    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

    62ca02ad-f55a-42bb-84b5-0d38b3d765a8-image.png

    <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.

    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

    This should fix that

    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 😉

    @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.

    [component="topic/header"] span.timeago:before {
        content: "\f1c0";

        margin-right: 5px;
        margin-left: 5px;
        color: black;
    }

    @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 said in Interesting Widget code, but can’t fetch API: How did you drop that widget into the post there? I hadnt seen this BSgenerator anywhere on sudonix site, do you use it somewhere already? Yes, here https://sudonix.org/topic/414/corporate-bullshit-generator?_=1687774393044 It’s not a “post” or “topic” in the common sense. It is actually a page in it’s own right and leverages nodebb-plugin-custom-pages. This in turn creates a new “route” which behaves like a page, meaning it is then exposed for widgets. @Panda said in Interesting Widget code, but can’t fetch API: Also can you explain more what you mean by calling the code externally. In my API call example, how would I go about doing that? By this, I mean create all the required code in an external JS file that is reachable by the NodeBB instance - so, in “public” for example - or in my case /public/js. The widget then “calls” that file and because it runs outside of the scope of NodeBB, you just need to return the values to the widget. Hope this makes sense?

    @cagatay you’ll need to define this in the body tag (or another element if you want greater or more granular targets) - for example body { font-family: "Poppins"; font-size: 16px; } Essentially, you use the font-size CSS directive.

    @mike-jones Yes, you’ll typically see this type of behaviour if there is another style that has higher priority in the sense that yours will be overridden. Using !important will override the higher preference, but should be used sparingly rather than everywhere.
