Threaded post support for NodeBB

Let's Build It
  • @phenomlab

    seem you use a border non ?

    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .timeline-event.highlight, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component="post/placeholder"].highlight, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component=post].highlight {
        border: 2px solid var(--bs-post-unread) !important;
    }
    
  • @DownPW no, it’s a box shadow

  • odd i see this code in dev console, search better 🙂

    I see too li.pt-4.self-post.highlight.threaded I don’t have this

    EDIT :

    yes resolved by this code :

    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .timeline-event.highlight, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component="post/placeholder"].highlight, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component=post].highlight.threaded {
        border: 2px solid var(--bs-post-unread) !important;
        border-radius: var(--bs-border-radius);
    }
    
    li.pt-4.self-post.highlight.threaded {
        margin-left: 0rem !important;
      }
    

    – RESULT :

  • Here I am again Mark @phenomlab 😉

    I am contributing to this code to add a tooltip to the button.

    The position can be changed according to your wishes.
    For my part, I prefer to put it at the bottom because if we put it at the top it can be annoying.

    Tell me what you think about it ?

    function threaded() {
        $(document).ready(function () {
            // Check if the screen width is 1200px or more
            if ($(window).width() >= 1200) {
                // Check if the dropdown already exists
                if ($('#enableThreading').length === 0) {
                    var threadView = $('<div class="threads-wrapper"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-bars left"></i><form class="form"><div class="form-check form-switch sticky-tools-bar"> \
                        <input class="form-check-input" id="enableThreading" type="checkbox" data-field="enableThreading"> \
                        <label class=" d-none d-md-inline fw-semibold" for="enableThreading"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-bars-staggered right"></i></label> \
                    </div></form></div>');
                    $('.topic .sticky-tools ul [component="topic/browsing-users"]:last-of-type').append(threadView);
                    // Check if there's a stored state for the checkbox and update it
                    var storedState = localStorage.getItem('enableThreadingState');
                    if (storedState === 'true') {
                        $('#enableThreading').prop('checked', true);
                    }
                }
                
                // Add a tooltip to the button
                $('#enableThreading').tooltip({
                    title: 'Thread View On/Off', // Replace with your tooltip text
                    placement: 'Bottom', // Adjust the placement as needed
                    trigger: 'hover', // Show tooltip on hover
                });
                
                // Toggle the class 'threaded' on or off when the checkbox changes state
                $('#enableThreading').on('change', function () {
                    var isChecked = $(this).is(':checked');
                    if (isChecked) {
                        console.log('Thread view is active.');
                        $('ul[component="topic"]').addClass('threaded');
                        $('.posts-container').addClass('threaded');
                        $('ul[component="topic"]').addClass('threaded');

                        $('[component="post"]').each(function () {
                            // Add the 'threaded' class to matching elements
                            if ($(this).hasClass('pt-4') || $(this).hasClass('self-post')) {
                                $(this).addClass('threaded');
                                $('.topic .sticky-tools').addClass('threaded');
                            }
                        });
                    } else {
                        console.log('Thread view is inactive.');
                        $('[component="post"]').removeClass('threaded');

    $(window).on('action:posts.edited', function (data) {

    CYA my friend

  • @DownPW looks good to me 😀 I started to write this a few days ago, but got sidetracked and never finished it.

    Good job.

  • I forgot the screen 🙂

    image.png

  • @DownPW looks great.

  • And just modified this for better display (centered)

    .threads-wrapper {
        display: flex;
        position: relative;
        /* top: -2px; */
        top: 1px;
    }
    
  • @DownPW yes, it was styled for this site because it uses heavily modified css.

  • @phenomlab

    I note, however, that here on Sudonix, our own posts and those of other users are not shifted (to the left). Only those of the author of the topics are.

    In the code you provide on Github, the author’s posts and those of others are shifted (to the left), only our own posts are not.

    I do not know if it’s normal.

    It actually seems logical to me that only our own posts are not shifted to just better identify our own posts

  • @DownPW Correct. The design in DEV and the code on Git reflects the points you raised, which is why it was developed from scratch in DEV and was not a copy of PROD. It’s a matter of personal taste 🙂 You can fairly easily change the cosmetic behavior to suit your needs - it’s not set in stone.

  • @DownPW Maybe go one better perhaps, and toggle the on/off state depending on the switch selection (I’m doing that here)

  • it’s cool too ^^

  • this code does not work for me. No button

    EDIT:

    The code on github is OK, not the last share above

  • @DownPW said in Threading support for NodeBB:

    The code on github is OK, not the last share above

    Sorry - changed that to the Git link

  • Just don’t forget to comment out lines for browsing-users plugin

    I’m got screwed 😉

    Good work my friend

  • @DownPW This part?

    $('.topic .sticky-tools ul .hidden-xs').append(threadView);
    // If you have browsing users plugin, comment out the above line and uncomment the one below
    //$('.topic .sticky-tools ul [component="topic/browsing-users"]:last-of-type').append(threadView);
    

    Yes, I need to fix that! Thanks for the reminder.

  • For anyone else browsing here who has tried the code in git but wants it to look exactly like Sudonix, please note that this code is not public because it is heavily adapted to match the layout of this site. There are some Sudonix “clones” around so you can actually have this code if you really want it, but it comes with some conditions;

    1. You should consider buying me a coffee - see “Buy me a Coffee” link
    2. You have to provide a backlink to this site from your own - it needs to be visible and cannot be hidden - obviously, I can’t (and won’t) make you do this, but it’s courteous to recognize the original author - particularly when hundreds of hours were spent creating all of this eye candy 🙂
  • Hello @phenomlab

    I see this, when someone composes, it is displayed via the plugin like this (To the left of the Thread View button.). I do not know if it’s normal or if it is better to put it on the right like the others ?

    image.png

    or myself for example :

    @OT I honestly am not able to replicate this. Can you PM me a link to a post on your forum with the specific issue so I can have a look?

    @crazycells it is, yes - I think I’ll leave it as there is no specific PWA CSS classes I know of. Well, you could use something like the below, but this means multiple CSS files for different operating systems.

    /** * Determine the mobile operating system. * This function returns one of 'iOS', 'Android', 'Windows Phone', or 'unknown'. * * @returns {String} */ function getMobileOperatingSystem() { var userAgent = navigator.userAgent || navigator.vendor || window.opera; // Windows Phone must come first because its UA also contains "Android" if (/windows phone/i.test(userAgent)) { return "Windows Phone"; } if (/android/i.test(userAgent)) { return "Android"; } if (/iPad|iPhone|iPod/.test(userAgent) && !window.MSStream) { return "iOS"; } return "unknown"; // return “Android” - one should either handle the unknown or fallback to a specific platform, let’s say Android }

    Once you’re in that rabbit hole, it’s impossible to get out of it.

    @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!

    are they cached for each user separately?

    No. It’s a shared cache

    @eveh Welcome board 🙂

    The code you are referring to is custom written as no such functionality exists under NodeBB. However, adding the functionality is relatively trivial. Below are the required steps

    Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-header Add the below code to your header, and save once completed <ol id="mainbanner" class="breadcrumb"><li id="addtext">Your Title Goes Here</li></ol> Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-js and add the below code, then save $(document).ready(function() { $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) { // Initialise mainbanner ID, but hide it from view $('#mainbanner').hide(); var pathname = window.location.pathname; if (pathname === "/") { $("#addtext").text("Your Title"); $('#mainbanner').show(); } else {} // If we want to add a title to a sub page, uncomment the below and adjust accordingly //if (pathname === "/yourpath") { //$("#addtext").text("Your Title"); //$('#mainbanner').show(); //} }); }); Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-css and add the below CSS block .breadcrumb { right: 0; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; background: #0086c4; color: #ffffff; width: 100vw; position: relative; margin-left: -50vw; left: 50%; top: 50px; position: fixed; z-index: 1020; }

    Note, that you will need to adjust your CSS code to suit your own site / requirements.
