Is there a way to set a featured like banner on profiles that sign up for a specific profile type? if not, how am i able to let users pic a background image for their PAGE and not only their profile and cover photo?
Hey Will,

I am sorry but unfortunately this is not possible right now but what you could do is to customize the template file and display the user's cover photo within your Joomla template

I am not too sure if I understand what you are trying to achieve here. Are you trying to display the user's cover as a banner on the site or?

1. I am trying to have a banner such as "Featured" on a specific profile type. Similar to the the "Featured" banner on featured groups or events.

2. If the above is not possible, is there a way for a user to use a full image on their page? I know of a plugin that allows users to change their background & font colors, is it possible for a full image background?

1. It is not possible currently as we do not have a "Featured" option for users.

2. What do you mean by full image here? When you mean background and font colors, do you mean the entire page of the site when you view their profile?

Hey Will,

Unfortunately that wouldn't be possible right now and I wouldn't advise you to allow that to happen as well because this way, the user might mess up the site if they do it on purpose or by accident.

Thanks for the feedback but it would be great if i could have something similar to featured groups but featured profiles instead. Is there some coding i could do for this to happen?

Hello Will,

I'm sorry but it is not as easy as it looks. There are many things to consider when adding this feature.
