[NODEBB] Welcome Message

Solved Customisation
  • Hi @phenomlab

    I see a welcome Message at the right of your website

    3effa4e1-3053-49dc-a323-a93d9f19089e-image.png

    I have an HTML widget on ACP with this code :

    <div class="getUsername">Bonjour, <a href="/me"><span class="username">MY USERNAME</span></a></div>
    

    And my CSS :

    .getUsername {
    padding-top: 20px;
    padding-bottom: 5px;
    text-align: right;
    font-size: 90%;
    line-height: 2.4;
    font-weight: bold;
    }

    Everything is good except the main one, the display of the username.

    I saw that you used the /me on aHref, that can be added in the URL (https://XXXXX.XX/me) to point to the user profile

    But how do you display the name of it because my HTML code displays what I ask it to display. In other words “MY USERNAME”

    In other words how do you display the name of the user? With JS?

    8a81bea0-8433-4949-b23d-e68002528812-image.png

    Other things, At this time it is indicated “good evening”.

    Quiz of when is the start of the day 🙂

    good idea @phenomlab, this should be implemented into core IMO.

    @jac @DownPW here’s the function I put together than will need to be added into your Custom JS

    $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function (data) {
    function updateUsername() {
    $('.getUsername .username').text(app.user.username);
    }
    if (document.readyState === 'loading') {
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', updateUsername);
    } else {
    updateUsername();
    }
    var thehours = new Date().getHours();
    var themessage;
    var morning = ('Good morning');
    var afternoon = ('Good afternoon');
    var evening = ('Good evening');
    if (thehours >= 0 && thehours < 12) {
    themessage = morning;
    } else if (thehours >= 12 && thehours < 17) {
    themessage = afternoon;
    } else if (thehours >= 17 && thehours < 24) {
    themessage = evening;
    }
    $('.getUsername').prepend(themessage);
    });

    Then use a custom HTML widget with the below

    <!-- IF loggedIn -->
    <div class="getUsername">, <a href="/me"><span class="username"></span></a></div>
    <!-- ENDIF loggedIn -->

    @phenomlab No idea if this is for me or @DownPW but it is very clever indeed! does it show on mobile?

    The idea is fantastic Mark, is there a point where you think yes my ideas are used by others but having the same features across a few forums, does that bother you or would you say this is why you created Sudonix?

    The firm I work for uses a worfkflows system which I wrote from scratch. It’s used to track the onboarding, departures, application requests etc of users, and is also an audit source. Been a developer for years…

    .getUsername {
    display: none;
    }

  • What is your CSS for this @phenomlab ?
    I have small bug on Unread categorie for example with this code I wrote:

    .getUsername {
    float: right;
    font-family: 'Poppins';
    font-size: 1.6rem;
    line-height: 1.8;
    color: #898989;
    font-weight: 400;
    }

    2040e9b0-d14f-48a8-a681-782667985337-image.png

    @downpw I use the below - essentially, using padding to overcome this

    .getUsername {
    padding-top: 20px;
    text-align: right;
    }
  • @downpw Sure. Very simple - just place this in your mobile CSS block

    .getUsername {
      display: none;
    }
    

    @phenomlab
    To hide only on mobile / tablet you can use max-width,
    For example:

    @media (max-width: 970px) {
    .getUsername {
    display: none;
    }
    }

        }
        if (document.readyState === 'loading') {
            document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', updateUsername);
        } else {
            updateUsername();
        }
        var thehours = new Date().getHours();
    	var themessage;
    	var morning = ('Good morning');
    	var afternoon = ('Good afternoon');
    	var evening = ('Good evening');
    
    	if (thehours >= 0 && thehours < 12) {
    		themessage = morning; 
    
    	} else if (thehours >= 12 && thehours < 17) {
    		themessage = afternoon;
    
    	} else if (thehours >= 17 && thehours < 24) {
    		themessage = evening;
    	}
    
    	$('.getUsername').prepend(themessage);
    });
    

    Then use a custom HTML widget with the below

    <!-- IF loggedIn -->

  • Hello,

    I have a question regarding a problem my user is experiencing with this Welcome message.
    This user is not in France.

    It’s 7:40 a.m. for him, so 1:40 a.m. in France, and the banner wishes me a “good afternoon.” I don’t know what time zone it thinks I’m in, but it’s wrong…

    And nodebb displays 11:40 p.m. on the right once posted, so GMT.
    Which isn’t the afternoon either.

    How does this script get the time? It looks like it’s getting the time from the client, meaning the computer or device of the person visiting your site.
    But it seems that in this specific case, the correct time isn’t being retrieved.

    How can I fix this?

    How can I fix this?

    @DownPW the ‘js’ code for the banner takes the time from the client, so what it displays really depends on the regional settings for the operating system.

    I’ve not seen this issue myself but would like to see some examples of screenshots if possible.

    @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.

    @phenomlab Very very great Mark Thanks again, It’s perfect now ! –> I share my code that I modified. I’ve added French and English comments. If you see things to change Mark, don’t hesitate.

    @RiekMedia hi. Just following up on this thread (I know it’s old) but was curious to understand if it’s still an issue or not ?
