    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?

    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

    @crazycells Agreed. It takes a more sensible approach. Nobody ever upvotes the first post - it’s usually much further down as the conversation progresses.

    @eeeee said in restarting nodebb on boot:

    can I just run nodebb under nodemon for auto restarts?

    It’s a better method. Nodemon just looks for file system changes and would effectively die if the server was rebooted meaning you’d have to start it again anyway. Systemd is the defacto standard which is how the operating system interacts in terms of services, scheduled tasks etc.

    @cagatay You should ask in the NodeBB forums. Perhaps reference this post

    @DownPW Looking at the underlying code, class start is being added on hover by jQuery in this function

    document.querySelectorAll(".button-gradient, .button-transparent").forEach((button) => { const style = getComputedStyle(button); const lines = document.createElement("div"); lines.classList.add("lines"); const groupTop = document.createElement("div"); const groupBottom = document.createElement("div"); const svg = createSVG( button.offsetWidth, button.offsetHeight, parseInt(style.borderRadius, 10) ); groupTop.appendChild(svg); groupTop.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupTop.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupTop.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupBottom.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupBottom.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupBottom.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); groupBottom.appendChild(svg.cloneNode(true)); lines.appendChild(groupTop); lines.appendChild(groupBottom); button.appendChild(lines); button.addEventListener("pointerenter", () => { button.classList.add("start"); }); svg.addEventListener("animationend", () => { button.classList.remove("start"); }); }); })

    The CSS for start is below

    .button-gradient.start .lines svg, .button-transparent.start .lines svg { animation: stroke 0.3s linear; }

    And this is the corresponding keyframe

    @keyframes stroke { 30%, 55% { opacity: 1; } 100% { stroke-dashoffset: 5; opacity: 0; } }

    It’s using both CSS and SVG, so might not be a simple affair to replicate without the SVG files.

    @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.
