Threaded post support for NodeBB

Let's Build It
  • @phenomlab thank you Mark i did not read this one.

  • @cagatay no problems. Easily missed!!

  • @DownPW said in Threading support for NodeBB:

    I think I understand by reading the code that it is necessary to specify the classes chnaged in the function.js (with add .threaded) but I don’t really see how to add more

    Can you post the current function code you have?

  • sure :

    function threaded() {
        $(document).ready(function () {
            // Check if the screen width is 1200px or more
            if ($(window).width() >= 1200) {
                // Check if the dropdown already exists
                if ($('#enableThreading').length === 0) {
                    var threadView = $('<div class="threads-wrapper"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-bars left"></i><form class="form"><div class="form-check form-switch sticky-tools-bar"> \
                        <input class="form-check-input" id="enableThreading" type="checkbox" data-field="enableThreading"> \
                        <label class=" d-none d-md-inline fw-semibold" for="enableThreading"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-bars-staggered right"></i></label> \
                    </div></form></div>');
                    $('.topic .sticky-tools ul [component="topic/browsing-users"]:last-of-type').append(threadView);
                    // Check if there's a stored state for the checkbox and update it
                    var storedState = localStorage.getItem('enableThreadingState');
                    if (storedState === 'true') {
                        $('#enableThreading').prop('checked', true);
                    }
                }
                // Toggle the class 'threaded' on or off when the checkbox changes state
                $('#enableThreading').on('change', function () {
                    var isChecked = $(this).is(':checked');
                    if (isChecked) {

  • @DownPW Thanks. You should remove the threadedChat function and these lines

    $(window).on('action:chat.loaded', function(data) {
            threadedChat();
    });
    $(window).on('action:chat.received', function(data) {
            threadedChat();
    });
    

    That code is not functional yet and is very experimental 🙂

    I’ll have a look at your DEV environment to make the code recommendations.

  • @DownPW I changed your CSS as it was lacking the actual .threaded class which is the target we add and remove

    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline [component="topic/event"].timeline-event, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline [component="topic/necro-post"].timeline-event.threaded {
        background: transparent !important;
        margin-bottom: 10px !important;
    }
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .threaded:last-child .timeline-event:last-child,
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .threaded:last-child>[component="post/placeholder"]:last-child,
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .threaded:last-child>[component=post]:last-child {
        margin-left: 0.5rem !important;
    }
    

    Seems to work, but can you confirm?

  • nope

    Sorry I was on my way back from work @phenomlab

    So in fact I’m already going to try adding .threaded to the CSS code.

    When I activate Thread mode, everything is OK however when I deactivate Thread mode, certain classes remain and are not deleted

    For example here, without Thread mode, the background is not returned to vanilla and the same thing for the border-radius :

    0a214db5-6435-49dc-b04d-52842ba0b28d-image.png

  • @DownPW For clarity, I didn’t change all of the classes - only the two you posted last

    Threading off

    fe3562db-edee-4f63-a8aa-1eb59c1279ea-image.png

    Threading on

    a92e0031-cf0c-416e-a1f7-53a6cb3a6631-image.png

  • yep but these 2 class have problem, on your screens, with Threading Off, background color use –bs-body-navbar and not –bs-body-bg.
    And if you seen topi event is not transparent like vanilla

  • @DownPW That should make no difference?

    Just remove it from the class

    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .timeline-event, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component="post/placeholder"], .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component=post] {
        border-left: none;
        transition: transform 0.3s ease !important;
        background: var(--bs-body-bg);
        /* background: var(--bs-body-navbar); */
        border-radius: var(--bs-border-radius);
    }

  • that makes all the difference 🙂

    Vanilla is like this:

  • @DownPW said in Threading support for NodeBB:

    And if you seen topi event is not transparent like vanilla

    It is for me

    6d89cea9-6311-48d1-8eea-07b7b827eafd-image.png

  • nope for me

    image.png

  • no return to vanilla background

    blink2.gif

    vanilla: bs-body-bg
    thread ON: bs-body-navbar

  • @DownPW Because your CSS has not been altered dude.

    ebe21e6c-5409-498f-a5dd-605403c52622-image.png

    Try now. It works for me?

  • I have not the same result :

    image.png

    I have bs-body-bg with thread ON

  • @DownPW Isn’t that correct, or do you want --bs-body-navbar ?

  • @DownPW said in Threading support for NodeBB:

    vanilla: bs-body-bg
    thread ON: bs-body-navbar

  • @DownPW Right. Hold on.

  • or maybe for each modification this must be specified twice ?

    THREAD OFF

    /* Start of threaded CSS rules */
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .timeline-event,
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component="post/placeholder"],
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component="post"] {
      border-left: none;
      transition: transform 0.3s ease !important;
      background: var(--bs-body-bg);
      /* background: var(--bs-body-navbar); */
      border-radius: var(--bs-border-radius);
    }
    

    THREAD ON

    /* Start of threaded CSS rules */
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .timeline-event,
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component="post/placeholder"],
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component="post"].threaded {
      border-left: none;
      transition: transform 0.3s ease !important;
      /* background: var(--bs-body-bg); */
      background: var(--bs-body-navbar);
      border-radius: var(--bs-border-radius);
    }
    

    Same things for other modif like border radius

    @Panda Just circling back here with something of an update (which I think you’ll like). I’ve completely restructured the ranking system. There are now less ranks, with a higher point threshold to reach them.

    More importantly, if you reload the site, you’ll notice that the ranks are now icons.

    I also removed the “Author” badge, and made this a single icon, which (to me) looks much better.

    @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); }); }); });

    @phenomlab

    I find the problem Mark 😉

    The error message indicated this path :

    http://localhost:4567/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/styles.css?v=6983dobg16u

    I change the path url on config.json

    47bacc80-f141-41e4-a261-3f8d650cc6f6-image.png

    And all it’s good 🙂

    Weird, I didn’t have to change that path before 1.19.3

    But this does not prevent the problem from a clean install with Emoji Plugin

    EDIT: After test, that resolv the problem installation for 1.18.x but not for 1.19.x (I have other error message when I run ./nodebb Setup

    For resume: NodeJS 16_x with 1.18.x is ok
