f.a.q.

can i use your codes?

yes. if the code is available on this account, you're welcome to use it. all free codes can be used by anyone, and there are links on how to purchase my p2u codes on their profiles.

how do i use these?

to start off, go into your account display settings and make sure you turn off the white WYSIWYG text editor box by unchecking the box next to "Profile Text". this is the most important thing. after that, copy the code from the "get the code" page of the code's profile. for character profiles, you'll paste them into the large text box in the center of the page, and for user profiles, you'll paste them into the box on the "profile content" page of your account settings.

how do i edit the code to fit my character?

you will need basic HTML editing knowledge to edit codes. if you're a beginner, the most important things to learn are how to edit links, add images, and use paragraph tags. w3schools is a nice, free website to help you learn.
toyhouse also uses bootstrap. you won't need it for basic code edits, but if you'd like to do anything extensive (like adding/removing tabs or profile sections) that'd be handy to know as well.

from there, you will need to read through the code and find the things you want to change. for example, to change the placeholder "character's name" text, read through the code in the code editor until you see "character's name", then delete and replace with your character's actual name. do the same for the various bits of info like height, age, pronouns, etc. most of my codes have notes on how to edit things like color palettes and reference images, so just read through the code and you should be able to do most of it on your own.

do i really need to turn off WYSIWYG? :C i can't see the code without it!

Yes. You really need to turn it off. WYSIWYG legitimately breaks all of my HTML codes, and it makes it incredibly hard for me to troubleshoot your issues when you have it on. TH user circlejourney has made a wonderful live code editor you can use here instead of relying on WYSIWYG.

the code isn't working! i pasted it and it doesn't show up/shows the raw code!

Turn Off WYSIWYG, and then repaste the code.

can non-premium users use your codes?

as of right now, yes! all of my codes (including the custom colors ones) are HTML-only, so everyone can use them.

can i change non-custom color codes to use custom colors? do i have to buy access to the custom color code to do this?

yes, you can change non-custom color codes to use custom colors, and no you don't need to buy access to the custom color versions to do so. most of my codes use the bootstrap color classes, so you'll need to go through the code looking for things like "bg-info" or "text-secondary" or "card-outline-primary". delete them, then add the appropriate style tag to replace the color. the custom color versions of my codes are simply there for convenience and to make editing things easier. i won't hunt you down and make you pay me if i see you using custom colors on a code without having bought it, haha.

how do i change how full the stat bars are?

you'll need to read through the code and find the part with the stat bars, then find the style="width:50%;" line. change 50% to any number between 0-100, with the higher the number making the bar fuller.

how do i make the background dark like in the code preview images?

i use toyhouse's night theme when i take preview images for my codes. you can change your theme settings here. but keep in mind this will only affect how the site looks to you, and not to anyone else. and while you're there, turn off WYSIWYG too if it's still on.

i tried to add an extra tab and it doesn't work/the code looks wrong after i edit it/my pictures are shrinking.

that's most likely because you have WYSIWYG still on. please, please turn it off.

i still need help!

if you're having problems, please include a link to where you're using the code, and try to include as much detail about your issue as you can, as that'll save us both some time. please don't send me a general "i need help!" message to start out with, haha.

send me a message my code thread general code help thread
