Custom badges

@crazycells That makes sense.

I wonder if we could do it for each badge without changing the color of course and keep the color of the original badges.

Curious to see what it would look like

no, this does not work. the overlap of a wavy edge circle and a circle becomes a circle. so, you cannot detect any flower shape with this method. The way that I achieved this was by removing the background color (making it transparent by CSS although there is an assigned color for it in ACP) and then creating a new flower shape on top of it by CSS.

@crazycells just thinking about this. Wouldn’t it be easier to just use font awesome?

as far as I remember, we discussed this before and you mentioned that that badge is not in the free tier.

@crazycells Yes, you’re right

@crazycells This intrigued me somewhat, I won’t lie I decided to take a stab at this myself.

@phenomlab is there a problem in the forum?

I refreshed several times, nothing changed…

phenomlab · 30 May 2023, 15:41

@crazycells Sorry, yes. Fixed that now.

crazycells · 30 May 2023, 15:44

@phenomlab it looks very nice but I guess one needs a subscription to use this, right?

I am looking forward to seeing that on the avatars as “verified badge”, please do not forget to share your CSS code for its position when you implement it.

No, there’s no subscription - what do you see ? The CodePen should be public?

crazycells · 30 May 2023, 15:54

@phenomlab yes I can see it very well:

since your code has “/font-awesome/6.4.0/” in it, I assumed you are using pro version.

phenomlab · 30 May 2023, 15:59

@crazycells No, it’s the free version

https://cdnjs.com/libraries/font-awesome

You only need the check mark itself

crazycells · 30 May 2023, 16:00

@phenomlab great then, are you planning to implement it on this forum?

I need to tailor the code for my forum…

phenomlab · wrote on 30 May 2023, 16:00

@crazycells Yes, I think I probably will.

phenomlab · 7 Aug 2023, 18:28

@crazycells Ok, so, I found some time to look at this properly today.

Here’s the result

Notice the “Twitter-esque” verified badge?

I found this

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Twitter_Verified_Badge.svg and downloaded it, then uploaded it to /assets/public/images

Then, I used the below CSS code

    li[component="post"] a[href*="/groups/verified"] {
        position: absolute !important;
        left: 2px;
        z-index: 2;
        margin-top: 1px;
        border-radius: 999px !important;
        line-height: 14px;
        display: block;
        height: auto;
        margin-left: 0px !important;
        background: transparent !important;
        width: auto;
    }

    li[component=post] a[href*="/groups/verified"]:before {
        background: url(https://sudonix.org/assets/images/Twitter_Verified_Badge.svg) !important;
        content: "";
        height: 22px;
        width: 22px;
        display: block;
    }
    li[component=post] a[href*="/groups/verified"]:after {
        background: #ffffff !important;
        height: 9px;
        width: 9px;
        content: "";
        display: block;
        top: 10px;
        position: absolute;
        z-index: -1;
        left: 12px;
    }

Some points to consider

The CSS code extensively uses :before and :after pseudo elements. Essentially, :before adds the SVG icon and positions it, and :after adds a smaller “white square” which is conveniently positioned behind the :before element using z:-index: -1;

The purpose of the “white square” is to provide a dirty way to fill in the transparency which is present in the SVG so it looks right.

This is pretty tough to display on mobile viewports, so it’s best to hide it completely using this code

@media (max-width: 767px) {
    li[component="post"] a[href*="/groups/verified"].badge, .account a[href*="/groups/verified"].badge {
            display: none !important;
        }

EDIT: Just realised that this icon (being a group) is also displayed on the user’s profile page, so we’ll need CSS to make that look good too…

I’ve absolutely no idea who this guy is…

Here it is

    .account a[href*="/groups/verified"] {
        position: absolute !important;
        z-index: 2;
        background: transparent !important;
        margin-left: -10px;
    }
    .account a[href*="/groups/verified"]:after {
        background: #ffffff !important;
        height: 9px;
        width: 10px;
        content: "";
        display: block;
        top: 10px;
        position: absolute;
        z-index: -1;
        left: 12px;
    }
    .account a[href*="/groups/verified"]:before {
        background: url(https://sudonix.org/assets/images/Twitter_Verified_Badge.svg) !important;
        content: "";
        height: 22px;
        width: 22px;
        display: block;
    }

Enjoy.

hello @phenomlab

I am trying to apply your code for the “all” group which all my members are part of.

I downlaod the image of the twitter badge in full resolution and upload in the same place and I access it correctly.

On the other hand it would seem that the badge is displayed badly (cut on the right for the first on the screen) then transparent for the second and on the 3rd it is not displayed aps.

An idea ?

phenomlab · wrote on 9 Jul 2023, 21:22

@DownPW it’s really hard to see that image. I’ll need to look at your dev server directly to see what’s happening here.

DownPW · 9 Jul 2023, 21:41

I just found some answers @phenomlab

It is absolutely necessary that the user is displaying the badge of the group in his profile:

That the question, How to force put the user in a group ?
For the rest of the display bugs, I have not yet found.

Yes, it won’t display without that. I don’t know of a way to force it either.
