    very clever indeed! does it show on mobile?

    Yes, natively, but I use CSS to hide it.

    The idea is fantastic Mark, is there a point where you think yes my ideas are used by others but having the same features across a few forums, does that bother you or would you say this is why you created Sudonix?

    Absolutely not. I know that my ideas have been accepted and used by @JAC @DownPW @kurulumuNet and I’m happy that others find them useful. There’s no copyright here - anything you want to take and use is, like the platform itself, free.

    @downpw Sure. Very simple - just place this in your mobile CSS block

    .getUsername {
  display: none;
}

    What is your CSS for this @phenomlab ?
    I have small bug on Unread categorie for example with this code I wrote:

    .getUsername {
    float: right;
    font-family: 'Poppins';
    font-size: 1.6rem;
    line-height: 1.8;
    color: #898989;
    font-weight: 400;
}

    @downpw I use the below - essentially, using padding to overcome this

    .getUsername {
    padding-top: 20px;
    text-align: right;
}

    @phenomlab
    To hide only on mobile / tablet you can use max-width,
    For example:

    @media (max-width: 970px) {
     .getUsername {
   display: none;
}
}

    @jac @DownPW here’s the function I put together than will need to be added into your Custom JS

    $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function (data) {
    function updateUsername() {
        $('.getUsername .username').text(app.user.username);
    }
    if (document.readyState === 'loading') {
        document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', updateUsername);
    } else {
        updateUsername();
    }
    var thehours = new Date().getHours();
	var themessage;
	var morning = ('Good morning');
	var afternoon = ('Good afternoon');
	var evening = ('Good evening');

	if (thehours >= 0 && thehours < 12) {
		themessage = morning; 

	} else if (thehours >= 12 && thehours < 17) {
		themessage = afternoon;

	} else if (thehours >= 17 && thehours < 24) {
		themessage = evening;
	}

	$('.getUsername').prepend(themessage);
});

    Then use a custom HTML widget with the below

    <!-- IF loggedIn -->
<div class="getUsername">, <a href="/me"><span class="username"></span></a></div>
<!-- ENDIF loggedIn -->

    Hello,

    I have a question regarding a problem my user is experiencing with this Welcome message.
    This user is not in France.

    It’s 7:40 a.m. for him, so 1:40 a.m. in France, and the banner wishes me a “good afternoon.” I don’t know what time zone it thinks I’m in, but it’s wrong…

    And nodebb displays 11:40 p.m. on the right once posted, so GMT.
    Which isn’t the afternoon either.

    How does this script get the time? It looks like it’s getting the time from the client, meaning the computer or device of the person visiting your site.
    But it seems that in this specific case, the correct time isn’t being retrieved.

    How can I fix this?

    @DownPW the ‘js’ code for the banner takes the time from the client, so what it displays really depends on the regional settings for the operating system.

    I’ve not seen this issue myself but would like to see some examples of screenshots if possible.

    @Teemberland great spot ! You should create a PR for that so they can include it in the official repository. Just be aware that any subsequent releases will overwrite your fix without the PR.

    @eveh It’s not a GIF, no. It’s actually a webp file so made much smaller, and uses keyframes to control the rotation on hover. You can easily make your own though The CSS for that is as below @keyframes rotate180 { from { transform: rotate(0deg); } to { transform: rotate(180deg); } } @keyframes rotate0 { from { transform: rotate(180deg); } to { transform: rotate(0deg); } } Your milage may vary on the CSS below, as it’s custom for Sudonix, but this is the class that is used to control the rotate .header .forum-logo, img.forum-logo.head { max-height: 50px; width: auto; height: 30px; margin-top: 9px; max-width: 150px; min-width: 32px; display: inline-block; animation-name: rotate180, rotate0; animation-duration: 1000ms; animation-delay: 0s, 1000ms; animation-iteration-count: 1; animation-timing-function: linear; transition: transform 1000ms ease-in-out; }
