I wanted to be able to print a nice profile from the front end without all of the rest of the site elements showing up. I took the advice from above and made another style sheet that is used for printing only. Here's my code in case it helps anyone!

Reference your style sheet like this:
[code:1]
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="http://<your_site_here>.com/templates/<your_template_here>/css/template_for_print_css.css" />
[/code:1]


And put this in your style sheet. Topbar, footer, and sidebar are all divs in my page layout.


[code:1]
body {
background: white;
font-size:12pt;
color:#000000;
}

#topbar, .footer, .sidebar, #cbtab11, #cbtab11 h2.tab, h2.tab{
display: none !important;
}

.contentheading, #cbProfileTitle {
text-align:center;
font-size:16pt;
margin-top:0px;
padding-top:0px;
}

.cbPosMiddle td {
text-align:center;
}

.titleCell, .fieldCell, td.titleCell, td.fieldCell{
border-bottom-style:none;
vertical-align:top;
}



[/code:1]

Hi there,

anybody an idea how to "destroy" the tabs and put them under each other via CSS in order to print them all at once?

I'm working on it, but until now I have no solution

Thanks for the feature request, contributions welcome

This topic has been 3 years old. I also read few topics like this which are on 2006.

So, is this kind of plugin (profile printing) is available now?

I have the same question as @karkunum. I'm trying to create a print profile page. First, I'm linking users to

www.domain.com/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user=[id_here]&tmpl=component

This still shows tabs. Anyway to remove the tabs so it's just one long list? Maybe there's a better way to do this?

you would need to use a custom CSS file for printing, and use CSS override styles for the tabs to make them show in linear format, one after the other ... that is, assuming they are actually rendered linearly by CB. I haven't checked.

Bumping this very old thread once more.

I´m currently rebuilding a website and want to use the info that members put into their profiles to print a book (yes, a classic, physical book! A yearbook, that is ).

I guess that currently the only way to do this is to export the data and then import it into an app that creates the layout for my book? I essentially want to do something like this EXAMPLE , but at the moment I can´t figure out how to get a printable PDF from the CB page
