Housepage Help



Many members know this problem: You use many pieces of furniture, decorative items, outfits, etc. that you created yourself or downloaded from member homepages. The visitors cannot see these items if they don't have them on their computers.

This is a thing of the past!

Creating Housepage

  • moove now gives you the chance to create your own housepage, where you can offer furniture, items, decorations and outfits for download - downloadable just as comfortably and easy as in the moove shop.

  • The following HTML source code shows how to turn your own housepage into a download page in the design of and with same functions as the moove shop.

  • This page is shown to the visitor before every visit to the club.

  • Visitors can download the items before they visit, so that they already have all necessary pieces installed for the actual visit. This way, the chat won't be interrupted by downloads and installations. Now chatting is even more fun! Visitors will already have all items and the house won't be slowed down by downloads and installations.

  • Copy the complete HTML source code in the gray box. Then you can go to the community page, open "Service&Options" in the navigation bar to the left-> "Housepage", and paste the source code into the text entry field. If you haven't used the editor yet, you should open it via the "Editor" button and then close it again. Otherwise the housepage would only contain the source code itself instead of the intended page.

</HTML>

As soon as you have tried this, your housepage will look like this.
  • Now you should use this source code as a base and change it to offer your own furniture, outfits, etc, for download on your housepage. Of course you can also change the text!

    Members who aren't familiar with HTML source code should only change the following color-coded passages in their code:
  • Text in the title bar
  • Heading
  • Main text
  • Exact Internet address (URL) to the preview pictures (furniture, items, outfits, etc.) of the MPZ files.
  • Exact Internet address (URL) to the respective MPZ files (moove package)

If you have more than two non-moove pieces of furniture, items or outfits in your room (i.e. pieces that your visitors need to download), you need to copy the IMG tags from the example, paste them underneath each other, and then change them (change preview picture URL and MPZ file address URL).


Hint: Find free webspace for pictures e.g. at dmoz or at Yahoo!.
The webspace you can use then e.g. for the preview pictures of the outfits, actors or furniture!
