this is very cool. Thanks @phenomlab

[DownPW]

Very cool like as already said above and a big thanks for hard work (I see the th function.js and woowwww )

I test it now and I have see this with plugin user-browsers :

Do you know where it could come from?

This also breaks the display of the site title

Can we do the same thing but without expanding the topic toolbar on header ?

---

EDIT :

I see that you seem put other things in the function.js on github like banner, logo, fancybox…
I said to myself that I found this file way too long without asking too many questions !

–> But I have the bug display with user browsers plugin which I will try to solve

[phenomlab]

@DownPW hmm. Not sure why I copied all of that code, but will change asap. I also have a fix for the browsing users plugin issue but didn’t include it because others might not be using it.

I’ll get to this as soon as I can.

EDIT - Done
EDIT 2 - I just noticed on your DEV box that you have (thanks to me - sorry) a ton of JS code you don’t need. You should probably clean that up.

Yes, but then you’ll have elements that are wider than the sticky bar which looks odd on scroll.

Yes, just fixed it in your dev environment. I assumed (probably incorrectly) that people may not have this installed, so omitted it. I fixed it in prod because I do have it there, but wanted to keep DEV as vanilla as possible.

I’ll need to write a function that checks for the existence of this plugin then determines where to inject the toggle switch

For now, see the below

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

Result (might need some position tweaking…)

[DownPW]

Good, thanks!!!
Test asap, i’m on intervention AT work

Could you still explain to me how to obtain this result so that I can see what I prefer?

Yes, of course. Locate the below block in the CSS, and comment out margin-left: -8%;

  .topic .threaded.sticky-tools { 
     margin-left: -8%; 
     margin-top: 0px; 
     margin-bottom: 0px; 
     transition: margin-left 0.3s ease, margin-right 0.3s ease; 
   }

[DownPW]

Great, thank you Mark !

–> I also have a little suggestion to add a tooltip on the button mouse hover like "Thread view On and thread View Off depending on the state or maybe just one?

What do you think about it ?

[phenomlab]

@DownPW said in Threading support for NodeBB:

Great idea. I’ll add that.

[DownPW]

maybe with an HTML SPAN class like this ?

<span class="title-tooltip top" tooltip-text="Thread View On">

[phenomlab]

@DownPW yes, that should work, although probably better to use one tooltip with on/off text.

[DownPW]

Small specific request.

I try to adapt the code to my environment.

I modified the background of the following classes:

.page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .timeline-event,
.page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component="post/placeholder"],
.page-topic .topic .posts.timeline > [component="post"] {
  border-left: none;
  transition: transform 0.3s ease !important;
  background: var(--bs-body-bg);
  background: var(--bs-body-navbar);
}

.post-container.threaded {
  background: var(--bs-body-bg) !important;
  background: var(--bs-body-navbar)!important;
}

li.pt-4.self-post:not(.self-post .topic-owner-post).threaded {
  transform: translateX(0px) !important;
  transition: transform 0.3s ease !important;
  background: var(--bs-body-bg);
  background: var(--bs-body-navbar)!important;
  padding-right: 30px;
}

and other code, for example :

.page-topic .topic .posts.timeline [component="topic/event"].timeline-event, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline [component="topic/necro-post"].timeline-event {
    background: transparent;
}

.page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .timeline-event:last-child, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline>[component="post/placeholder"]:last-child, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline>[component=post]:last-child {
    margin-left: 0.5rem;
}

When I activate mode it works without problem but it does not disappear when I deactivate the mode. (Return to vanilla)

I think I understand by reading the code that it is necessary to specify the classes chnaged in the function.js (with add .threaded) but I don’t really see how to add more

[phenomlab]

@DownPW any reason as to why you’ve defined background twice ?

See

background: var(--bs-body-bg);
background: var(--bs-body navbar)!important;

[DownPW]

I have just forget to delete the first but this nothing change.

[phenomlab]

@DownPW just curious 🤭

The second would override the first anyway.

I’m in transit currently and not in front of a pc but will review this as soon as I can.
