    @DownPW yes, that’s just going to be positioning. Remember we are using position: absolute; and your CSS is likely to differ so you may need to tweak the positioning slightly to suit.

  • @crazycells Ok, so, I found some time to look at this properly today.

    Here’s the result

    Notice the “Twitter-esque” verified badge?

    I found this

    https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Twitter_Verified_Badge.svg and downloaded it, then uploaded it to /assets/public/images

    Then, I used the below CSS code

        li[component="post"] a[href*="/groups/verified"] {
            position: absolute !important;
            left: 2px;
            z-index: 2;
            margin-top: 1px;
            border-radius: 999px !important;
            line-height: 14px;
            display: block;
            height: auto;
            margin-left: 0px !important;
            background: transparent !important;
            width: auto;
        }
    
        li[component=post] a[href*="/groups/verified"]:before {
            background: url(https://sudonix.org/assets/images/Twitter_Verified_Badge.svg) !important;
            content: "";
            height: 22px;
            width: 22px;
            display: block;
        }
        li[component=post] a[href*="/groups/verified"]:after {
            background: #ffffff !important;
            height: 9px;
            width: 9px;
            content: "";
            display: block;
            top: 10px;
            position: absolute;
            z-index: -1;
            left: 12px;
        }
    

    Some points to consider

    • The CSS code extensively uses :before and :after pseudo elements. Essentially, :before adds the SVG icon and positions it, and :after adds a smaller “white square” which is conveniently positioned behind the :before element using z:-index: -1;

    The purpose of the “white square” is to provide a dirty way to fill in the transparency which is present in the SVG so it looks right.

    This is pretty tough to display on mobile viewports, so it’s best to hide it completely using this code

    @media (max-width: 767px) {
        li[component="post"] a[href*="/groups/verified"].badge, .account a[href*="/groups/verified"].badge {
                display: none !important;
            }
    

    EDIT: Just realised that this icon (being a group) is also displayed on the user’s profile page, so we’ll need CSS to make that look good too…

    I’ve absolutely no idea who this guy is… 🙂

    Here it is

        .account a[href*="/groups/verified"] {
            position: absolute !important;
            z-index: 2;
            background: transparent !important;
            margin-left: -10px;
        }
        .account a[href*="/groups/verified"]:after {
            background: #ffffff !important;
            height: 9px;
            width: 10px;
            content: "";
            display: block;
            top: 10px;
            position: absolute;
            z-index: -1;
            left: 12px;
        }
        .account a[href*="/groups/verified"]:before {
            background: url(https://sudonix.org/assets/images/Twitter_Verified_Badge.svg) !important;
            content: "";
            height: 22px;
            width: 22px;
            display: block;
        }
    

    Enjoy.

    hi @phenomlab, we should be able to download this…

    https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Twitter_Verified_Badge.svg

    …and recolor it accordingly and upload it to the forum the same way, right? These colors are reminding everyone “twitter” , I believe it would be nicer if it is changed according to the personality of the forum, so it will look more original while maintaining “meaning”…

    I think here on this forum, “sudonix orange” color would look cooler than “twitter blue”

  • additionally, these pages need some adjustments: https://sudonix.org/user/phenomlab

    @crazycells that’s odd. Shouldn’t look like that (at least, it doesn’t on my device). What device are you using?

    @crazycells hmm. That’s a good idea. Let me have a look at that.

  • I had already reported this little problem to you @phenomlab

    The problem only occurs on the profile of other users and not on his own profile. (of memories)

    For my part, I solved this bug with the following code (to be adapted)

    /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    /*-------------------      USER PROFILE ANIMATION     ------------------------*/
    /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    
    /*[component="profile/change/picture"] img {
        z-index: 300 !important;
    }*/
    
    
    .avatar-wrapper:before {
        animation-iteration-count: infinite;
        animation: pulsate 4s ease-out infinite;
        border-radius: 50%;
        border: 15px solid var(--bs-link-color);
        content: "";
        height: 180px;
        left: -19px;
        top: -19px;
        opacity: 0;
        position: absolute;
        width: 180px;
        z-index: -1;
    }
    
    /* Change z-index Cover img profile for animation effect */
    .cover, .cover>.container {
        z-index: -2;
    }
    
    /* Avatar on user profile page */
    .account .avatar-wrapper {
        /* border: 4px solid var(--bs-link-color); */
        margin-right: 20px;
    }

        margin-right: 20px;
    }
    

    @DownPW yes, I remember, but anything that uses absolute positioning will always be problematic when it comes to dynamically placing elements when the browser window is resized.

    I have another idea which I’m going to try. If that doesn’t work, I’ll likely remove this altogether.

    @DownPW yeap, you are absolutely right. I have just checked, it is not on my profile, but anyone else…

    @crazycells This proved to be much harder than I anticipated. The issue here is that the background is already transparent, so if you make the rosette itself transparent, you can no longer use the :after element as it’s designed to fill in the check mark - not the remainder of the image.

    The only real way this would be possible and without losing yourself in overlapping CSS code would be to edit the image with Illustrator, or InkScape (Open Source) and change the rosette and border colour according to taste.

    Ultimately, it’s not possible to change this on the fly using CSS without significant work. As a result of this, plus your idea yesterday, I have elected to use a Font Awesome icon (Shield with Check Mark) and have made it “Sudonix Orange”.

    @DownPW so me a favor, and let me know if the CSS you provided works as expected when browsing users as a guest? I’m not using the same CSS, but a slightly modified version.

    Interested to get other experiences.

    @phenomlab thanks for the explanation. I assumed it would not be easy, and additionally, if it is easy for you, it was going to be harder for me… since it is already hard for you, I give up 😄

    by the way, I was referring to the orange color in your logo, but I see that the stars are “sudonix orange” and the checkmark is changing depending on the theme you are in…

    But in any case, I believe these more “coherent” colors definitely look better than the previous version… 👍

    @crazycells yes, I noticed that too. It’s because that specific element uses the link color variable which changes with the theme. I need to create a static entry for that as it’s not intended behavior.

    I have added a badge for admin group users, my code works good :

    @Panda said in Spam spam spam: ok, yes Ive seen the queue, it shows IP, but doesnt have a field for comments from registrant. It’s not designed for that. It merely serves as a gateway between posts appearing on your form or not. @Panda said in Spam spam spam: It would be better if nodebb had this plugin included in ACP list, as not only then do you know its approved and should work, but many people cant or dont want to use CLI on the server That’s a question for the NodeBB devs but in all honesty you can’t not use the CLI when installing nodebb so to be this isn’t a big deal.

    @DownPW exactly. Not really a new concept, and in all honesty, not something I’ve ever used. If you consider the need to add links and references, or citations, you’d need to be able to see other parts of the screen!

    @eeeee if you’re using the console, you could try node app.js > app.log 2>&1 This would redirect stdout to a file named app.log and redirect stderr to stdout. I’m not sure about standard logging under NodeBB, but there is an error log located at logs/error.log. Failing that, you could always stop the NodeBB service then use ./nodebb dev from the console which would then provide debug output.
