I have tied JForum into my webapp (www.evolvedturtle.com). Of course, my webapp presents a "profile page" to the user in my webapp. However, I do not want to replicate the code that JForum does already. Namely, I leverage the JForum Avatar for my users' profile. This works great.
Now, on my user's profile page, I would like to have a link for them to click to change the avatar. Currently, this just links to the JForum Profile page.
To improve this link, it would be nice to add an A anchor so that the link will scroll the page down to the avatar section. Otherwise, if the user is not aware that the avatar section is at the bottom of the page, they may be confused.
Better still! It would be much nicer if the Avatar upload could be a page all unto itself. I think that it makes sense, since the profile edit page is already complex enough. And the avatar is something I might change frequently (some users do, some don't). And my link to that page would be much cooler and more "obvious". The Avatar section could be left on the profile page, and the new page just added as a redundancy.
All of this aside, I cannot figure out how to modify the existing page in 2.1.4 to add the A anchor in my version. I add the anchor to then user_profile.htm template, but it never shows up in the actual page. For some reason it disappears from the html output. Can you tell me how to add this anchor in my version?
