[NodeBB] [JS SCRIPT/CSS] Theme Switcher

Customisation
  • DownPWundefined

    Hello all,

    – I open this topic for more clarity in agreement with @phenomlab 🙂

    – Here the old topic for reference:

    Information

    – This JS and CSS script creates a button on the navbar allowing you to switch between different CSS style sheets.

    – This allows you to offer several themes to your users without going through the tedious and poorly documented bootstrap method on the NodeBB forum.

    – Note that your CSS stylesheets do not overide the code on ACP/custom CSS/ panel. They are in addition.

    Javascript Code

    – Here is the Javascript code with comments in English and French.

    ⚠️ Adapt the code to your architecture (Path and files names)

    // ------------------------------------------
// Theme Switcher
// ------------------------------------------
//We generate a random character string to assign a version number to the CSS file.
// On génère une chaine de caractère aléatoire pour affecter un numéro de version au fichier CSS. 
function generateRandomString(length) {

  var text = "";
  var possible = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";

  for (var i = 0; i < length; i++) {
      text += possible.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length));
  }

  return text;
}

$(document).ready(function ()
{
var string = generateRandomString(10);
$("#random_string").text(string);
// This variable gets the theme ID 
// Cette variable obtient l'ID du thème
var whichTheme = localStorage.getItem("theme");
// This variable gets the active theme's actual URL
//Cette variable obtient l'URL réelle du thème actif
var activeTheme = localStorage.getItem("activeTheme");
// This variable appends the dropdown list to the existing panel
// Cette variable ajoute la liste déroulante au panneau existant
var panel = $('<li id="switcher" class="dropdown text-center"> \
<label for="theme-control-list-check" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" id="theme_dropdown" title="" role="button" data-original-title="Theme" aria-expanded="false"> \

    – It’s a base adapted to my forum, it’s up to you to adapt it to yours if certain things do not suit you.

    @DownPW said in [NodeBB] [JS SCRIPT/CSS] Theme Switcher:

    ⚠️ Adapt the code to your architecture (Path and files names)

    How do I know the path names and files?

    @elhana-fine

    – Firstly, you must have created your CUSTOM CSS files who correspond to your themes.

    1 CSS file = 1 theme

    – The CSS files that you will have created before with your CUSTOM CSS code inside, must be uploaded to your server in the public directory of NodeBB with subdirectory if you want or not :

    /home/YOUR_USER/PATH_TO_YOUR_NODEBB_DIRECTORY\public

    That path correspond to :

    https://yourdomain.com/assets

    And Like that, for example:

    <li><a id="default" href="#" rel="/assets/client.css?v=e02phpkima0">Default</a></li> \
<li><a id="default dark" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/default_dark.css">Default Dark</a></li> \
<li><a id="Light Flat" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/flat_light.css">Flat Light </a></li> \
<li><a id="Light Flat Dark" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/flat_dark.css">Flat Dark</a></li> \
<li><a id="Dark Neon Aqua" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/dark_neon_aqua.css">Dark Neon Aqua</a></li> \
<li><a id="Dark Neon Blue" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/dark_neon_blue.css">Dark Neon Blue</a></li> \
<li><a id="Dark Neon Green" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/dark_neon_green.css">Dark Neon Green</a></li> \
<li><a id="Dark Neon Solary" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/dark_neon_solary.css">Dark Neon Solary</a></li> \
<li><a id="Dark Neon White" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/dark_neon_white.css"">Dark Neon White</a></li> \
<li><a id="Eva 00" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/eva_00.css">Eva.00</a></li> \
<li><a id="Eva 01" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/eva_01.css">Eva.01</a></li> \
<li><a id="Eva 01 Purple Green"href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/eva_01_purple_green.css">Eva.01: Purple-Green</a></li> \
<li><a id="Eva 02" href="#" rel="/assets/customcss/eva_02.css">Eva.02: Red-Orange</a></li> \

    That why you must adapt the code of JS Script to your architecture (Path and CUSTOM CSS files names)

    @DownPW where did this line come from ? This isn’t in the original code

    </.fal.fa-layer-group-oli>

    That should be just
