    @DownPW developing against sudonix.dev currently so you have something to test. Almost done, but still needs some work.

    do you think it can be adapted for the stock default display of topics?

    @DownPW yes, but it’ll need a rewrite to be compatible with the stock NodeBB harmony theme. Sudonix makes a lot changes to the default layout so without those additional modifications, it’ll look odd.

    ooh ok. I would have liked to apply it on my site too bad for me then 🙂

    @DownPW not necessarily. I can still develop something for you to use as a base.

    Oh really ?
    That would be super cool 🙂

    Have 2 versions maybe. One adapted to your personalized code and one adapted to Harmony (without customizing the appearance of topics (stock))

    I’m probably asking too much 🙂

    Nope. Not at all. I’m fact, developing one from stock Harmony is probably a better idea as it’ll work out of the box.

    Leave it with me.

    I’ve set my DEV environment to vanilla and will develop a working solution for that.

    Hi All,

    Some very early (subject to the odd bug) code released in DEV. You will need an account there - let me know if you need a password reset

    https://sudonix.dev/topic/331/how-to-install-a-self-hosted-instance-of-iframely-for-use-with-nodebb

    This code is quite complex, and leverages some interesting CSS classes. The most important change is that it removes the stock timeline bar, and will replace it with it’s own. This is for a variety of reasons - mostly around cumulative layout shift and pseudo elements being used in the stock CSS.

    @DownPW It only triggers at 1200px and above - do you have your browser size set smaller?

    Just added some transition effects. Note that depending on how many elements there are on the screen, this might cause layout shift.

    @phenomlab said: @DownPW thanks for spotting (and fixing) this issue. I admittedly threw this together quickly for @jac some time ago, and it hasn’t had any love since. If OK with you, I’ll merge these changes into the github repository? No problem dude

    @Panda said in Nodebb design: One negative is not being so good for SEO as more Server side rendered forums, if web crawlers dont run the JS to read the forum. From recollection, Google and Bing have the capability to read and process JS, although it’s not in the same manner as a physical person will consume content on a page. It will be seen as plain text, but will be indexed. However, it’s important to note that Yandex and Baidu will not render JS, although seeing as Google has a 90% share of the content available on the web in terms of indexing, this isn’t something you’ll likely lose sleep over. @Panda said in Nodebb design: The “write api” is preferred for server-to-server interactions. This is mostly based around overall security - you won’t typically want a client machine changing database elements or altering data. This is why you have “client-side” which could be DOM manipulation etc, and “server-side” which performs more complex operations as it can communicate directly with the database whereas the client cannot (and if it can, then you have a serious security flaw). Reading from the API is perfectly acceptable on the client-side, but not being able to write. A paradigm here would be something like SNMP. This protocol exists as a UDP (UDP is very efficient, as it is “fire and forget” and does not wait for a response like TCP does) based service which reads performance data from a remote source, thus enabling an application to parse that data for use in a monitoring application. In all cases, SNMP access should be “RO” (Read Only) and not RW (Read Write). It is completely feasible to assume complete control over a firewall for example by having RW access to SNMP and then exposing it to the entire internet with a weak passphrase. You wouldn’t do it (at least, I hope you wouldn’t) and the same ethic applies to server-side rendering and the execution of commands.

    @phenomlab That will be nice once they have completed that. It will be interesting to see how long that takes. So for now I will use custom css to make it look the way I want. Frameworks just make things a little faster. Thanks @phenomlab
