Threaded post support for NodeBB

Let's Build It

  • Very cool like as already said above and a big thanks for hard work (I see the th function.js and woowwww 🙂 )

    I test it now and I have see this with plugin user-browsers :

    Do you know where it could come from?

    This also breaks the display of the site title

    Can we do the same thing but without expanding the topic toolbar on header ?


    EDIT :

    I see that you seem put other things in the function.js on github like banner, logo, fancybox… 🙂
    I said to myself that I found this file way too long without asking too many questions !

    –> But I have the bug display with user browsers plugin which I will try to solve

    @DownPW hmm. Not sure why I copied all of that code, but will change asap. I also have a fix for the browsing users plugin issue but didn’t include it because others might not be using it.

    I’ll get to this as soon as I can.

    EDIT - Done
    EDIT 2 - I just noticed on your DEV box that you have (thanks to me - sorry) a ton of JS code you don’t need. You should probably clean that up.

    Yes, but then you’ll have elements that are wider than the sticky bar which looks odd on scroll.

    Yes, just fixed it in your dev environment. I assumed (probably incorrectly) that people may not have this installed, so omitted it. I fixed it in prod because I do have it there, but wanted to keep DEV as vanilla as possible.

    I’ll need to write a function that checks for the existence of this plugin then determines where to inject the toggle switch

    For now, see the below

    $('.topic .sticky-tools ul .hidden-xs').append(threadView);
                    // If you have browsing users plugin, comment out the above line and uncomment the one below
                    //$('.topic .sticky-tools ul [component="topic/browsing-users"]:last-of-type').append(threadView);
    

    Result (might need some position tweaking…)

    Test asap, i’m on intervention AT work

    no I need it 😉

    Yes, but then you’ll have elements that are wider than the sticky bar which looks odd on scroll.

    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 ?

    Great idea. I’ll add that.

  • maybe with an HTML SPAN class like this ?

    <span class="title-tooltip top" tooltip-text="Thread View On">
    
  • 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.

  • 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.

    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) {

    @eveh Welcome board The code you are referring to is custom written as no such functionality exists under NodeBB. However, adding the functionality is relatively trivial. Below are the required steps Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-header Add the below code to your header, and save once completed <ol id="mainbanner" class="breadcrumb"><li id="addtext">Your Title Goes Here</li></ol> Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-js and add the below code, then save $(document).ready(function() { $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) { // Initialise mainbanner ID, but hide it from view $('#mainbanner').hide(); var pathname = window.location.pathname; if (pathname === "/") { $("#addtext").text("Your Title"); $('#mainbanner').show(); } else {} // If we want to add a title to a sub page, uncomment the below and adjust accordingly //if (pathname === "/yourpath") { //$("#addtext").text("Your Title"); //$('#mainbanner').show(); //} }); }); Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-css and add the below CSS block .breadcrumb { right: 0; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; background: #0086c4; color: #ffffff; width: 100vw; position: relative; margin-left: -50vw; left: 50%; top: 50px; position: fixed; z-index: 1020; } Note, that you will need to adjust your CSS code to suit your own site / requirements.

    @baris said: You should change your selectors so it doesn’t look at the entire document. You probably only want to apply fancybox to stuff inside the #content element which is what changes when the user navigates around the page. So use $('#content a').... for your selectors then the forum logo in the header won’t be selected. I modified the JS Fancybox code now and this code and it seem better // --------------------------------------------- // Fancybox Media Reader (Without Website Logo) // --------------------------------------------- if (top.location.pathname !== '/login') { $(window).on('action:posts.loaded', function(data) { console.log("Polling DOM for lazyLoaded images to apply Fancybox"); $(document).ready(function() { $('#content a').not('.forum-logo').not(".avatar").not(".emoji").not(".bmac-noanimate").each(function() { $('#content a[href*=".jpg"], #content a[href*=".jpeg"], #content a[href*=".png"], #content a[href*=".gif"], #content a[href*=".webp"]').addClass("noanimate"); }); }); }); } if (top.location.pathname !== '/login') { $(document).ready(function() { $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) { $('#content a').not('.logo').not(".avatar").not(".emoji").not(".bmac-noanimate").each(function() { $('#content a[href*=".jpg"], #content a[href*=".jpeg"], #content a[href*=".png"], #content a[href*=".gif"], #content a[href*=".webp"]').addClass("noanimate"); data.preventDefault() // Strip out the images contained inside blockquotes as this looks nasty :) $('#content blockquote img').remove(); }); Fancybox.bind( '#content a[href*=".jpg"], #content a[href*=".jpeg"], #content a[href*=".png"], #content a[href*=".gif"], #content a[href*=".webp"]', { groupAll: true, } ); }); }); } // Chat fancybox - fires when chat module loaded and AJAX calls new chat $(document).ready(function() { $(window).on('action:chat.loaded', function(data) { // >>> Se limiter au contenu principal uniquement <<< $('#content img').not('.forum-logo').not(".avatar").not(".emoji").not(".bmac-noanimate").each(function() { var newHref = $(this).attr("src"); $(this).wrap("<a class='fancybox' href='" + newHref + "'/>"); $('#content a[href*=".jpg"], #content a[href*=".jpeg"], #content a[href*=".png"], #content a[href*=".gif"], #content a[href*=".webp"]').addClass("noanimate"); data.preventDefault(); // Strip out the images contained inside blockquotes as this looks nasty :) $('#content blockquote img').remove(); }); Fancybox.bind( '#content a[href*=".jpg"], #content a[href*=".jpeg"], #content a[href*=".png"], #content a[href*=".gif"], #content a[href*=".webp"]', { groupAll: true, } ); }); }); For the logo, I must use overflow: visible !important; on [component="brand/logo"] /* --- Logo --- */ [component="brand/logo"] { max-height: 50px; width: auto; height: auto; max-width: 100%; display: block; object-fit: contain; object-position: left center; overflow: visible !important; } Better result !!
