    @downpw This will fix the reply button on hover

    .btn-group > .btn:first-child:not(:last-child):not(.dropdown-toggle) {
        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.

  • I don’t know.

    I delete the cache all the time after modif CSS file.

  • @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.

  • hmm if you can see custom CSS, I would appreciate it

  • @downpw Let me have a look

  • @downpw Can you please insert the code I provided into the Dark Aqua CSS theme file?

  • @phenomlab

    so sorry. first code ?

  • @downpw this one
    https://sudonix.com/topic/207/nodebb-help-for-my-custom-css/7?_=1642791291710

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

    Ok done at the end of the file

  • @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 Yes, I know. I’m just rectifying the issues

  • phenomlabundefined phenomlab referenced this topic on
  • @DownPW After spending a lot of time on the theme switcher (see referenced post above), I re-wrote some of it as found that there were caching issues with CSS as it always calls the same version number. The new function below resolves that issue.

    I also removed the website prefix, as with relative paths, this is not required 🙂

    // ------------------------------------------
    // Theme Switcher
    // ------------------------------------------
    // On choisit une chaine de caractère aléatoire pour affecter un numéro de version au fichier CSS. 
    // The function below creates a random string which we use for CSS versioning to prevent cache conflicts
    function generateRandomString(length) {
        var text="";
        var possible="ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";
        for (var i=0;
        i < length;
        i++) {
            text+=possible.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length));
        }
        return text;
    }
    
    $(document).ready(function () {
        var string=generateRandomString(10);
        $("#random_string").text(string);
        // This variable gets the theme ID 
        // Cette variable obtient l'ID du thème
        var whichTheme=localStorage.getItem("theme");
        // This variable gets the active theme's actual URL
        //Cette variable obtient l'URL réelle du thème actif

  • – The modification for resolve cache problem/CSS number version is very great 🙂

    – I have just change the CSS class for change icon on JS Script here :

    var panel = $('<li id="switcher" class="dropdown text-center"> \
    <label for="theme-control-list-check" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" id="theme_dropdown" title="" role="button" data-original-title="Theme" aria-expanded="false"> \
    <a class="btn-link" title="Theme Switcher" href="#"><i id="ticon" class="fa fa-fw fa-toogle-o"></i><span class="visible-xs-inline">Theme Switcher</span></a> \
    

    – I have light and dark theme, so I prefer a universal button like toogle ON/OFF

    • Toogle Off icon on Default Theme :
      8a6ade87-98be-4b9a-b3a7-c44fccc5cf8b-image.png

    • Toogle On icon on each other theme :
      c8bece49-8863-4fc2-9e10-fcf2c19c8bf1-image.png

    – ACP/CSS :

    /*Switch toogle Off (Off:204 - On:205*/
    .fa.fa-toogle-o:before {
        content: "\f204";
        font-size: 16px;
    }
    

    – Each theme CSS :

    /*Switch toogle Off (Off:204 - On:205*/
    .fa.fa-toogle-o:before {
        content: "\f205";
        font-size: 16px;
    }
    

    I have trad comment line too !!

    I put the topic on solved status but it’s not excluded that I return here to ask questions about CSS that I will have trouble finding for future themes if it does not bother ! 😉

    @Panda said in Nodebb design:

    One negative is not being so good for SEO as more Server side rendered forums, if web crawlers dont run the JS to read the forum.

    From recollection, Google and Bing have the capability to read and process JS, although it’s not in the same manner as a physical person will consume content on a page. It will be seen as plain text, but will be indexed. However, it’s important to note that Yandex and Baidu will not render JS, although seeing as Google has a 90% share of the content available on the web in terms of indexing, this isn’t something you’ll likely lose sleep over.

    @Panda said in Nodebb design:

    The “write api” is preferred for server-to-server interactions.

    This is mostly based around overall security - you won’t typically want a client machine changing database elements or altering data. This is why you have “client-side” which could be DOM manipulation etc, and “server-side” which performs more complex operations as it can communicate directly with the database whereas the client cannot (and if it can, then you have a serious security flaw). Reading from the API is perfectly acceptable on the client-side, but not being able to write.

    A paradigm here would be something like SNMP. This protocol exists as a UDP (UDP is very efficient, as it is “fire and forget” and does not wait for a response like TCP does) based service which reads performance data from a remote source, thus enabling an application to parse that data for use in a monitoring application. In all cases, SNMP access should be “RO” (Read Only) and not RW (Read Write). It is completely feasible to assume complete control over a firewall for example by having RW access to SNMP and then exposing it to the entire internet with a weak passphrase.

    You wouldn’t do it (at least, I hope you wouldn’t) and the same ethic applies to server-side rendering and the execution of commands.
