[NODEBB] Help for my custom CSS

Solved Customisation
  • @DownPW sorry, I’m not entirely sure what you mean?

  • Sorry the player is small compared to here. I would like to enlarge them ^^ 😉

    – Mine :

    – Here on sudonix :

  • @DownPW Try this

    .embed-container iframe {
        width: 600px;
        height: 300px;
    }
    

    Obviously, adjust width and height as required

  • Hmm I have this problem with hover background color on close button on modal chat on my dev instance.
    The background color is black :

    f1c61a50-3b64-4470-89fc-182c8027a530-image.png

    And it seems my code doesn’t work :

    8d427049-7987-4a2c-a0d9-4c26b475cafb-image.png

    I confess that I do not fully understand why I have black and that my code is not interpreted correctly.

    Thanks in advance for your help my friends 😉

  • @DownPW It’s caused by this css

    .btn-close {
        filter: var(--bs-node-btn-close-color) !important;
    }
    

    If you remove that filter, the issue will be resolved.

  • Thanks. It’s an error.
    Why I have used filter lol

  • @DownPW I figured 😁

  • @phenomlab

    So actually after research I was using as this was used in old core code.

    By removing the “Filter” directive it works for the black background on the hover of the close button: cool !!

    But for the color of the cross icon itself (In fact it is not an icon but an image) it is black for light themes, no problem but it remains black for dark themes so it becomes invisible !!!

    So here is my solution :

    .btn-close {
      background: var(--bs-node-btn-close-bg) !important;
    }
    
    • for light theme:
    --bs-node-btn-close-bg: transparent url("data:image/svg+xml,%3csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 16 16' fill='%23000'%3e%3cpath d='M.293.293a1 1 0 0 1 1.414 0L8 6.586 14.293.293a1 1 0 1 1 1.414 1.414L9.414 8l6.293 6.293a1 1 0 0 1-1.414 1.414L8 9.414l-6.293 6.293a1 1 0 0 1-1.414-1.414L6.586 8 .293 1.707a1 1 0 0 1 0-1.414z'/%3e%3c/svg%3e") center/1em auto no-repeat;
    
    • for dark themes :
    --bs-node-btn-close-bg: transparent url("data:image/svg+xml,%3csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 16 16' fill='%23fff'%3e%3cpath d='M.293.293a1 1 0 0 1 1.414 0L8 6.586 14.293.293a1 1 0 1 1 1.414 1.414L9.414 8l6.293 6.293a1 1 0 0 1-1.414 1.414L8 9.414l-6.293 6.293a1 1 0 0 1-1.414-1.414L6.586 8 .293 1.707a1 1 0 0 1 0-1.414z'/%3e%3c/svg%3e") center/1em auto no-repeat;
    

    I see you have the same problem here on sudonix, test that 😉

  • @DownPW thanks. I’ll check this.

  • no problem. Always @phenomlab

    I want to test your author badge (fa) :

    image.png

    Can you provide CSS for this please ?

    Thank you

    edit:

    tetsing this but i don’t think i’m on the good road

    .topic-owner-post [itemprop=author]:before{
        font-family: "Font Awesome 6 pro";
        font-style: normal;
        content: "\e1e4";
        left: 100px !important;
        text-align: left !important;
        position: absolute;
    }
    
  • @DownPW heh, that also needs some js to make that work.

    Edit - add this js block

    function addAuthorBadge() {
      $(".topic-owner-post").each(function() {
        var $authorElement = $(this).find(".text-nowrap:first");
        
        // Check if the author badge already exists
        if (!$authorElement.find(".author").length) {
          // Prepend the author element
          $authorElement.append("<span class='author' data-toggle='tooltip' data-placement='left' title='Topic Author'><span class='author-icon'><i class='fa-regular fa-message-quote'></i></span>");
          // Add tooltip on hover
          $authorElement.find(".author").tooltip({
            content: "Topic Author",
            track: true // This enables the tooltip to track the mouse movement
          });
        }
      });
    }
    
    
    $(document).ready(function() {
      $(window).on('action:posts.loaded', function(data) {
          addAuthorBadge();
        });
    });
    
    
    $(document).ready(function() {
      $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
          addAuthorBadge();
        });
    });
    
  • OMG make sense

    Thanks dude 🙂

  • Hello,

    I just changed my smartphone (OnePlus 12R) and I see this which I cannot resolve.

    the central body is offset and is not centered on the smartphone. (production server)

    Any idea to solve this??

  • @DownPW yes, I too see this on your production site. Typically, this is because of one element that is oversized and causing the entire body to shift.

    Unfortunately, it’s a slow process in terms of finding the culprit, but I’ll have a more detailed look later.

    OK Thank you. Logo I guess


    I also noticed that the "answer "button on my DEV platform following the new update is quite large but I can’t find the right CSS target to correct it.

    Can you help me with that too?

  • @DownPW said in [NODEBB] Help for my custom CSS:

    Sort of.

    You can stop most of the overflow with the below CSS

    body {
        overflow-x: hidden;
        max-width: 100%;
    }
    

    Add the above to the existing body class you have.

    For the remainder, it’s much easier to see where elements burst outside of their boundaries by using the global CSS below, which will draw a border around every single element - effectively, making it much easier to see

    * {
    outline: 1px solid red;
    }
    

    This then yields the below

    8a917031-91c0-4852-bd92-35cb2aa3fbd7-image.png

    As you can clearly see, the additional navigation buttons you have are flowing outside of their allowed space, which causes the body to expand to accommodate the new size. This produces the undesired effect of scrolling on the entire body.

    Then, look at the class of

    [data-widget-area=brand-header] {
        justify-content: end;
        display: flex;
    }
    

    If you remove display: flex; from this class, the icons are then stacked vertically, and the problem resolves itself. However, this looks ugly. A better way of getting closer to the result you want is to resize the logo

    [component="brand/logo"] {
        max-height: 100px;
        width: auto;
        height: 75px;
        margin-top: -1px;
        height: 45px; 
    }
    

    Here, we’ve dropped the image size from 75px to 45px, which in turn pulls the expanded DIV back into line

    1a9413d9-4403-4da5-b12c-df6919f96157-image.png

    The problem we then have is the site title, but can easily fix that with the below CSS

    @media (max-width: 768px) {
        a.text-truncate.align-self-stretch.align-items-center.d-flex h1 {
            height: 55px;
        }
    }
    

    This then yields

    240a4f8b-f193-4508-973a-62e64dae573e-image.png

    Everything now aligns correctly, and more importantly, the scrolling body is no more.

    Yes, of course. You can target the component directly for that

    [component="topic/quickreply/button"] {
       height 45px;
    }
    
    
  • I will test ASAP

    Many thanks my friend

    @Sala This should look better

    .sidenav .navbar-brand { padding-top: 0.5rem; padding-bottom: 0.5rem; }

    You can increase the top and bottom padding by increasing the values above.

    The real issue here is that most people consider forums to be “dead” in the sense that nobody uses them anymore, and social media groups have taken their place. Their once dominant stance in the 90’s and early 00’s will never be experienced again, but having said that, there are a number of forums that did in fact survive the social media onslaught, and still enjoy a large user base.

    Forums tend to be niche. One that immediately sticks out is Reddit - despite looking like it was designed in the 80s, it still has an enormous user base. Another is Stack Overflow, which needs no introduction. The key to any forum is the content it offers, and the more people whom contribute in terms of posting , the more popular and widely respected it becomes as a reliable source of information.

    Forums are still intensely popular with gamers, alongside those that offer tips on hacking etc.

    @cagatay you’ll need to define this in the body tag (or another element if you want greater or more granular targets) - for example

    body { font-family: "Poppins"; font-size: 16px; }

    Essentially, you use the font-size CSS directive.

    @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.
