  • Hi Mark,

    I’m trying to customise the nodebb-plugin-recent-cards widget that I have on my forum, I would like it to show … at the end of box so it doesn’t look so untidy, is this something that’s possible?

    @JAC I’ve added this CSS block on your site

    .recent-cards-plugin .topic-info {
        height: 8em;
        display: -webkit-box;
        max-width: 200px;
        -webkit-line-clamp: 4;
        -webkit-box-orient: vertical;
        overflow: hidden;
    }
    

    This yields the below

    @phenomlab thank you very much for the assistance Mark, massively appreciated as always.

    The great thing about this is it’s all documented for other NodeBB users that come looking for solutions 😃.

    Looks far better 🤝👍🏻.

    @crazycells hmm. That’s odd. I haven’t made any changes from recollection but I could be wrong. I’ll need to check. EDIT - very strange. I honestly don’t recall adding the below CSS block to alter the bottom bar, but you’re right… .bottombar-nav { padding: 0px !important; } I’ve removed this so it reflects stock Harmony.

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

    @riekmedia I’ve applied some new CSS to your site. Can you reload the page and try again ? For the record, this is what I added #footer { background: #2d343e; border-top: 4px solid #2d343e; font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 70px; padding: 80px 0 0; position: relative; clear: both; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 0; z-index: 1000; margin-left: -15px; margin-right: -338px; } The /categories page seems a bit messed up, so looking at that currently EDIT - issued some override CSS in the CATEGORIES widget <!--- CSS fix for overspill on /categories page - DO NOT DELETE --> <style> #footer { margin-right: -45px; } </style> That should resolve the /categories issue.

    @jac said in Forum customisation: @phenomlab said in Forum customisation: @jac 100%. Just setting up some free time. I’m on annual leave from work offer the coming 2 weeks so hopefully will have a bit more time then. Not a problem Mark, I don’t wish for you to use all your spare time doing that, just do it when you can, no issues I know you’re busy doing other things but when you get a chance mate I’m happy for this to go ahead along with the RSS script.
