    One or 2 classes are missing in Thread ON mode but this is the logic I want.

    What have you done that I can understand and modify?

    @DownPW Good…

    Added

      li.pt-4.threaded {
        background: var(--bs-body-navbar) !important;
    }
    

    Modified

      .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); 
        border-radius: var(--bs-border-radius);
      }
    
  • hmm Ok
    For once I don’t understand the logic 🙂

    Just one thing I have added befor one Thread ON mode :

    @DownPW Caching issue I think. Seems to work ok for me

    Threading On

    Threading Off

  • Hmm problem, incognito mode and on your screen = not thread mode with Threadinf ON 🙂 (see my last self post/last post)

    And I see this rest of thread ON border-radius on vanilla :

    Seem very hard to understand

    @DownPW This one?

    Seems fine to me?

    For the radius issue on highlight, this will fix it (I updated your CSS already)

    .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-left: 2px solid #0d6efd !important;
        margin-left: 22px;
        transition: transform 0.3s ease !important;
        border-radius: 0px;
    }

  • nope we have top and bottom left border radius. On vanilla harmony, we have not

  • but the most important thing for now is that we lost the Threading effect

    No, you don’t - see my screenshot…

  • ah ok you just edited

  • but the most important thing for now is that we lost the Threading effect

    Nope. I see this as working correctly in standard and incognito mode.

  • Arf yes sorry. Apologies

    But it’s seem we have lost margin-left

    you have same things ?

    @DownPW Can you provide the URL for that specific thread?

  • And this margin :

    image.png

    I have added before a margin between the topic and the timeline icon.

    we’ll come to an understanding 🙂

    But I admit that I don’t really understand.

    Neither do I ! 😕

  • For this we can use in Threading ON :

    .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 !important;
    }
    

    And this :

    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline [component="topic/event"].timeline-event, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline [component="topic/necro-post"].timeline-event {
        margin-bottom: 10px !important;
    }
    

    RESULT :

  • hi @phenomlab , it is nice that the switch only appears when the screen can be changed however, when the screen size is around 1250 pixels, I guess it does not produce the intended view, maybe you should increase the screen size further to make sure this switch is only available when the screen can accommodate nice thread view?

  • @phenomlab

    It looks like I got something working by adding this code

    li.pt-4.self-post:not(.self-post .topic-owner-post).threaded {
      margin-left: 0rem;
    }
    
    li.pt-4.self-post.threaded {
      margin-left: 0rem;
    }
    
    li.necro-post.text-muted.timeline-event.d-flex.gap-2.pt-4.threaded {    
      background: transparent !important;
      margin-bottom: 10px !important;
    }
    
  • Better for me now @phenomlab .

    I have just seen this bug (see the video below)

    EXPLAIN:

    I have Threading mode ON, Space bettween timeline event and topic is good. I refresh the page with CTRL + F5.

    The last post is displayed highlighted then the div moves to its original place (too bad, it’s long) with the desired margin and then the beetween timeline event and topic space is no longer the same. To find the correct space that we had before refreshing the page, I have to deactivate Thread mode and reactivate it

    • It’s a shame to wait until the last message is highlighted for the margin to take effect.
    • It’s also a shame to deactivate/reactivate the mode to find the correct margin.

    VIDEO FOR BETTER EXPLAIN :

    Other things, I deactivate threadeChat function in function.js because don’t work for now now 😉

    @DownPW thanks. Let me review

    @crazycells good point. 1200 is a bit too generic I think and perhaps we need to only execute on a more forgiving resolution.

    @DownPW Having reviewed this, it looks like layout shift is causing this - let me have a look at the most efficient way to counter this.

    @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 Interesting Widget code, but can’t fetch API: How did you drop that widget into the post there? I hadnt seen this BSgenerator anywhere on sudonix site, do you use it somewhere already? Yes, here https://sudonix.org/topic/414/corporate-bullshit-generator?_=1687774393044 It’s not a “post” or “topic” in the common sense. It is actually a page in it’s own right and leverages nodebb-plugin-custom-pages. This in turn creates a new “route” which behaves like a page, meaning it is then exposed for widgets. @Panda said in Interesting Widget code, but can’t fetch API: Also can you explain more what you mean by calling the code externally. In my API call example, how would I go about doing that? By this, I mean create all the required code in an external JS file that is reachable by the NodeBB instance - so, in “public” for example - or in my case /public/js. The widget then “calls” that file and because it runs outside of the scope of NodeBB, you just need to return the values to the widget. Hope this makes sense?

    The real issue here is that most people consider forums to be “dead” in the sense that nobody uses them anymore, and social media groups have taken their place. Their once dominant stance in the 90’s and early 00’s will never be experienced again, but having said that, there are a number of forums that did in fact survive the social media onslaught, and still enjoy a large user base. Forums tend to be niche. One that immediately sticks out is Reddit - despite looking like it was designed in the 80s, it still has an enormous user base. Another is Stack Overflow, which needs no introduction. The key to any forum is the content it offers, and the more people whom contribute in terms of posting , the more popular and widely respected it becomes as a reliable source of information. Forums are still intensely popular with gamers, alongside those that offer tips on hacking etc.

    @phenomlab I find the problem Mark The error message indicated this path : http://localhost:4567/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/styles.css?v=6983dobg16u I change the path url on config.json [image: 1645128773854-47bacc80-f141-41e4-a261-3f8d650cc6f6-image.png] And all it’s good Weird, I didn’t have to change that path before 1.19.3 But this does not prevent the problem from a clean install with Emoji Plugin EDIT: After test, that resolv the problem installation for 1.18.x but not for 1.19.x (I have other error message when I run ./nodebb Setup For resume: NodeJS 16_x with 1.18.x is ok
