This isn't technically a new site but it has been radically redesigned and now relies on the data-form module.
As the beta label suggests, I am still in the process of polishing the new design; taken from RobElliott's MicroBlue. If there is anything wrong or if you would like to suggest any improvements/changes, please let me know on the site's forum.
The site has once again had up update: simpler design and includes an example (albeit with lorem ipsum at the moment). Anyway, please check it out and let me know what you think.
I would hide #page-title in css and put a _template - title in there that would use %%form_data{fullname}%% to eliminate the hyphen and the small characters.
Would it also not be more interesting to allow wiki-syntax in the fields?
Done. Thanks for the tips.
Is there a way to hide the output from a form entry? As now the name section is duplicated.
I would like to see your source if possible
Do you mean of "_template"? Here you go:
[[module CSS arguments...]]
#page-title{
display:none;
}
.form-table{
border-spacing:20px 50px;
}
.form-labels{
vertical-align: top;
font-style:italic;
font-weight:bold;
}
[[/module]]
[[div style="font-size:180%; font-weight:800; margin-top:30px; border-bottom:1px solid gray;"]]
%%form_data{name}%%
[[/div]]
[[div style="float:right; text-align:right; padding:5px; margin:5px; border:1px dotted gray;"]]
[[button print style="background-image: url(http://www.wikidot.com/local--files/files/document-print.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom right; padding-right: 20px;color: #444"]]

Have now set it up so the Title is shown on the right and can be used to quickly describe your role/profession (see the example).
What I'd like to happen is that when the user is editing their CV, there's a hint about this (other wise users may just write their name twice). Is there a way to show text at the top of the data form without it showing on the page?
Okay here are some tips:
In a _template you normaly have two sections:
If you use the"====" with a dataform… the form will not be shown, meaning there will be no default "table" display of the form in the "view"- mode (this is the oposite of "edit"- mode).
So if you do this, you can format all your data from the form in the way that you like.
for example
The name is: %%form_data{fullname}%%
In this case only the name will be shown…
if you give ma access to your page I can easely show you.
I also use a trick to hide the word "title" and replace it in this case with "your name" but it involves some complex CSS-ing.
Hinting is by the way a standard option you can choose for every field in you form… read the documentation on http://www.wikidot.com/doc:data-forms
I have set up a test section for you to play around with: http://www.havemycv.com/test:me and http://www.havemycv.com/test:_template
If you could demonstrate there what you are describing, I'll be very grateful.
Actually, I think I now understand what you mean. I will give it a go in the test area.
Ok, I have set up the _template using the ==== method (thank-you Steven).

And a slightly cleaner (design-wise) CV page: http://www.havemycv.com/joe-bloggs
Let me know what you reckon.
Nice!
A few small things:
As I said, they're minor things. For the most part it looks great.

I'm used to pound symbols having two dashes in the middle
In the UK it only has one dash in the middle

Well there you go! :) I don't see many pound symbols at all, nor do I use them, so that explains my ignorance about that.
On a website where I was hosting my CV, I'd like it to have the same symbol as what my potential employers would be paying me in (most likely Aussie $), but for people in the UK, you'd expect exactly what is up there at the moment.
It's one of those regional changes that doesn't actually mean much, but is noticeable… like alternative spelling for words like "synchronised" and "synchronized".

The double line issue should now be fixed
I thought "CV" was a UK only term; I was under the impression the rest of the world used resume…?
The SUO code doesn't appear to work in custom footers :(
I've heard both "CV" and "Resume" used in Australia…
Some interesting info from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curriculum_vitae
In the United Kingdom, a CV is short (usually a maximum of 2 sides of A4 paper), and therefore contains only a summary of the job seeker's employment history, qualifications and some personal information.
In the United States and Canada, a CV is used in academic circles and medical careers as a "replacement" for a résumé and is far more comprehensive; the term résumé is used for most recruitment campaigns.
In the European Union, there has been an attempt to develop a standardized CV format known as Europass (in 2004 by the European Parliament and European Commission) and promoted by the EU to ease skilled migration between member countries, although this is not widely used in most contexts.
Also, Brunhilda here called this page on my site my "professional CV", so it seems the term is used in Serbia too: http://shane.wikidot.com/experience
… so, much more widespread than you thought ;-) Just perhaps there are different uses / definitions in each country.

Also, Brunhilda here called this page on my site my "professional CV"
It is the most common word used for a resume in Serbia, and all other Balcanic countries (pronounced as in English /si: vi:/), besides the other word kurikulum (pronounced just like that: /kurikulum/), and I also can confirm it is used in Spain, too, besides the Spanish word curriculo, altough maybe more in written than in spoken language. I think this is because of English influence to other languages, so most of them accept English word…

It's not English, it's Latin: Curriculum Vitae. It means "the course of my life."
"Résumé" is of course French, as is obvious from all the accents.

Well, it is Latin. But it is used in English. And through English, other languages use it, too… :)
I've learnt, too. Didn't know the real meaning. Thanks, Rurwin! :)
Vir bonus miser vocari, at esse non potest miser.
Ok, so it has taken me awhile to update this but hopefully the new symbol is a little more universal: http://www.havemycv.com/
Overall the website is great. It has a clear purpose, and fulfils that purpose well. In particular I like how clean & simple it is, whilst still providing subtle extras like a contact form and print link for each CV.

This is why i have joined here !! i have learned alot today about CS. Thank you all for discussing about the source codes.
Ok, yet another re-design/tweak. Have been away from Wikidot for awhile so thought I'd spruce up the site a little.
Please let me know what you think: http://havemycv.com/
