Threaded post support for NodeBB

Let's Build It
  • @DownPW Caching issue I think. Seems to work ok for me

    Threading On

  • 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

  • @DownPW said in Threading support for NodeBB:

    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

    image.png

    you have same things ?

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

  • And this margin :

    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.

  • @DownPW said in Threading support for NodeBB:

    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 :

    blink2.gif


    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.

  • @DownPW Not layout shift in fact, but a lack of CSS being added during the ajaxify.end - in other words, this class is not being added on page load

    li.necro-post.text-muted.timeline-event.d-flex.gap-2.pt-4.threaded {    
        background: transparent !important;
        margin-bottom: 10px !important;
    }
    

    I believe this is because this component type is being added after the page loads, so in fact, it is not in the DOM when the page loads initially, so it is skipped. I have the same issue on Sudonix, but work around it using the below additional CSS

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

    I’ve added this to the CSS on your site, which “fixes” (albeit dirty) the problem

    Don’t see this directive on ACP/CSS. I add it myself seems that work.

    Currently, the last message is highlighted (in blue on the gif) and then the reply block shifts to the left (using the margin)

    Is there a possibility that the block will move to the margin directly rather than waiting for the blue indicator to disappear?

    It’s a shame to wait until the blue border-left disappears and then the block shifts to the left.
    It would have to shift directly without waiting

    edit :

    thats seems to work here, no delay :

    are they cached for each user separately?

    No. It’s a shared cache

    No. This is handled by nodebb-plugin-ns-embed

    @crazycells pleasure. Using percentages makes much more sense in this case. It’s the same argument with px vs pt vs em with fonts, margins, padding, etc., in the sense that em is generally preferred over px and pt

    @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.

    @crazycells Yeah, looking at the plugin itself, that’s a hard coded limit

    I’ll probably remove that… eventually…

    @jac I just tested my theory around using the OG image, and according to the Twitter card validator, it works fine
