    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.

    @cagatay The most reliable way to upgrade Node.js on Ubuntu depends on how you originally installed it. Method 1: Using NVM (Recommended) If you already use Node Version Manager (NVM), upgrading is simple. NVM allows you to keep both versions and switch between them if needed. Install Node 22: nvm install 22 Switch to Node 22: nvm use 22 Set it as your default: nvm alias default 22 Verify the change: node -v Method 2: Using NodeSource (PPA) If you installed Node.js via apt using the NodeSource repository, you need to update the repository script to point to the new version. Remove the old NodeSource list (optional but cleaner): sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list Download and run the NodeSource setup script for Node 22: curl -fsSL [https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_22.x](https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_22.x) | sudo -E bash - Install/Upgrade Node.js: sudo apt-get install -y nodejs Verify the installation: node -v Method 3: Using the ‘n’ Package If you have npm installed, you can use the n interactive manager. Clear the npm cache: sudo npm cache clean -f Install the ‘n’ helper: sudo npm install -g n Install Node 22: sudo n 22 Update your shell: hash -r Troubleshooting Permission Denied: If you see permission errors using Method 2 or 3, ensure you are using sudo. Path Issues: If node -v still shows version 20 after upgrading via NVM, restart your terminal or run source ~/.bashrc. Conflicts: Avoid mixing these methods. If you switch from apt to nvm, it is best to sudo apt remove nodejs first to avoid path conflicts.

    @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

    @kadir-ay-0 marking as resolved based on https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17109/manual-build-a-night-mode-for-harmony/5 Please do not raise requests in two places - here and the NodeBB forums. All this does is create unnecessary load for both parties.

    @phenomlab I am on a Mac, so I used the “Option + Command + I”, and then performed the steps. It loaded my favicon! I checked on Firefox which I haven’t used before, and it showed my favicon also! That’s fantastic and thank you for the help!

    @phenomlab said in nodebb dropdown menu: @kurulumu-net You set it like the below example taken from this site [image: 1637939951821-aae36790-3257-4bb2-ad5a-0d744309876a-image.png] Which presents this [image: 1637939983445-77f47260-2941-4afe-9614-8e17dcfc8c19-image.png] Very interesting… I actually thought this wasn’t possible, as I remember it being asked in the NodeBB forum. Is this something new that’s been implemented? I’ll 100% be doing that when I’m on the laptop over the weekend.
