was doing it.

Looks good, although like you say about the tabs, there's not a lot for us (testers) to do at the moment

. I noticed the "Manage Profile" and "Edit Profile" tabs have no content yet (compared to your public screenshots in your announcement topic) , although I expect this is normal ?

I remember the tracker post about the drop-down's, agree on waiting to see what happens with IPB3.0 really :unsure:

What is in those other 2 tabs at the moment are just placeholders. The middle tab will eventually have a page where you can add a new profile (like a new website) or deactivate some profiles. Then the last tab will have all of the fields for all of your profiles where you can edit each of their values. The first tab is like the 'profile', the last tab is like a 'user cp' page, if that makes sense.

Have just upgraded to v0.3.1, expanded the main profile page a bit. Check it out when you get a chance.

That looks really nice now Mike. :unsure:

, no bugs noticed.

One (unrelated) suggestion posted though, while I thought about something else.
