    @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;
    }

  • Hello @phenomlab

    I come back here with a little problem.

    I created a donation button in the custom footbar that works well.

    It looks like this with the following code:

    9285dbef-db03-4449-bbdb-ee2caf37d4ef-image.png

    <div id="floatright">
    
    <div class="d-flex justify-content-center mt-2 mb-2">
        <a href="https://ko-fi.com/K3K519RHI6" 
           class="btn btn-primary d-flex align-items-center btn-donation" 
           target="_blank">
            <img src="https://storage.ko-fi.com/cdn/logomarkLogo.png" 
                 alt="Icône café" class="me-2">
            Faire un don
        </a>
    </div>
    
    <a class="feedback-menu-far-right" target="_blank" href="/politique">Politique&nbsp;</a> 
    
    ...
    

    However, as soon as I go to a profile page, the users page, the group page, it is broken like this :

    1f63eaac-ad88-44c7-8d80-24a9096701da-image.png

    possible to see it on production server

    Any idea to resolve this ?

    @DownPW Looking at the code, it seems to come down to this

    <img src="https://storage.ko-fi.com/cdn/logomarkLogo.png" alt="Icône café" class="me-2 img-fluid">
    

    cbcd08c7-6090-4d4c-8680-320b833958e5-image.png

    If you remove the img-fluid class, it works as intended

    936bf2bf-1518-4236-aab6-1cbab0c6ca85-image.png

    The question is where the img-fluid class is being added.

    I don’t know
    Not in the code…

    I don’t explain why this class is added in these pages

  • I use this CSS code for control the button in the custom bar :

    .btn-donation {
        font-size: 12px; /* Taille du texte */
        padding: 2px 5px 2px 5px; /* Marges internes pour agrandir le bouton */
        border-radius: 8px; /* Coins arrondis */
        margin-top: -8.8px !important;
        color: #ffffff !important;
    }
        
    .btn-donation img {
        width: 18px; /* Taille de l’icône */
        height: 16px;
    }

    Find him :

    But I use this code for control image on topics and Shoutbox 😞


    EDIT: I disabled this code and it seems to be OK

    Thanks @phenomlab

  • Hello @phenomlab

    Love your new Glass effect on tittle site.

    Possible to adapt it to my site/share the code ?

    @DownPW Possible, yes, although this particular effect uses CSS only for both the text itself, and the shine rollover. It’s actually quite complex in setup and takes several adjustments to get it to look right.

    It’s also important to understand if you are using this on a logo, or just text?

    just text; logo on the left is separate

    @DownPW And the hue animation? Or just the glass effect?

  • I’d like to try it without HUE to start.

    But I’m always keen to try lots of things 🙂

    You could always explain both to me, so I can apply them separately.

    @DownPW Ok. No problems. Let me get back to you. In real life calling presently.

  • OK 🙂

    Wait News

  • Yeah I also like the looks and effect of the Sudonix logo at the top. Looks very awesome!

    @Panda said in Interesting Widget code, but can’t fetch API: How did you drop that widget into the post there? I hadnt seen this BSgenerator anywhere on sudonix site, do you use it somewhere already? Yes, here https://sudonix.org/topic/414/corporate-bullshit-generator?_=1687774393044 It’s not a “post” or “topic” in the common sense. It is actually a page in it’s own right and leverages nodebb-plugin-custom-pages. This in turn creates a new “route” which behaves like a page, meaning it is then exposed for widgets. @Panda said in Interesting Widget code, but can’t fetch API: Also can you explain more what you mean by calling the code externally. In my API call example, how would I go about doing that? By this, I mean create all the required code in an external JS file that is reachable by the NodeBB instance - so, in “public” for example - or in my case /public/js. The widget then “calls” that file and because it runs outside of the scope of NodeBB, you just need to return the values to the widget. Hope this makes sense?

    @cagatay this relates to a change the css classes used for the brand header meaning it will now float to the left instead of right. If you’d like to retain the original behavior, you can add this css class [data-widget-area="brand-header"] { justify-content: end; display: flex; } Further information here https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17090/manual-build-a-custom-header-in-harmony/19?_=1684069325296

    @eveh Welcome board The code you are referring to is custom written as no such functionality exists under NodeBB. However, adding the functionality is relatively trivial. Below are the required steps Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-header Add the below code to your header, and save once completed <ol id="mainbanner" class="breadcrumb"><li id="addtext">Your Title Goes Here</li></ol> Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-js and add the below code, then save $(document).ready(function() { $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) { // Initialise mainbanner ID, but hide it from view $('#mainbanner').hide(); var pathname = window.location.pathname; if (pathname === "/") { $("#addtext").text("Your Title"); $('#mainbanner').show(); } else {} // If we want to add a title to a sub page, uncomment the below and adjust accordingly //if (pathname === "/yourpath") { //$("#addtext").text("Your Title"); //$('#mainbanner').show(); //} }); }); Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-css and add the below CSS block .breadcrumb { right: 0; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; background: #0086c4; color: #ffffff; width: 100vw; position: relative; margin-left: -50vw; left: 50%; top: 50px; position: fixed; z-index: 1020; } Note, that you will need to adjust your CSS code to suit your own site / requirements.
