    Looks better on the left I think - more natural

    @DownPW I’ll make some small adjustments to the final code to accommodate this. Just need to write the session cookie data, then I’ll release the code.

    @DownPW Can you let me know if you used the same code for the footer as what is here ? I think this is the case, but want to check. There needs to be some modifications to this code to support the footer toggle.

    Updated position of collapse/expand so it’s on the left for a more natural feel

    Instructions

    1. Go to /admin/extend/widgets and locate the “Global Footer” widget
    2. At the very top of the existing code you have in that widget, add

    <div id="console-nav-tab"><i class="fa-solid fa-angles-left"></i></div>

    1. Add this CSS
    div#console-nav-tab {
    position: fixed;
        bottom: 0px;
        z-index: 900;
        height: 30px;
        left: 0px;
    }
    div#console-nav-tab i {
        font-size: 16px;
        margin-left: 10px;
        line-height: 2.0 !important;
    }
    .toBottom {
       bottom: 0px !important;
    }
    

    Note, that you probably need to modify the existing CSS ID floatleft to accommodate the additional DIV and icon. For example

    #floatleft {
        float: left;
        padding-left: 30px; /*additional left padding to support additional DIV and icon */
        font-size: 80%;
        line-height: 2.0;
        font-weight: 600;
        display: flex;
    }
    
    1. Go to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-js and add this block of code (bottom is fine, or wherever you want to place it)
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            var getState = localStorage.getItem("footer");
            if (getState === "hidden") {
                $("#console-nav-footer").hide();
                $("#console-nav-tab i").addClass("fa-solid fa-angles-right");
                $('.pagination-block').addClass("toBottom");
            } else {
                $("#console-nav-tab i").addClass("fa-solid fa-angles-left");
                $('.pagination-block').removeClass("toBottom");
            }
            $("#console-nav-tab").click(function() {
                $("#console-nav-footer").toggle(250, function() {
                    if ($("#console-nav-footer").is(":hidden")) {
                        localStorage.setItem("footer", "hidden");
                        $("#console-nav-tab i").addClass("fa-solid fa-angles-right");
                        $('.pagination-block').addClass("toBottom");
                    } else {
                        localStorage.setItem("footer", "shown");
                        $("#console-nav-tab i").addClass("fa-solid fa-angles-left");
                        $('.pagination-block').removeClass("toBottom");
                    }
                });
                $("i", this).toggleClass("fa-solid fa-angles-left fa-solid fa-angles-right");
            });
        });
    });
    
    1. Test, and make necessary modifications to suit your own environment

    ha oki lol 😉

    another request but if it’s not possible, it does not matter 🙂

    Can we imagine when the footerbar is reduced, we descend the pagination block automatically ?

    it would be cleaner. what do you think ?

    @DownPW that should be possible, yes. Leave it with me

  • wrote on last edited by phenomlab

    @DownPW instructions restored

    Fixed:

    • Footer does not collapse correctly on reload
    • Record session state in session, and not cookies (mostly because cookies can be disabled)
    • Pagination bar drops to fill missing footer on collapse
    • Correct icon direction displayed when expanding and collapsing

    Let me know how you get on.

    Note that there may be some cosmetic issues on mobile devices, which I will work through if necessary. In some cases it’s actually better to hide the footer altogether on mobile because of the screen estate.

    Here’s what it looks like

    Very good job Mark 😉

    –> I may have done something wrong but everything is ok except the pagination block which does not go down automatically.

    An idea ?

    @DownPW one of the many freely available screen recorders for chrome (extensions). Nothing fancy.

    @DownPW Hmm - it’ll work with iFramely (locally hosted), or you can use the below string to embed using https://community.nodebb.org/topic/7135/nodebb-plugin-ns-embed-ns-embed/114 Watch (?:<a.*?)?(?:https?:\/\/)?(?:www\.)?dailymotion\.com\/video\/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]{4,11})(?:.*?\/a>)?

    @DownPW We just have to change the cycles automatically according to each period ? Yes, this is by far the safest I think it is possible to achieve the goal, I have already seen this kind of thing on a site without any perf problems. It’s certainly possible, but not without issues or impact to performance (in my view)

    @riekmedia I’ve applied some new CSS to your site. Can you reload the page and try again ? For the record, this is what I added #footer { background: #2d343e; border-top: 4px solid #2d343e; font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 70px; padding: 80px 0 0; position: relative; clear: both; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 0; z-index: 1000; margin-left: -15px; margin-right: -338px; } The /categories page seems a bit messed up, so looking at that currently EDIT - issued some override CSS in the CATEGORIES widget <!--- CSS fix for overspill on /categories page - DO NOT DELETE --> <style> #footer { margin-right: -45px; } </style> That should resolve the /categories issue.
