    @phenomlab actually, it does not work on our forum…

    You are sure that that plugin does that, right? I guess it might be because we have NodeBB installed as a subfolder /forum … Do you think this might be the reason?

    @phenomlab

    The topic is a little old so sorry to revive 😊 My forum is sooo small and to be honest just for my learning so there is nothing on it. When i am happy with it I will ‘advertise it’ for its purpose.

    Anyway this is a really nice plugin and I also use. I get a little strange behavior but it is not when i hover over all the time.

    If i click on it it just goes green.

    As you see in other areas that it seems to be ok. (although with the only deafult themes I like it is not so good )

    Any ideas? I think i have uninstalled NodeBB and started again about 4 times haha so maybe traces of ‘bad stuff’ 😊

    @Sampo2910 hey. The behavior you were seeing is in fact normal. The card will only display in the actual post view and not in the main list. Clicking the avatar in the recent view (or any others) simply selects that post for multiple functions which explains the reason for turning green, and the avatar replaced by a check mark.

    @Panda It’s the best it’s ever been to be honest. I’ve used a myriad of systems in the past - most notably, WordPress, and then Flarum (which for SEO, was absolutely dire - they never even had SEO out of the box, and relied on a third party extension to do it), and NodeBB easily fares the best - see below example https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Asudonix.org&oq=site%3Asudonix.org&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i60j69i58j69i60l2.9039j0j3&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#ip=1 However, this was not without significant effort on my part once I’d migrated from COM to ORG - see below posts https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17286/google-crawl-error-after-site-migration/17?_=1688461250365 And also https://support.google.com/webmasters/thread/221027803?hl=en&msgid=221464164 It was painful to say the least - as it turns out, there was an issue in NodeBB core that prevented spiders from getting to content, which as far as I understand, is now fixed. SEO in itself is a dark art - a black box that nobody really fully understands, and it’s essentially going to boil down to one thing - “content”. Google’s algorithm for indexing has also changed dramatically over the years. They only now crawl content that has value, so if it believes that your site has nothing to offer, it will simply skip it.

    @Panda Just circling back here with something of an update (which I think you’ll like). I’ve completely restructured the ranking system. There are now less ranks, with a higher point threshold to reach them. More importantly, if you reload the site, you’ll notice that the ranks are now icons. I also removed the “Author” badge, and made this a single icon, which (to me) looks much better.

    @phenomlab Ah, got it working! I reversed the CSS addition to put z index high, and then I could see another error box saying fork title must be at least 3 characters. So made the new fork title longer and button responded.

    @DownPW I see why. The code relies on the existence of [component="topic/quickreply/container"] However, this by definition means that the below has to be enabled [image: aeef638f-4188-489d-a9f2-f3a26dbca9d8-image.png] It will then work [image: 7fb38631-e0f3-46ef-b652-00929d927b13-image.png] For some unknown reason, this is hidden in Harmony, and only shows if you select it. In v2, it seems that the <section> is deleted altogether in Persona if “Quick Reply” is disabled, meaning it won’t fire as it can’t locate that specific component. The downside is that you might not want the quick reply function, but I think it’s a PITA to scroll up to the top of the post just to reply, so I have it on

    @cagatay You’d target the body tag and use the below line of CSS background: url(/assets/customcss/backgrounds/default/default.png) no-repeat center center fixed; Obviously, you need to change the path to suit where your image is being stored. More info around the background property can be found here https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_background.php
