Unsolved Customisation

  • pwsincdundefined

    Hi again , on our sire we require the use of custom user fields so we can refer to them with our own bespoke plugin we are going to develop , however this plugin https://github.com/NicolasSiver/nodebb-plugin-ns-custom-fields fails to function on recent builds of nodeBB i wonder if anyone here has had any success in getting custom fields to work ? some of the code in the default nodebb suggests it is already possible .

    Also this plugin would be more suitable as it suggests registration fields… but likewise it fails https://www.npmjs.com/package/nodebb-plugin-itu-custom-registration-fields

    @pwsincd This is always a problem with Open Source development in the sense that packages are often suddenly abandoned and no response ever provided to any requests. Does this plugin make NodeBB crash, or does it actually install ?

    I think the only way forward here is to fork and update it for the latest version, which may take some time.

    @pwsincd On checking this plugin, the install appears to actually fail - see the below from the log

    @pwsincd hi. Just following up on this thread (I know it’s old) but was curious to understand if it’s still an issue or not ?

    @phenomlab said: @DownPW Possible, yes, but not using the existing code. It would need to be changed to test for multiple entries based on two distinct widget areas. This should work (it’s already applied on your DEV server) function chatBanner() { var roomName = $("h5[component='chat/header/title']").text().trim(); var roomNameWidget = $('[id*="chat-modal"] .btn-ghost.btn-sm.dropdown-toggle').text().trim(); var bannerContent; if (roomName === "General" || roomNameWidget === "General") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Message 1. </div>'; } else if (roomName === "Support" || roomNameWidget === "Support") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Message 2.</div>'; } else if (roomName === "Info" || roomNameWidget === "Info") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Message 3</div>'; } else if (roomName === "xxxxxx" || roomNameWidget === "xxxxxx") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Message 4</div>'; } else if (roomName === "xxxxxx" || roomNameWidget === "xxxxxx") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Message 5</div>'; } else if (roomName === "xxxxxx" || roomNameWidget === "xxxxxx") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Message 6</div>'; } else { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Ce canal est une discussion privée. </div>'; } var chatMessagesContainer = $('[component="chat/system-message"]:last-of-type'); //var existingMessages = $('[component="chat/message"]'); var existingMessages = $('[component="chat/composer"]'); if (existingMessages.length === 0) { // If there are no messages, append the banner to the messages container chatMessagesContainer.first().after(bannerContent); } else { // If there are messages, add the banner after the last message //existingMessages.last().after(bannerContent); existingMessages.before(bannerContent); } } Here, we are using || which is essentially an OR operator. Because we cannot know the chat room ID in advance, it is necessary to use a wildcard to track it [id*="chat-modal"] .btn-ghost.btn-sm.dropdown-toggle I see bugs with this code and chat box widget I use on my categories page What was happening NodeBB allows multiple chat windows to be open simultaneously , the widget and the full/modal-page DM view. Both exist in the DOM at the same time. The original code used global jQuery selectors like $(‘[component=“chat/composer”]’) which scanned the entire page and found elements from both chat windows at once. When you opened “XY” caht while “XXY” was still open in the widget, the selectors would pick up the wrong room name or inject the banner into the wrong window. The key discovery was that the action:chat.loaded event passes the modal DOM element directly as data. By wrapping it in $(data) and using $modal.find(…) for every selector, all queries are scoped exclusively to the correct modal, making it impossible for two open chat windows to interfere with each other. FIX code (to adapt to your rooms) : function chatBanner(modalElement) { var $modal = $(modalElement); $modal.find('#chatbanner').remove(); var roomName = $modal.find('[component="chat/room/name"]').text().trim(); if (!roomName) { var placeholder = $modal.find('[component="chat/input"]').attr('placeholder') || ''; roomName = placeholder.replace(/^Message #?/, '').trim(); } var bannerContent; if (roomName === "General") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Chat message banner</div>'; } else if (roomName === "xxxxxxxxxx") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Chat message banner</div>'; } else if (roomName === "xxxxxxxxxx") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Chat message banner</div>'; } else if (roomName === "xxxxxxxxxx") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Chat message banner</div>'; } else if (roomName === "xxxxxxxxxx") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Chat message banner</div>'; } else if (roomName === "Les geeks de l'espace") { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Chat message banner</div>'; } else { bannerContent = '<div id="chatbanner"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-circle-info link-primary" aria-hidden="true"></i> Chat message banner</div>'; } $modal.find('[component="chat/composer"]').first().before(bannerContent); } $(window).on('action:chat.loaded', function(ev, data) { chatBanner(data); });

    @pobojmoks that’s easily done by modifying the code provided here so that it targets background rather than border In essence, the below should work $(document).ready(function() { $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) { $('.recent-card-container').each(function(i) { var dataId = $(this).attr("data-cid"); var color = $('[role="presentation"]', this).css("background-color"); console.log("data-cid " + dataId + " is " + color); $('[data-cid="' + dataId + '"] .recent-card').attr("style", "background-color: " + color); }); }); });
