  • On my site An annoying ‘n out of n’ banner comes over the reply button, and the forum bar is just below that
    So I can just see a fraction of the reply button but cant click it.
    I cant even screenshot it to show example now as that seems ‘disabled’ as a new ‘feature’

    Id like to stop screenshot disabled, and remove this ‘8 out of 8 banner’. Is that possible?

  • I’ve just seen the duplicate post on NodeBB. Can you go to /admin/plugins/harmony and match the settings below then save

    That issue is caused by element positioning where the bottom bar should auto hide to prevent that issue. If that doesn’t work, disable the quick reply feature and see if that helps.

    @Panda NodeBB doesn’t disable the ability to take a screenshot. That’s at operating system level not application, so something else is stopping that.

    I’ll need a screenshot of sorts, or access to your forum to be able to see what’s going on.

  • Thanks, can post now.
    I find it disconcerting that ‘out of the box settings’ dont work. If it wasnt for your help I would have broken forum now!
    Thats why sometimes I double post urgent questions on both forums as I appreciate your fast and accurate responses 🙂

    @Panda yes, for some reason, that is the case. If you need an urgent response, it’s probably better to post here because of the time difference.

    @crazycells Good points, thanks. I completely forgot that classes are added - makes life much simpler! EDIT - seems this is pretty straightforward, and only needs the below CSS .upvoted i { color: var(--bs-user-level) !important; } This then yields [image: 1718028529465-3f072f8a-ebfa-4910-8723-73c493b8e4eb-image.png] However, the caveat here is that the .upvoted class will only show for your upvotes, and nobody else’s. However, this does satisfy the original request however I would love to see my upvoted posts more clearly, because currently, when I upvote, nothing on the post tool is changing, it would be nicer if there is an indication that I have upvoted (like a filled or colored triangle?)

    @crazycells yes, I’m aware of that. Need to fix EDIT- fixed. Caused by the same CSS that is used to absolutely position the “verified” group badge in the posts view. Amended this CSS so that is specifically targets the post stream as below li[component="post"] a[href*="/groups/verified"] { position: absolute !important; left: 8px; z-index: 2; margin-top: 1px; border-radius: 999px !important; line-height: 14px; display: block; height: 22px; margin-left: 0px !important; }

    @DownPW Yes, it is. It’s set far too low meaning other elements with a higher preference will sit over the top of it.

    @DownPW I’d have to agree with that.

    @DownPW exactly. Not really a new concept, and in all honesty, not something I’ve ever used. If you consider the need to add links and references, or citations, you’d need to be able to see other parts of the screen!

    @Panda said in Email validation NodeBB: Did you configure that as a custom change to the usual quote icon. How do you do that? I notice on NodeBB site its a solid blue quotes Yes, I changed it. NodeBB by default users the free font awesome library whereas I use the pro (paid) version SDK have access to a wider set of icons, and at different thicknesses etc. The change of colour is just simple CSS.

    @eeeee if you’re using the console, you could try node app.js > app.log 2>&1 This would redirect stdout to a file named app.log and redirect stderr to stdout. I’m not sure about standard logging under NodeBB, but there is an error log located at logs/error.log. Failing that, you could always stop the NodeBB service then use ./nodebb dev from the console which would then provide debug output.

    @mventures Yes, exactly. The other icon will restart NodeBB whilst the first icon I referenced will rebuild (recompile) it. The huge strength of NodeBB over Flarum (for example) is that the code is precompiled, and called once at boot. PHP’s code has to repeatedly reload code from source making it much slower.
