Themes

OK...here is what you need to do...

Assuming you are using the Formal White theme

1. Download and place the attached profileblock.php into the formal_white/layout directory
2. Using Notepad or a Text Editor OPEN formal_white/layout/frontpage.php
    and add the following code (as shown below), just inside the headerlogo div...
   I have grayed out the original html to give you an idea where to place the code...just add the hightlighted line...and SAVE
   <div id="headerlogo">
       <img src="<?php echo $logourl ?>" alt="Custom logo here" />
       <?php include('profileblock.php'); ?>
   </div>
3. Do the same again for formal_white/layout/general.php and formal_white/layout/report.php
4. With formal_white/layout/report.php still open change this line...
   from THIS...
   
   <?php echo core_renderer::MAIN_CONTENT_TOKEN ?>
   
   to THIS...
   
   <?php echo $OUTPUT->main_content(); ?>
   
   
5. Add the following $string to the end of the list in
   formal_white/lang/en/theme_formal_white.php
   
   $string['usergreeting'] = 'Hi {$a}!';
   
   
6. COPY and PASTE the following CSS rules to your Custom CSS box found if you goto...
   Site Administration > Appearance > Themes > and CLICK the Formal White settings page link...
   
   Profileblock
   -----------------------*/
   #loginbox {
       float: right;
       text-align: right;
       height: 30px;
       margin: 30px 0 0;
       padding: 0;
       width: 500px;
   }
   #loginbox .login-row {
       height: auto;
       margin-top: 30px;
   }
   #loginbox .common-row {
       display: inline;
   }
   #loginbox ul {
       float: right;
       margin: 0;
   }
   #loginbox ul li {
       display: inline;
       padding: 0;
       margin: 0;
   }
   #loginbox ul li.top {
       display: block;
       padding: 0;
       line-height: 2;
   }
   #loginbox img.guestpicture,
   #loginbox img.userpicture {
       float: right;
       padding: 10px;
       height: 50px;
       width: 50px;
   }
   #page-header .logininfo {
       display: none;
   }
7. DON'T FORGET to SAVE your settings
8. NEXT go to Site Administration > Development > Purge all cache

And that's it....refresh your browser and you should see the prifile block.
Also since this settup uses the headerlog dive, you will need to make sure that Logo is set as the default in the Formal White custom settings page.

If you have any problems let me know and I'll help you fix theme...although I will not be around tomorrow during the day.

Cheers
