Threaded post support for NodeBB

Let's Build It
  • @DownPW said in Threading support for NodeBB:

    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; 
       }
    
  • 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 ?

  • @DownPW said in Threading support for NodeBB:

    What do you think about it ?

    Great idea. I’ll add that.

  • maybe with an HTML SPAN class like this ?

    <span class="title-tooltip top" tooltip-text="Thread View On">
    
  • @DownPW yes, that should work, although probably better to use one tooltip with on/off text.

  • 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

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

    See

    background: var(--bs-body-bg);
    background: var(--bs-body navbar)!important;
    
  • I have just forget to delete the first but this nothing change.

  • @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.

  • i have a problem with my codes 😞

    Can you post the current function code you have?

  • sure :

    function threaded() {
        $(document).ready(function () {
            // Check if the screen width is 1200px or more
            if ($(window).width() >= 1200) {
                // Check if the dropdown already exists
                if ($('#enableThreading').length === 0) {
                    var threadView = $('<div class="threads-wrapper"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-bars left"></i><form class="form"><div class="form-check form-switch sticky-tools-bar"> \

  • @DownPW Thanks. You should remove the threadedChat function and these lines

    $(window).on('action:chat.loaded', function(data) {
            threadedChat();
    });
    $(window).on('action:chat.received', function(data) {
            threadedChat();
    });
    

    That code is not functional yet and is very experimental 🙂

    I’ll have a look at your DEV environment to make the code recommendations.

  • @DownPW I changed your CSS as it was lacking the actual .threaded class which is the target we add and remove

    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline [component="topic/event"].timeline-event, .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline [component="topic/necro-post"].timeline-event.threaded {
        background: transparent !important;
        margin-bottom: 10px !important;
    }
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .threaded:last-child .timeline-event:last-child,
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .threaded:last-child>[component="post/placeholder"]:last-child,
    .page-topic .topic .posts.timeline .threaded:last-child>[component=post]:last-child {
        margin-left: 0.5rem !important;
    }
    

    Seems to work, but can you confirm?

  • nope

    Sorry I was on my way back from work @phenomlab

    So in fact I’m already going to try adding .threaded to the CSS code.

    When I activate Thread mode, everything is OK however when I deactivate Thread mode, certain classes remain and are not deleted

    For example here, without Thread mode, the background is not returned to vanilla and the same thing for the border-radius :

    0a214db5-6435-49dc-b04d-52842ba0b28d-image.png

  • @DownPW For clarity, I didn’t change all of the classes - only the two you posted last

    Threading off

    Threading on

    a92e0031-cf0c-416e-a1f7-53a6cb3a6631-image.png

  • yep but these 2 class have problem, on your screens, with Threading Off, background color use –bs-body-navbar and not –bs-body-bg.
    And if you seen topi event is not transparent like vanilla

    @crazycells Good points, thanks. I completely forgot that classes are added - makes life much simpler!

    EDIT - seems this is pretty straightforward, and only needs the below CSS

    .upvoted i { color: var(--bs-user-level) !important; }

    This then yields

    3f072f8a-ebfa-4910-8723-73c493b8e4eb-image.png

    However, the caveat here is that the .upvoted class will only show for your upvotes, and nobody else’s. However, this does satisfy the original request

    however I would love to see my upvoted posts more clearly, because currently, when I upvote, nothing on the post tool is changing, it would be nicer if there is an indication that I have upvoted (like a filled or colored triangle?)

    @DownPW exactly. Not really a new concept, and in all honesty, not something I’ve ever used.

    If you consider the need to add links and references, or citations, you’d need to be able to see other parts of the screen!

    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

    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

    @kurulumu-net You set it like the below example taken from this site

    Which presents this

    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.
