    @phenomlab actually, it does not work on our forum…

    You are sure that that plugin does that, right? I guess it might be because we have NodeBB installed as a subfolder /forum … Do you think this might be the reason?

    The topic is a little old so sorry to revive 😊 My forum is sooo small and to be honest just for my learning so there is nothing on it. When i am happy with it I will ‘advertise it’ for its purpose.

    Anyway this is a really nice plugin and I also use. I get a little strange behavior but it is not when i hover over all the time.

    If i click on it it just goes green.

    As you see in other areas that it seems to be ok. (although with the only deafult themes I like it is not so good )

    Any ideas? I think i have uninstalled NodeBB and started again about 4 times haha so maybe traces of ‘bad stuff’ 😊

    @Sampo2910 hey. The behavior you were seeing is in fact normal. The card will only display in the actual post view and not in the main list. Clicking the avatar in the recent view (or any others) simply selects that post for multiple functions which explains the reason for turning green, and the avatar replaced by a check mark.

    @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.

    @phenomlab Ah, got it working! I reversed the CSS addition to put z index high, and then I could see another error box saying fork title must be at least 3 characters. So made the new fork title longer and button responded.

    @cagatay You’d target the body tag and use the below line of CSS background: url(/assets/customcss/backgrounds/default/default.png) no-repeat center center fixed; Obviously, you need to change the path to suit where your image is being stored. More info around the background property can be found here https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_background.php
