Blinking text Effect

Customisation
  • Hello 🙂

    small blinking text effect that I put on the name of my forum:

    here the code :

    :root {
         --site-title-blink: #CCCCCC;
    }
    
    /*Blink text effect */
    @keyframes text-blink {
        0%,
        20%,
        22%,
        25%,
        28%,
        55%,
        80%,
        100% {
            text-shadow: 0 0 2px #000,
                0 0 10px var(--site-title-blink),
                0 0 5px var(--site-title-blink),
                0 0 25px var(--site-title-blink);
            opacity: 1;
            color: var(--site-title-blink);
        }
    
        21%,
        24%,
        56% {
            opacity: 0.2;
            text-shadow: none;
        }
    }
    
    .navbar-default .navbar-brand {
        animation: 0.5s text-blink 1.5s infinite alternate;
        animation-iteration-count: 5;
        animation-duration: 1000ms;
    }

  • @DownPW looks great ! Has that “broken neon light” look that you see in films. When I saw the title of this post, I instantly thought of the flashing text everyone had on their website in the 90’s and early 00’s but I like this effect a lot.

    It’s exactly that, kind of old neon signs of bar or pubs a bit cyberpunk too 😉

    @Panda It’s the best it’s ever been to be honest. I’ve used a myriad of systems in the past - most notably, WordPress, and then Flarum (which for SEO, was absolutely dire - they never even had SEO out of the box, and relied on a third party extension to do it), and NodeBB easily fares the best - see below example

    https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Asudonix.org&oq=site%3Asudonix.org&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i60j69i58j69i60l2.9039j0j3&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#ip=1

    However, this was not without significant effort on my part once I’d migrated from COM to ORG - see below posts

    https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17286/google-crawl-error-after-site-migration/17?_=1688461250365

    And also

    https://support.google.com/webmasters/thread/221027803?hl=en&msgid=221464164

    It was painful to say the least - as it turns out, there was an issue in NodeBB core that prevented spiders from getting to content, which as far as I understand, is now fixed. SEO in itself is a dark art - a black box that nobody really fully understands, and it’s essentially going to boil down to one thing - “content”.

    Google’s algorithm for indexing has also changed dramatically over the years. They only now crawl content that has value, so if it believes that your site has nothing to offer, it will simply skip it.

    @dave1904 I’d start by adding a console.log function to hookData so you can see what is being returned

    return hookData; console.log(hookData):

    @dave1904 that’s a really good point actually. I know it was there previously on Persona, but you’re right - no such function exists on harmony.

    However, putting something in place to mimick the behaviour of Persona won’t be hard from the js standpoint, although I wonder if perhaps we should ask the NodeBB developers is this feature was overlooked?

    @phenomlab That will be nice once they have completed that. It will be interesting to see how long that takes. So for now I will use custom css to make it look the way I want. Frameworks just make things a little faster. Thanks @phenomlab

    @phenomlab said in NodeBB changing color of the text:

    @marusaky This ought to to it

    a.permalink, a.permalink:active, a.permalink:focus, a.permalink:hover { color: #ffffff; }

    works great, thanks a lot

    @pwsincd I think you can use userData.isAdmin = isAdmin; if I’m not mistaken - see
    https://community.nodebb.org/topic/15128/how-to-hide-whitelist-user-field-only-to-owner-or-admin?_=1648802303112 for an example
