    ONE

    I would like to move chat bubbles and WYSIWYG at the left bottom if it’s possible, I test with this bit it’s not perfect :

    .taskbar .navbar-nav {
    padding-right: 1840px;
    padding-bottom: 15px;
    position: relative;
    bottom: 25px !important;
    }
    Thanks for your help in advance Mark 🙂

    TWO

    I have this problem :
    alt text

    The chat windows stays in the background even when I click on it.

    I have zindex on composer and footbar

    This should fix that

    .chat-modal {
        z-index: 5000;
    }

    Can you elaborate a bit more on this in terms of what you are looking to do ?

    @DownPW Try this

    .taskbar.navbar-fixed-bottom {
        right: auto;
        left: 0;
    }
    
  • @DownPW Try this

    .taskbar.navbar-fixed-bottom {
        right: auto;
        left: 0;

    Much cleaner than what I had found:

    .taskbar .navbar-nav {
        padding-right: 1840px;
        padding-bottom: 15px;
        position: relative;
        bottom: 25px !important;
    }
    

    I had not found this property by inspecting the code!! I wonder where you found that one 🙂

    I just added left and bottom space :

    .taskbar.navbar-fixed-bottom {
        right: auto;
        left: 10px;
        bottom: 25px;
    }
    

    RESULT:
    111bb445-d4ca-401e-a620-692b23e37f62-image.png

    Much better with footbar !
    This also allows you to leave the right side quiet already occupied by the paging block !

    Thanks my friend 😉

    How to add icon on categories span time ?

    I will test this code for add Paragraph FA icon for example :

    [component="topic/header"] span.timeago:before {
        content: "\f1dd";
        margin-right: 5px;
        margin-left: 5px;
    }
    

    Result 😞

    @DownPW that won’t work unless you add a font family to go with it - any Unicode characters typically require an associated font family. Try adding

    font-family: "font awesome 5 free"; to the CSS you already have.

    I have test this :

    [component="topic/header"] span.timeago:before {
        content: "\f1c0";
        font-family: "font awesome 5 free";
        margin-right: 5px;
        margin-left: 5px;
        color: black;
    }
    

    But doesn’t work

    @DownPW does it work if you change it to
    Font Awesome 5 Free ? Might need to access your site directly to test this as it works for mine and should also work for you.

    One last thing you can try is adding the below into the CSS class - sometimes needed as the FA5 free icons are solid only, therefore may require

    font-weight: 900;

    Let me know how you get on

    That works with

    font-weight: 900;
    

    Thank you 🙂

  • @DownPW After spending a lot of time on the theme switcher (see referenced post above), I re-wrote some of it as found that there were caching issues with CSS as it always calls the same version number. The new function below resolves that issue.

    I also removed the website prefix, as with relative paths, this is not required 🙂

    // ------------------------------------------
    // Theme Switcher
    // ------------------------------------------
    // On choisit une chaine de caractère aléatoire pour affecter un numéro de version au fichier CSS. 
    // The function below creates a random string which we use for CSS versioning to prevent cache conflicts
    function generateRandomString(length) {
        var text="";
        var possible="ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";
        for (var i=0;
        i < length;
        i++) {
            text+=possible.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length));
        }
        return text;
    }
    
    $(document).ready(function () {

    Can I post it on my site as well?
    And how can one know the path of subject assessments?

    hi @phenomlab

    I use .category-item:first-of-type css properties for add a border-top on my principal pages like recent, unread etc…

    But this properties add a border too on topic header categories name.

    It’s possible to disable it just on topic (topic.header) ?

    @phenomlab

    I think I understand but I don’t find the good CSS class

    here the code for recent page for example :

    .category-item:first-of-type {
    	border-top: 1px solid #0a769978 !important;
        border-top-left-radius: 4px !important;
        border-top-right-radius: 4px !important;
    }
    

    and I will test this for disable border-top on topic page but don’t work:

    .category-item:first-of-type:not(.category-item .inline-block){
    	border-top: 0px solid #0a769978 !important;
    }

    @DownPW A couple of things here. You are using the !important argument twice - one will override the other, meaning they can’t both be set like that - typically, the last marked so will be preferred. Would this not work better ?

    .category-item.inline-block {
        border-top: none !important;
    }
    
    .category-item:first-of-type {
        border-top: 1px solid #0a769978;
        border-top-left-radius: 4px;
        border-top-right-radius: 4px;
    }

    @Sala This should look better .sidenav .navbar-brand { padding-top: 0.5rem; padding-bottom: 0.5rem; } [image: e5cec20e-be36-4ee8-9129-fd11ad4656ac-image.png] You can increase the top and bottom padding by increasing the values above.

    @cagatay You should ask in the NodeBB forums. Perhaps reference this post https://discuss.flarum.org/d/23066-who-read

    @cagatay JS will work fine - no changes there, and there are no plans to drop support for jQuery. More of an issue is the CSS - for which there are quite a few breaking changes. Keep an eye on sudonix.dev (my development site) where you can see progress in relation to how I am tackling the compatibility issues.

    @mike-jones Yes, you’ll typically see this type of behaviour if there is another style that has higher priority in the sense that yours will be overridden. Using !important will override the higher preference, but should be used sparingly rather than everywhere.
