  • Hello Mark 😉

    I use this css code for reduce the image size :

    .topic .posts .content .img-responsive {
        max-width: 45%;
        width: auto;
        padding: 1px;
        border-radius: 4px;
        border: 1px solid #c3c3c3;
        background-color: #F5F5F5;
        margin-top: 5px;
        margin-bottom: 5px;
    }
    

    Would it be possible to have a separate max size just for GIFs extension files (.gif) ?
    I would like the gifs to be smaller than the images

    Thanks in advance @phenomlab 😉

    @DownPW Possible, yes, but it may be a little on the “greedy” side.

    Try this - obviously, remove the red border I used for testing and add your own code

    img[src$="gif"] {
        border: 10px solid red !important;
    }
    

    This is also very useful as a reference

    –> it seem to work with this code: 🙂

    /* max-width for IMG Files */
    .topic .posts .content .img-responsive {
        max-width: 45%;
    }
    
    /* max-width for GIF Files */
    .topic .posts .content .img-responsive[src$="gif"] {
        max-width: 10% !important;
    }
    

    Thanks @phenomlab for the attribute that I don’t find 😉

  • Hello @phenomlab

    It’s possible to add video background (mp4 for example)on nodebb for one theme and not for the other?

  • Hello @phenomlab

    @DownPW yes, but you have to be careful with performance. This can impact the loading of the site depending on the size of the MP4 file and where it is being accessed from.

    File accessible on the server and 22.6 mo

    How can I 'm doing this for testing?

    @DownPW Something like this would work

    <video autoplay muted loop id="bg-video">
      <source src="file.mp4" type="video/mp4">
      Your browser does not support HTML5 video.
    </video>
    

    Then some CSS which you’ll need to play with (this is an example)

    #bg-video{
      position: fixed;
      right: 0;
      bottom: 0;
      min-width: 100%; 
      min-height: 100%;
    }
    
  • hello @phenomlab

    I have a very odd bug that I didn’t have before

    I have images and background color defined for each category

    when I open a new topic, the fa icon on the bottom left taskbar does not appear like when I reply to a topic

    Here a gif too see the problem :

    new topic.gif

    And here is the result I want:

    4557001f-9b28-4a10-84e4-46d0dcffe20d-image.png

    I have tried to play with the color or z-index variable in css but nothing works

    I tried disabling the custom CSS on ACP but it’s the same. clear the cache = same

    Have you an idea ?

    You can test on production forum

    @DownPW I can’t see the images or videos, but I’ll have a look on your production site.

    @DownPW Seems to come from this code

    66521fca-2e73-4d69-820e-2915f1ecd948-image.png

    It should look like this

    Do you have any custom JS that is altering this, or perhaps a plugin ?

    @DownPW This is going to be painful, but it’s possible that one of these plugins is the cause. Have you tried disabling each one to see if the issue subsides ?

  • The last plugins we installed is the dice plugin, Iframely, and twitter, to be tested…

    Because the others are quite well known and I never noticed this bug with them, but I could be wrong.

    @DownPW Hmm. You could use a simple jQuery function to replace that icon with the right one. Just seems a bit “overkill” but might be necessary

    why not, if you can write this query I’m not saying no, just to test

    @DownPW might be a bit greedy, but try this

    $(document).ready(function() {
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $(this).find($(".fa")).removeClass('fa-nbb-none').addClass('fa-commenting-o');
        });
    });

    JS code seems not working but…

    I see on ACP, the image of category is uploaded to imgur :

    7ca2e670-4928-43d9-b1fd-530fae97c72a-image.png

    and I see this on dev console :

    b2321b44-7a73-4510-97b2-57fa73a096c9-image.png

    The url seems to not be encoded correctly, I don’t know why ???

    If I change manually the URL in the dev console, it’s OK:

    e7b51ef6-6b5f-48a7-9ed0-4d7e27d299fe-image.png

    Yes, that certainly seems the case. I think you need to take this issue up with the plugin developer.

  • @phenomlab

    the trick is to know which plugin is in question!!

    @crazycells it is, yes - I think I’ll leave it as there is no specific PWA CSS classes I know of. Well, you could use something like the below, but this means multiple CSS files for different operating systems. /** * Determine the mobile operating system. * This function returns one of 'iOS', 'Android', 'Windows Phone', or 'unknown'. * * @returns {String} */ function getMobileOperatingSystem() { var userAgent = navigator.userAgent || navigator.vendor || window.opera; // Windows Phone must come first because its UA also contains "Android" if (/windows phone/i.test(userAgent)) { return "Windows Phone"; } if (/android/i.test(userAgent)) { return "Android"; } if (/iPad|iPhone|iPod/.test(userAgent) && !window.MSStream) { return "iOS"; } return "unknown"; // return “Android” - one should either handle the unknown or fallback to a specific platform, let’s say Android } Once you’re in that rabbit hole, it’s impossible to get out of it.

    @mventures Yes, exactly. The other icon will restart NodeBB whilst the first icon I referenced will rebuild (recompile) it. The huge strength of NodeBB over Flarum (for example) is that the code is precompiled, and called once at boot. PHP’s code has to repeatedly reload code from source making it much slower.

    @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.
