I see some people have a little blue bar chart under their signature
How do we active this?

Firstly the grammar and English of the explanation on the faq doesn't make sense
It's worded very strangely?
Second it doesn't say how to "fill" the bars?

Re: Progress bar charts
Okay. In the 'code' box, are three different examples of progress bars, which correspond to the three progress bars below the box. Each line in the 'code' box will produce one of the three bars. They are in order. So, when it says the second and third type of bar work better, what it means is the second and third lines of code in the box:
Those will make these two progress boxes:
: Progress Bar Two:
: Progress Bar Three:
To fill the boxes, you simply change the first number. So, to show that you have read, for example, two books of five, you would have the numbers 2/5 between the progress tags. To show that you have read three books of five, you simply change that to 3/5. It would look like this:
which will give this result:
: Books
or, like this:
which will give this:
Books:
Compare with the Progress Bar Two above.
Code: Select all
[progress= ]2/5[/progress] Progress Bar Two:
[progress= ]8/163[/progress] Progress Bar Three:
Those will make these two progress boxes:
: Progress Bar Two:
: Progress Bar Three:
To fill the boxes, you simply change the first number. So, to show that you have read, for example, two books of five, you would have the numbers 2/5 between the progress tags. To show that you have read three books of five, you simply change that to 3/5. It would look like this:
Code: Select all
[progress= ]3/5[/progress] Books:
which will give this result:
: Books
or, like this:
Code: Select all
[progress=Books]3/5[/progress]
which will give this:
Books:
Compare with the Progress Bar Two above.

Thanks but why are bar 2 and 3 better?
Also for the range is 5 the maximum?
For example if we are half way through a course we put 2.5?
I noticed one bar had different range?

They are simply preferred because they align well in a post or in a signature. No other reason. There is no maximum. The bars in my post and in the original FAQ post are simply example. You change the numbers and the names of the bars to fit your purpose. Have a look at the first post of my log, where I have four progress bars with different values in each.
Also, the progress bars only take full numbers, so no decimal point. In the example you've given, you'll have to wait until you've finished the course to update the bar. Play around with the bars in your signature, to see how they work for yourself.
