NodeBB customisation

@jac You’d need to target the element you want, and change the font being called - an example

h1.title {
font-family: "mygooglefont";
}

@phenomlab Thank you, I’ll take a look

[JAC]

@phenomlab without taking every idea from yourself…

The banner effect that you have in place was it easy to do?

This is something I wanted to do originally with photos, but the general look and feel of the wide banner effect with the font on does look really impressive.

I’m wondering if it would look any better than what I currently have?

@jac Do you mean this part ?

Yes mate

@jac Easily done, but it’s not entirely “simple”

This is the CSS that handles that

.Hero {
    background: #8A8C8E;
    position: sticky;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    margin-left: -50vw;
    margin-right: -50vw;
    width: 100vw;
    z-index: 500;
    padding-top: 10px;
    margin-top: -20px;
    margin-bottom: 30px;
    height: 70px;
    color: #ffffff;
}
ul.PageHero-items li {
    list-style: none;
    text-align: center;
}
.PageHero-title {
    vertical-align: middle;
    font-size: 3rem!important;
    color: #ffffff;
    font-family: Poppins;
    display: inline-block;
    margin-left: 15px;
    max-width: 800px;
}
h2.PageHero-title::after {
    display: flex;
    margin: -10px 0 0!important;
    font-size: 2rem;
    font-weight: 300;
    -webkit-background-clip: text!important;
    -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
    background: -webkit-linear-gradient(#fff,#aaa);
    line-height: 2.0;
    font-family: poppins;
}

You’ll then need a global widget with this code

<header class="Hero PageHero">
<div class="container">
<ul class="PageHero-items">
<li class="item-title">
<h2 class="PageHero-title">{title}</h2>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</header>

Thank you matey, appreciated

@phenomlab I have ran into the not entirely “simple” part .

[JAC]

@jac look to have fixed

…ish

[phenomlab]

@jac That’s caused by the recent cards plugin, which is being loaded first. You’ll need to remove or re-position that widget

[JAC]

@phenomlab Thanks mate, I’ve been trying to rearrange it so the recent cards widget falls under the banner.

[phenomlab]

@jac Not hard to do (potentially) but it would mean changing the loading order of the plugins. Let me have a look.

Many thanks mate.

I think the issue falls as one widget is global and the other is situated under categories.

[phenomlab]

@jac Unfortunately, no. It’s the loading order of the plugin. I’ve changed it, but it doesn’t seem to have any impact, so the only “fix” is to remove the recent cards widget or place it elsewhere.

Thanks for trying mate.

That’s fine with me for it to be placed elsewhere.

@jac Ok. If you check your site, you’ll see it’s been moved to drafts for the time being so won’t be displayed.
