  • @jac That’s not as simple as it looks unfortunately. The text isn’t formatted as a single line so the artefact of that is the multiple three dots you can see. It’s possible to consolidate this into one line, but it can only be for that particular view meaning you need explicit CSS.

    Happy to have another look, but it’s a lot of work for very little (cosmetic) gain.

    Thanks for looking mate, I seem to remember it was possible last time but I can’t find a screenshot to show you unfortunately.

    No sweat mate, I just thought it would look a bit more professional and cleaner 👍🏻.

    @phenomlab is there any way to change the colour of the tags?

    IMG_20211007_221027.jpg

    Is there any way to have the tag background In blue, with white writing and the number to be in yellow? but to all be together?

    Many thanks 🤞🏻

    Apologies to keep throwing these into the mix.
    .if the requests get too much let me know. I just find little changes here and there.

    Itz probably a longshot anyway, but is there any way to change the link colour on the quotes to yellow?

    Many thanks 🤝

    Had another go at this. The best I’ve come up with is

    .recent-cards .recent-card-container .recent-card .recent-card-body {
        height: 143px;
        overflow: hidden;
        text-overflow: ellipsis;
        width: 200px;
        max-width: 200px;
        line-height: 1.2;
        white-space: nowrap;
    }
    

    Which looks like the below

    Yes. See CSS below

    .tag-item {
        border-radius: 4px 0px 0px 4px;
        vertical-align: middle;
        float: left;
        width: auto;
        background-color: #194F90;
        color: #ffffff;
        font-weight: 500;
        position: relative;
        padding: 8px 5px 4px 10px;
        height: 39px;
        padding-right: 10px;
    }
    .tag-topic-count.human-readable-number {
        float: left;
        width: auto;
        margin-top: 0px;
        background-color: #FFC557;
        color: #333;
        padding: 8px 4px 0px 4px;
        border: 0;
        text-align: center;
        min-width: 50px;
        border-radius: 0px 4px 4px 0px;
        height: 39px;

    @jac Yep. Admittedly, I’ve taken some of the theming from Sudonix, but I’m ok with that.

    Going to implement all of the above now…

    As for the footer widget I can’t remove the NodeBB text as I’m not on the laptop you, I’m happy to include phenomlab on there for all your efforts and continued help?

    Maybe something live Version 1 in the footer and then when a significant change is made the version number can be updated.

    I think it’s because the mentions colour is set to white, I’ll find the other colour and change 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.

    @riekmedia I’ve applied some new CSS to your site. Can you reload the page and try again ? For the record, this is what I added #footer { background: #2d343e; border-top: 4px solid #2d343e; font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 70px; padding: 80px 0 0; position: relative; clear: both; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 0; z-index: 1000; margin-left: -15px; margin-right: -338px; } The /categories page seems a bit messed up, so looking at that currently EDIT - issued some override CSS in the CATEGORIES widget <!--- CSS fix for overspill on /categories page - DO NOT DELETE --> <style> #footer { margin-right: -45px; } </style> That should resolve the /categories issue.

Not a problem Mark, I don’t wish for you to use all your spare time doing that, just do it when you can, no issues I know you’re busy doing other things but when you get a chance mate I’m happy for this to go ahead along with the RSS script.
