  • Hi

    In Harmony Theme, how can I change the tagging functionality. right now its take user-slug / username. I should take fullname of the user. Actually in my project user’s fullname is automatically added while registering to forum.

    @Vijay-Kumavat Are you referring to the user assigned at registration?

    @phenomlab ,

    Yes i did this now at the time of user registering it takes fullname with current-time.

    Before this it takes

    email : abc@xyz.com
    username : abc-xyz-com
    fullname : abc def.
    

    Now i set it to :

    email : abc@xyz.com
    username : abc-def-2343423423
    fullname : abc def.
    

    This is fine for now. 😜

    Now, I want do this with already registered users. Because while tagging user by someone its display user email 🤔

    @Vijay-Kumavat So do you want to tag by email, or by display name?

    @Vijay-Kumavat I think an extension to nodebb-plugin-mentions would be necessary for this to work. If you look at /admin/plugins/mentions you’ll see the available options.

    @Vijay-Kumavat So is this now working based on modifications you’ve made to library.js ?

    @phenomlab yes but only in post preview section only. before submitting post in post section its shows me email-id.

    how to replace this with fullname only. ( Also in autocomplete dropdown)

    @Vijay-Kumavat This is likely best answered by the NodeBB core devs themselves. This will require an additional feature which extends the mentions plugin.

    @dave1904 that’s a really good point actually. I know it was there previously on Persona, but you’re right - no such function exists on harmony. However, putting something in place to mimick the behaviour of Persona won’t be hard from the js standpoint, although I wonder if perhaps we should ask the NodeBB developers is this feature was overlooked?

    @DownPW I see why. The code relies on the existence of [component="topic/quickreply/container"] However, this by definition means that the below has to be enabled [image: aeef638f-4188-489d-a9f2-f3a26dbca9d8-image.png] It will then work [image: 7fb38631-e0f3-46ef-b652-00929d927b13-image.png] For some unknown reason, this is hidden in Harmony, and only shows if you select it. In v2, it seems that the <section> is deleted altogether in Persona if “Quick Reply” is disabled, meaning it won’t fire as it can’t locate that specific component. The downside is that you might not want the quick reply function, but I think it’s a PITA to scroll up to the top of the post just to reply, so I have it on

    @cagatay yes, that will be fine. Just watch for potential caching conflicts as you will have two sites writing to the one instance of iframely.

    @kurulumu-net Not specifically, but you should review this post from the very large thread as it will save you a lot of time. There’s significant customisation on the Ghost side of things, but not in NodeBB https://community.nodebb.org/post/86022
