Recent Cards plugin customization

@phenomlab said in Recent Cards plugin customization:

@crazycells Happy to help. That function wasn’t always there - I just finished writing it

Thanks a lot

[phenomlab]

@crazycells No problems. Feel free to comment out line

console.log("data-cid " + dataId + " is " + color);

From that function as it’s only used to ensure the script is picking up the relevant background-color from the category.

@phenomlab I think in dark mode, it is going back to normal. Is there an easy way to keep the same border color in dark mode as well?

[phenomlab]

@crazycells Dark mode shouldn’t have any impact - can you provide a URL where I can see this ?

[phenomlab]

@phenomlab Yes, I see the issue. It’s because of lazy CSS classes meaning this below will override everything else when body.lights-out is appended to the existing CSS class.

body.lights-out .recent-cards .recent-card-container .recent-card {
    background-color: #2E2E2E;
    border: #848484;
}

You should be able to work around that by adding this into your custom CSS

body.lights-out .recent-cards .recent-card-container .recent-card {
    border: 1px solid #848484;
}

Let me know how you get on.

@phenomlab Yes, I found the lines and fixed them

Thank you very much. Since the recent card plugin-related codes are not included in the night mode plugin; we have previously added some custom codes for recent cards… Apparently, those codes were creating the problem. Now, it is fixed

hi @phenomlab , somehow recent cards are not clickable in my forum after using these codes, however, it works fine here…

Normally, when I click a card it takes me to that topic, however, nothing happens now.

I use this CSS:

li.col-md-3.col-sm-6.col-xs-12.recent-card-container {
    width: 290px !important;
}

this JS code:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
        $('.recent-card-container').each(function(i) {
            var dataId = $(this).attr("data-cid");
            var color = $('[role="presentation"]', this).css("background-color");
            console.log("data-cid " + dataId + " is " + color);
            $('[data-cid="' + dataId + '"] .recent-card').attr("style", "border-color: " + color);
        });
    });
});

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
   var categoryColor = $('[role="presentation"].icon').css("background-color");
                $('li.topic-owner-post:nth-child(1)').css('border-color', categoryColor);
    });
});


window.addEventListener("load", () => {
    // CHROME
    if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Chrome") != -1) {
        console.log("Google Chrome");
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $('.carousel-mode').bxSlider({
                auto: false,
                autoControls: true,
                stopAutoOnClick: true,
                pager: false,
                keyboardEnabled: true,
                touchEnabled: false
            });
        });
    } else {
        console.log("Others");
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $('.carousel-mode').bxSlider({
                auto: false,
                autoControls: true,
                stopAutoOnClick: true,
                pager: false,
                keyboardEnabled: true,
                touchEnabled: true
            });
        });
    }
});

@crazycells Strange. Are there any errors appearing in the console at your end ? When I look at the console itself, I see

However, this doesn’t seem to have any impact on the recent cards - the links appear to work fine. I think this may be a caching issue at your end ?

[crazycells]

@phenomlab hmm, I tried on different browsers with iPhone.

First of all, when I delete this code:

window.addEventListener("load", () => {
    // CHROME
    if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Chrome") != -1) {
        console.log("Google Chrome");
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $('.carousel-mode').bxSlider({
                auto: false,
                autoControls: true,
                stopAutoOnClick: true,
                pager: false,
                keyboardEnabled: true,
                touchEnabled: false
            });
        });
    } else {
        console.log("Others");
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $('.carousel-mode').bxSlider({
                auto: false,
                autoControls: true,
                stopAutoOnClick: true,
                pager: false,
                keyboardEnabled: true,
                touchEnabled: true
            });
        });
    }
});

then, everything is normal, cards are clickable but of course, sliding does not work.

However, when I activate it, I could not click the cards on Safari, but it was working on Firefox. I can slide the cards on both browsers by the way.

So, I guess like Google Chrome, Safari has its own problems with this sliding application?

[crazycells]

I forgot to write… I do not see any errors on the console.

[phenomlab]

@crazycells odd. Should actually work on Safari. Can you change the line under “Others” to be touchEnabled: false and see if that allows you to select the href links ?

Obviously, save the code and reload the site before testing again.

with this change, in both Safari and Firefox browsers, I can click the cards and go to the topics, however sliding does not work.

[phenomlab]

@crazycells yes, unsurprising as they both use the webkit CSS rendering engine. This will be the same bug I reference earlier that affects Google Chrome. Not much that can be done sadly.

[phenomlab]

@pobojmoks that’s easily done by modifying the code provided here so that it targets background rather than border

In essence, the below should work

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
        $('.recent-card-container').each(function(i) {
            var dataId = $(this).attr("data-cid");
            var color = $('[role="presentation"]', this).css("background-color");
            console.log("data-cid " + dataId + " is " + color);
            $('[data-cid="' + dataId + '"] .recent-card').attr("style", "background-color: " + color);
        });
    });
});
