@DownPW thanks. Can you try a theory for me and change that code so it looks like the below

<span id="thisuserbrand" class="getUsername">,  <a href="/me"><span class="username">DownPW</span></a></span>

I expect this to return nothing, which will prove my theory around the Ajax calls.

DownPW

Nope @phenomlab

Same things, same problem

phenomlab

@DownPW then the problem isn’t the existing function. That ID I provided doesn’t exist anywhere and isn’t tied to any elements so should never trigger.

DownPW

oups don’t know why I have used this code, replace by :

<div class="getUsername">, <a href="/me"><span class="username"></span></a></div>

But same problem

phenomlab

@DownPW did you remove the original line from the footer before placing it in the brand header?

DownPW

remove no, but commented like this

<!-- <span id="thisuser" class="getUsername">,  <a href="/me"><span class="username">DownPW</span></a></span> -->

EDIT: test with remove = same

phenomlab

@DownPW can you send me the footer function your are using. I’m 100% certain this is being caused by the ajax call.

phenomlab

@DownPW can you change the top line of this function from

$(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function (data) {

To

$(document).ready() {

Save and let me know if this changes anything. The theory here is that the Ajax call in the top line causes the prepend to be executed multiple times

DownPW

the code doesn’t work with this

phenomlab

@DownPW it should work once at least on site reload, no? Or does it crash?

DownPW

no, doesn’t work and break theme and swatch applet

phenomlab

@DownPW that shouldn’t cause the error you are seeing there. It looks like that is from the previous function.

DownPW

the previous function is just fancybox and nothing more :

// Fancybox Media Reader
if (top.location.pathname !== '/login') {
    $(window).on('action:posts.loaded', function(data) {
        console.log("Polling DOM for lazyLoaded images to apply Fancybox");
        $(document).ready(function() {
            $('a').not('.forum-logo').not(".avatar").not(".emoji").not(".bmac-noanimate").each(function() {
                $('a[href*=".jpg"], a[href*=".jpeg"], a[href*=".png"], a[href*=".gif"], a[href*=".webp"]').addClass("noanimate");
            });
        });
    });
}

if (top.location.pathname !== '/login') {
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            this.$('a').not('.forum-logo').not(".avatar").not(".emoji").not(".bmac-noanimate").each(function() {
                $('a[href*=".jpg"], a[href*=".jpeg"], a[href*=".png"], a[href*=".gif"], a[href*=".webp"]').addClass("noanimate");
                data.preventDefault()
                // Strip out the images contained inside blockquotes as this looks nasty :)
                $('blockquote img').remove();
            });
            Fancybox.bind(
                'a[href*=".jpg"], a[href*=".jpeg"], a[href*=".png"], a[href*=".gif"], a[href*=".webp"]', {
                    groupAll: true,
                }
            );
        });
    });
}

// Chat fancybox - fires when chat module loaded and AJAX calls new chat
$(document).ready(function() {
    $(window).on('action:chat.loaded', function(data) {
            this.$('img').not('.forum-logo').not(".avatar").not(".emoji").not(".bmac-noanimate").each(function() {
                var newHref = $(this).attr("src");
                $(this).wrap("<a class='fancybox' href='" + newHref + "'/>");
                $('a[href*=".jpg"], a[href*=".jpeg"], a[href*=".png"], a[href*=".gif"], a[href*=".webp"]').addClass("noanimate");
                data.preventDefault();
                // Strip out the images contained inside blockquotes as this looks nasty :)
                $('blockquote img').remove();
            });
            Fancybox.bind(
                'a[href*=".jpg"], a[href*=".jpeg"], a[href*=".png"], a[href*=".gif"], a[href*=".webp"]', {
                    groupAll: true,
                }
            );
    });
});

the error above just appear wit hthe change of $(document).ready() {, no error with $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function (data) {

@DownPW very odd. I’ll have a look at this directly on your dev site tomorrow morning to see why this is.

EDIT - this is now fixed. I looked at the code, and I was right that it should work, and only execute once - not sure what happened there.

EDIT2 - I absolutely love this design, and am stealing it Such a clever way of depicting colour in the theme, and I’m going to make it dynamic also so that the colours change if the theme css does.

️ hmmm not, almost fixed @phenomlab !
It’s ok for duplicate ajax problem but not fixed for the the footer image : It’s appear one time and if you go to another section (like recent or unread for example), the image on footer don’t appear
Same in incognito mode.

Thank you !
–> I already told you, my code is your code

Thinking about it, I found this idea elsewhere but I don’t really know where
I just added a rotation effect on it and adapted it to the dropdown of the brand menu widget.

You talk about making it dynamic but I don’t really see what you mean since the theme colors represented do not change.
Unless you want to automate it. Genre detects the 2 main color types of the theme according to 2 values/declarations present in the css file.

I kind of expected that because the footer image relies on an ajax reload to determine the time, then work out which image to display based on that. The real problem here is that the prepend is being called on each request, and because it’s an prepend, you are seeing multiple copies.

One way to fix this is to delete the element and recreate it, but that is horribly inefficient

I’ve modified the function to include a check to see if the containing div is empty or not - if it is, we add the icon and message - if it’s already there, we skip it

    // Test to see if the DIV containing the icon and message is empty. If it is, insert icon and message
    if ($('#busername').length === 0) {
        $('.getUsername').prepend("<div id='busername'><i id='thisicon' class='" + theicon + "'></i></div>" + themessage);
    } else {
        // nothing to do here :)
    }

(Note that this has been added to the existing function)

And some minor css which allows us to float the new div so that it displays inline

// Inline display fix for Welcome DIV
div#busername {
    display: inline;
}

Simple enough -you just reference the variables, but admittedly, you’d need to refactor some code to make this work transiently, so it’s probably not a very good idea. I suppose it really depends on how often you decide to revamp your themes - in which case, it would make sense.

I just don’t like static variables

It doesn’t bother me too much personally because I’m not ready to modify the themes in depth, especially the main colors, but what you say makes sense.
It’s always better to automate when you can.

I’ll see what you can do ha ha

In any case, I’m happy to bring my stone to the building

Hello @phenomlab

I have a dropdown menu with manu different left icons and I want to align vertically the <a> text
I don’t know why I can’t do it. Fatigue maybe?

Here the code of my menu :

<li><a id="menubrand" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i id="menubrand" class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-scroll text-primary"></i>&nbsp; Règlements</a></li> 
<li><a id="menubrand" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i id="menubrand" class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-newspaper"></i>&nbsp; Annonces</a></li> 
<li><a id="menubrand" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i id="menubrand" class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-people text-primary"></i> &nbsp; Team</a></li> 
<li><a id="menubrand" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx""><i id="menubrand" class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-database text-primary"></i> &nbsp; Tutoriels</a></li> 
<li><a id="menubrand" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i id="menubrand" class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-bug text-primary"></i> &nbsp; Bug Report</a></li> 
<li><a id="menubrand" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i id="menubrand" class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-brands fa-wikipedia-w text-primary"></i> &nbsp; Wiki</a></li>

Resut :

Many thanks

phenomlab

@DownPW You’ll need to restructure the HTML first - don’t use nbsp; - you should always use margin or padding Also, you are using the same ID multiple times which will cause you problems with markup as it is not unique.

Try this

<li><a class="menubrand dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-scroll text-primary menubrand"></i>Règlements</a></li> 
<li><a class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-newspaper menubrand"></i>Annonces</a></li> 
<li><a class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-people text-primary menubrand"></i>Team</a></li> 
<li><a class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx""><i class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-database text-primary menubrand"></i>Tutoriels</a></li> 
<li><a class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-bug text-primary menubrand"></i>Bug Report</a></li> 
<li><a class="dropdown-item rounded-1" href="https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><i class="fa-solid fa-lg fa-brands fa-wikipedia-w text-primary menubrand"></i>Wiki</a></li>

Then use this CSS

i.menubrand {
    max-width: 25px;
    width: 25px;
    margin-right: 10px;
    text-align: center;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

Should give you this
