The part in your about section is probably broken, try using:

[list=a]
[*](All the codes for section 1
[list=1]
[*](All the codes for section 2
[/list]
[/list]



You should see the letter "a." at the beginning of the first section and a "1." at the beginning of the second.

confused I don't know why this isn't working. I'll just give up for now and deal with the space.

Try putting it at the very beginning in the about bbcode input screen. If that doesn't work put it at the very end.

If you guy still look at this...

I'm making an "extra" section (an unordered list), and it works fine.
Exhept the links for the About section move with it. I don't want a numbered list/ordered list, but I want the "About" links to stay where they were, and my unordered list to stay where it is.

Making an ordered list would make it a lot easer on you.
If you're worried about the numbers, just don't use the "
  • " in front of each of the objects you want in the list.
    But, if you're intent on having an unordered list, you'll have to move the about links like this:

    #about .links li {position: relative; left: XXpx; top: XXpx;}

    Obviously, replace the "XX"s with numbners top position them.

    I've started working on a new profile and have run into a Firefox related problem with this trick. When I take my about section and set it to a fixed height and add scroll bars, I can't get the new sections outside #about. Instead, the links act like I've set the overflow property to hidden, and anything that's beyond the width of #about gets cut off.

    If you peek here you'll see what I'm talking about.

    I've tried a couple of things, but nothing has fixed it so far. I was wondering if anyone might have some ideas on how to take care of it.

    Whoops, that's what was messing up King Chaos.

    Haven't tried but if you can jam the desired contents of your about section into a final ordered list and then set #about ol ol lolololol overflow to auto then that might be a decent workaround.

    Or possibly increase the padding (or maybe something else) of the about section so that it takes up space in the entire profile page without expanding the scrollbar dimensions. No idea if that would work at all.

    I don't think your second suggestion would work since scrollbars follow the edge and padding pushes the edges out. Margins wouldn't work either. I guess using a scolling ordered list is the only way. That'll work.

    Thank you, [Joby].

    The code I use for my Quilt is:
    #about ul{code}
    And then post in your About section:
    [list][*]blah[/list]

    I dont know if this is any help but i think if you go to the code for the about section and set its overflow to none or delete it all together the ol wont go missing it worked on mine
