[NODEBB] Help for my custom CSS

Solved Customisation
  • @phenomlab

    I see how to change background color, text color, border color but not the progress bar with transition value.

    It’s too fast to see the code on console

    I see this in “element style” :

    transition: width 5450ms linear 0s, background-color 5450ms ease-in 0s;
    

    But I don’t no what to do with this

  • @downpw Seems like it’s contained in this block

    <div id="alert_button_1643376464937" class="alert alert-dismissable alert-success clearfix animate" component="toaster/toast" timeoutid="172" style="transition: width 5450ms linear 0s, background-color 5450ms ease-in 0s;">
    	<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-hidden="true">×</button>

    For info, you can actually pause the execution of Javascript as follows

    1. Open Developer tools, Go to Sources tab and keep it ready

    2. Now, go back and perform the actions on the App to get it to the state where it needs to be frozen.

    3. Click on the ‘Pause Script Execution’ button (first button in the list of buttons on the right corner of Sources tab) to pause the page.

    This will force the debugger to pause the execution, meaning you’ll see the below

    This will then allow you to expose the elements you need 🙂

  • @phenomlab

    Yeah I test that and I find and modify these code :

    .alert-window .alert {
    
        background-color: black;
        color: aqua;
    }
    
    .alert-window .alert.alert-success {
        color: aqua;
        border-color: aqua;
    }
    
    .alert-window .alert.animate.alert-success::before {
        background-color: red !important;
    }
    
    .alert-window .alert.animate::before {
        width: calc(100% + 50px);
    }
    

    For example, what i want here are just have animate progress bar on red but doesn’t work, she’s black.

    I close the topic on nodebb communauty. no one respond

    Only me 😄

    I’ll have a look this weekend to see if I can identify the js class but I do think this is based off another CSS value and an alpha rgba used as an overlay.

  • @phenomlab

    .alert-window .alert.animate.alert-success::before {
        background-color: red !important;
    }
    

    I have test with white background and It seems to work.
    But the red come at the middle/end (maybe a settings CSS transition) :

    alt text

    But with black background, the red is here (we see it at the end) we see nothing at all.

    Seems the background overall the animate effect :

    alt text

  • @downpw I’ve a feeling this night be related to z-index. Try setting with a high value, as this will force the animation to the front.

  • possible to delete border radius at the bottom left and right ?

    9355af8d-d9bf-40d6-abeb-84bc4e95387e-image.png

    Just border radius at the top of the first div and at the last Div bottom ?
    I would like a entirely bloc with four border radius

    Possible ?
    I play with .categories>li, .category>ul>li but it’s not what I want

    I would like to move chat bubbles and WYSIWYG at the left bottom if it’s possible, I tetst with this bit it’s not perfect :

    .taskbar .navbar-nav {
        padding-right: 1840px;
        padding-bottom: 15px;
        position: relative;
        bottom: 25px !important;
    }
    

    Thanks for your help in advance Mark 🙂

  • @DownPW Definitely possible, yes. This will work

    .categories>li, .category>ul>li {
        border-radius: 0px;
    }
    .categories>li:first-of-type {
        border-top-left-radius: 4px;
        border-top-right-radius: 4px;
    }
    .categories>li:last-of-type {
        border-bottom-left-radius: 4px;
        border-bottom-right-radius: 4px;
    }
    

    Looks like this

    80e68c63-7289-4153-aac8-52a92816074a-image.png

    You could then close the gaps between if you really wanted it as one block

    .categories>li, .category>ul>li {
        border: none;
        margin-top: 0px;
        background: #F5F5F5;
    }
    

    That gives you

  • @phenomlab Great !! Thanks you very much:)

    @phenomlab

    EDIT: Possible to do the same thing on Unread page and Recent page ?

  • Other two things 🙂

    ONE

    I would like to move chat bubbles and WYSIWYG at the left bottom if it’s possible, I test with this bit it’s not perfect :

    .taskbar .navbar-nav {
    padding-right: 1840px;
    padding-bottom: 15px;
    position: relative;
    bottom: 25px !important;
    }
    Thanks for your help in advance Mark 🙂

    TWO

    I have this problem :
    alt text

    The chat windows stays in the background even when I click on it.

    I have zindex on composer and footbar

    @phenomlab

    This should work

    .category-item:first-of-type {
        border-top-left-radius: 4px;
        border-top-right-radius: 4px;
    }
    .category-item:last-of-type {
        border-bottom-left-radius: 4px;
        border-bottom-right-radius: 4px;
    }
    
  • @DownPW

    The chat windows stays in the background even when I click on it.

    I have zindex on composer and footbar

    This should fix that

    .chat-modal {
        z-index: 5000;
    }

    chat-modal zindex and border for Unread & recent works !!!
    Thanks Mark 😉

    Just these icons to put on the bottom left:

  • @DownPW Try this

    .taskbar.navbar-fixed-bottom {
        right: auto;
        left: 0;
    }
    
  • @phenomlab said in [NODEBB] Help for my custom CSS:

    @DownPW Try this

    .taskbar.navbar-fixed-bottom {
        right: auto;
        left: 0;
    }
    

    Much cleaner than what I had found:

    .taskbar .navbar-nav {
        padding-right: 1840px;
        padding-bottom: 15px;
        position: relative;
        bottom: 25px !important;
    }
    

    I had not found this property by inspecting the code!! I wonder where you found that one 🙂

    I just added left and bottom space :

    .taskbar.navbar-fixed-bottom {
        right: auto;
        left: 10px;
        bottom: 25px;
    }
    

    RESULT:
    111bb445-d4ca-401e-a620-692b23e37f62-image.png

    Much better with footbar !
    This also allows you to leave the right side quiet already occupied by the paging block !

    Thanks my friend 😉

  • How to add icon on categories span time ?

    I will test this code for add Paragraph FA icon for example :

    [component="topic/header"] span.timeago:before {
        content: "\f1dd";
        margin-right: 5px;
        margin-left: 5px;
    }
    

    Result 😞

  • @DownPW that won’t work unless you add a font family to go with it - any Unicode characters typically require an associated font family. Try adding

    font-family: "font awesome 5 free"; to the CSS you already have.

  • @phenomlab

    I have test this :

    [component="topic/header"] span.timeago:before {
        content: "\f1c0";
        font-family: "font awesome 5 free";
        margin-right: 5px;
        margin-left: 5px;
        color: black;
    }
    

    But doesn’t work

    8ed44f06-ca16-4a7c-9a7b-e46a9b6fa339-image.png

  • @DownPW does it work if you change it to
    Font Awesome 5 Free ? Might need to access your site directly to test this as it works for mine and should also work for you.

    One last thing you can try is adding the below into the CSS class - sometimes needed as the FA5 free icons are solid only, therefore may require

    font-weight: 900;

    Let me know how you get on

    @Panda because there is no match for the DNS entry specified. The receiving web server parses the headers looking for a destination hostname to match, and anything the web server is unable to resolve will be sent back to the root.

    @Panda said in Nodebb design:

    One negative is not being so good for SEO as more Server side rendered forums, if web crawlers dont run the JS to read the forum.

    From recollection, Google and Bing have the capability to read and process JS, although it’s not in the same manner as a physical person will consume content on a page. It will be seen as plain text, but will be indexed. However, it’s important to note that Yandex and Baidu will not render JS, although seeing as Google has a 90% share of the content available on the web in terms of indexing, this isn’t something you’ll likely lose sleep over.

    @Panda said in Nodebb design:

    The “write api” is preferred for server-to-server interactions.

    This is mostly based around overall security - you won’t typically want a client machine changing database elements or altering data. This is why you have “client-side” which could be DOM manipulation etc, and “server-side” which performs more complex operations as it can communicate directly with the database whereas the client cannot (and if it can, then you have a serious security flaw). Reading from the API is perfectly acceptable on the client-side, but not being able to write.

    A paradigm here would be something like SNMP. This protocol exists as a UDP (UDP is very efficient, as it is “fire and forget” and does not wait for a response like TCP does) based service which reads performance data from a remote source, thus enabling an application to parse that data for use in a monitoring application. In all cases, SNMP access should be “RO” (Read Only) and not RW (Read Write). It is completely feasible to assume complete control over a firewall for example by having RW access to SNMP and then exposing it to the entire internet with a weak passphrase.

    You wouldn’t do it (at least, I hope you wouldn’t) and the same ethic applies to server-side rendering and the execution of commands.

    @eveh Welcome board 🙂

    The code you are referring to is custom written as no such functionality exists under NodeBB. However, adding the functionality is relatively trivial. Below are the required steps

    Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-header Add the below code to your header, and save once completed <ol id="mainbanner" class="breadcrumb"><li id="addtext">Your Title Goes Here</li></ol> Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-js and add the below code, then save $(document).ready(function() { $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) { // Initialise mainbanner ID, but hide it from view $('#mainbanner').hide(); var pathname = window.location.pathname; if (pathname === "/") { $("#addtext").text("Your Title"); $('#mainbanner').show(); } else {} // If we want to add a title to a sub page, uncomment the below and adjust accordingly //if (pathname === "/yourpath") { //$("#addtext").text("Your Title"); //$('#mainbanner').show(); //} }); }); Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-css and add the below CSS block .breadcrumb { right: 0; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; background: #0086c4; color: #ffffff; width: 100vw; position: relative; margin-left: -50vw; left: 50%; top: 50px; position: fixed; z-index: 1020; }

    Note, that you will need to adjust your CSS code to suit your own site / requirements.
