    @downpw Correct. Only apply these fixes to your custom CSS.

  • @downpw This will fix the reply button on hover

    .btn-group > .btn:first-child:not(:last-child):not(.dropdown-toggle) {
        margin-right: 2px;
    }
    

    This will fix the search alignment, as the CSS is inherited

    a#save-preferences {
        margin-left: -3px;
        margin-right: 2px;
    }
    

    This should fix the message buttons

    .message-body, .btn-xs.btn-link {
        margin-left: -2px !important;
        margin-right: 1px !important;
    }
    

    And this will fix the composer submit button

    .composer-submit {
        margin-left: -3px !important;
    }

        margin-right: 2px;
    }
    

    No need, margin-right: 0px; is good for me

    This will fix the search alignment, as the CSS is inherited

    a#save-preferences {
        margin-left: -3px;
        margin-right: 2px;
    }
    

    No working, just add border-radius to 0

    a#save-preferences {
    
    border-radius: 0px;
    }
    

    This should fix the message buttons

    .message-body, .btn-xs.btn-link {
        margin-left: -2px !important;
        margin-right: 1px !important;
    }
    

    Not working, i was try button .btn .btn-xs .btn-link too. Border is always here. maybe more specific about this button but I don’t see the class.

    alt text

    And this will fix the composer submit button

    .composer-submit {
        margin-left: -3px !important;
    }
    

    No need it seems to me

    @downpw Very odd. I actually used this CSS on your site and it works perfectly.

    @downpw I just tried this again from an incognito session, and the CSS I suggested also works perfectly. Very strange indeed… 😕

    Can you see my CSS/ACP ?

    maybe I did things wrong?

    I try on private navigation too.

    @downpw Yes, I see the ACP - none of the CSS I provided should be in there - it should only reside in the custom themes.

    I’ll have a look at this tomorrow but ideally need the code applied beforehand.

    @downpw Are these lines still there ? I don’t see them at the bottom of the file ?

    @downpw Thanks for the confirmation. This is indeed quite odd, as the classes, despite being at the bottom of the file, do not appear in the DOM. If I apply them manually

    eb14cd23-d5d0-4b6a-bbc8-31fd0e92cabf-image.png

    Everything works as I expected

    c036f021-3d2f-4939-bd41-8c60a9ca1d11-image.png

    Looking at your CSS, I can see why

    caccdf32-f858-4958-87d2-944deddbc616-image.png

    Note that you are missing a closing curly brace on what should be line 2716 🙂 so this explains why the remaining CSS is not being loaded !

    This block also has a stray asterisk

    .message-body, .btn-xs.btn-link {
        margin-left: -2px !important;
        margin-right: 1px !important;
    }*
    

    Should be

    .message-body, .btn-xs.btn-link {
        margin-left: -2px !important;
        margin-right: 1px !important;
    }

    Oh my god.
    I’m a noob.

    as a reminder, the problem on the chat is not with mouse hover (I see you have a hand on the button) 😉

    @DownPW it’s possible, yes, but you may inadvertently end up targeting other elements using the same class which of course isn’t desired. Can you provide a link in DM for me to review?

    @crazycells pleasure. Using percentages makes much more sense in this case. It’s the same argument with px vs pt vs em with fonts, margins, padding, etc., in the sense that em is generally preferred over px and pt https://stackoverflow.com/questions/609517/why-em-instead-of-px

    @eveh this might be a question for the NodeBB Devs themselves. In all honesty, I’m not entirely sure without having to research this myself.

    @DownPW said in Bottom footer navbar button extend: Oh my god, it’s beautiful mark I liked this design so much, I’ve implemented it here. I intend to do a lot more with the footer in due course, so hiding it makes a lot of sense. Thanks @DownPW for the idea and initial concept

    @phenomlab That will be nice once they have completed that. It will be interesting to see how long that takes. So for now I will use custom css to make it look the way I want. Frameworks just make things a little faster. Thanks @phenomlab

    @DownPW as discussed in PM Seems to have been solved with the new JS code that you added allowing the version CSS file change!! Cache problem therefore with the JS of the Switcher theme Based on this, I will close this thread and reference https://sudonix.com/topic/207/nodebb-help-for-my-custom-css/27
