Fast path: pick visitor counter style -> pick mood -> only fill Custom Mood Text when mood is set to Custom.
Social Feature Fields (Current Stack)
- Profile Visitor Counter:
Hidden, Simple, Animated, Retro. - Profile Mood Status:
None, Happy, Sad, Excited, Tired, Custom. - Custom Mood Text: text field used when Mood Status is
Custom.
Social Features controls from your settings screen.
Accuracy note: your active field map and enhancements logic use visitor counter styles
Hidden/Simple/Animated/Retro.
How It Behaves
- Counter Hidden: visitor module does not render.
- Counter Simple/Animated/Retro: renders with style-specific display and optional recent visitor block.
- Mood Custom: Custom Mood Text is displayed in mood badge area.
Social Features Workflow
- Set Visitor Counter to Hidden/Simple/Animated/Retro based on theme density.
- Set Mood Status to a preset or Custom.
- If Custom: set Custom Mood Text in a short phrase (2-6 words).
- Save and verify on profile page (not only in settings panel).
- Check mobile header for overflow or cramped text.
