@Panda because there is no match for the DNS entry specified. The receiving web server parses the headers looking for a destination hostname to match, and anything the web server is unable to resolve will be sent back to the root.
Whitespace fixes in Nodebb
-
I would like to create my own theme, but dont know where to start really.
In the interim is there CSS that can be added to thin down the whitespace on the header, which takes up half the screen on my mobile.
So here is screenshot of a forum
Although the Title isnt very high there is whitespace below and above it.
And there is even more whitespace before the first category heading.As comparison, there is also a lot of whitespace on sudonix site, but that banner does contain more graphics.
But its similar in taking up >50% screen before posts begin (on mobile).What I would like to achieve is the title remaining as it is, but with less whitespace above and below it?
-
Just as further example, going into a post the whole screen is taken up before the post text shows.
Also @phenomlab are you aware these badges overlap (circled)
-
What screen size are you using, and what device? I’m not seeing that issue on my OnePlus 9 Pro
-
@phenomlab Samsung Flip4
3088 high
x 1440 widePerhaps it is my device then, it has narrower screen in comparison to height

@Panda just circling back on this based on your list concerning badges overlapping.
This is what I see on my mobile
-
This is exactly why I never really liked CSS. It can so easily go wrong on different resolution screens!
When I wrote games, I would use Javascript on Canvas, with my own font so that everything was scaled as % of screen width and height.
I had my own library for this. It was the only way to guarantee everything works on all devices.Look at this: its a mess, and Flip4 is not an uncommon device
What does having this extra Tag saying Author really add?
I dont want to be critical, but it might be better to have the user group badges as shorter names, then that would reduce overlaps? -
@phenomlab yes thats a point that font size is an Android system setting, so another variable.
So its not on largest but more than half way up

@Panda said in Whitespace fixes in Nodebb:
Collaborator is quite a long badge name,
Yes, I need to re-think these names actually.
@Panda said in Whitespace fixes in Nodebb:
Whats your list of all the group categories? Is Sage top, how did you chose these names?
See below
In actual fact, even “Supreme” won’t be the top rank - at 50,000 upvotes, you’d need to be almost god-like
-
@phenomlab
Interesting. Because it is not obvious which name is what rank, I suggest an alphabetical list.
For example, something like
ACE (highest)
COMMANDER
EXPERT
GURU
ROOKIE
STARTER (lowest) -
@Panda I see your point, but I won’t be changing to an alphabetic system - but would consider stars. I know @crazycells uses ranking like this.
-
@phenomlab yeap, I like the stars… very intuitive…
we have them from 1 to 5, but I am considering extending it to 7. additionally we have small icons such as a youtube sign for users with youtube channels, etc.
in the past , forums used to have military rankings… captain, major, general etc. that is what the initial recommendation by our users was… sometimes these ranks would have lines and stars next to it… so the idea in the forum evolved to have only stars as ranks… users are happy with this…
-
@crazycells You’re both raising really good points here. The wording in all honesty was to get it started, but it’s become much more than that - particularly as original members have much higher rankings. I’ll take a look at this over the weekend.

Missed this question. This specific tag adds “author” to who originally created the topic. It’s a useful way of identifying the original poster throughout a long thread.

@Panda Just circling back here with something of an update (which I think you’ll like). I’ve completely restructured the ranking system. There are now less ranks, with a higher point threshold to reach them.
More importantly, if you reload the site, you’ll notice that the ranks are now icons.
I also removed the “Author” badge, and made this a single icon, which (to me) looks much better.
