    @jac @DownPW here’s the function I put together than will need to be added into your Custom JS

    $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function (data) {
    function updateUsername() {
        $('.getUsername .username').text(app.user.username);
    }
    if (document.readyState === 'loading') {
        document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', updateUsername);
    } else {
        updateUsername();
    }
    var thehours = new Date().getHours();
	var themessage;
	var morning = ('Good morning');
	var afternoon = ('Good afternoon');
	var evening = ('Good evening');

	if (thehours >= 0 && thehours < 12) {
		themessage = morning; 

	} else if (thehours >= 12 && thehours < 17) {
		themessage = afternoon;

	} else if (thehours >= 17 && thehours < 24) {
		themessage = evening;
	}

	$('.getUsername').prepend(themessage);
});

    Then use a custom HTML widget with the below

    <!-- IF loggedIn -->
<div class="getUsername">, <a href="/me"><span class="username"></span></a></div>
<!-- ENDIF loggedIn -->

    @phenomlab No idea if this is for me or @DownPW but it is very clever indeed! does it show on mobile?

    The idea is fantastic Mark, is there a point where you think yes my ideas are used by others but having the same features across a few forums, does that bother you or would you say this is why you created Sudonix?

    What is your CSS for this @phenomlab ?
    I have small bug on Unread categorie for example with this code I wrote:

    .getUsername {
    float: right;
    font-family: 'Poppins';
    font-size: 1.6rem;
    line-height: 1.8;
    color: #898989;
    font-weight: 400;
}

    @downpw I use the below - essentially, using padding to overcome this

    .getUsername {
    padding-top: 20px;
    text-align: right;
}

    @phenomlab
    To hide only on mobile / tablet you can use max-width,
    For example:

    @media (max-width: 970px) {
     .getUsername {
   display: none;
}
}

    Hello,

    I have a question regarding a problem my user is experiencing with this Welcome message.
    This user is not in France.

    It’s 7:40 a.m. for him, so 1:40 a.m. in France, and the banner wishes me a “good afternoon.” I don’t know what time zone it thinks I’m in, but it’s wrong…

    And nodebb displays 11:40 p.m. on the right once posted, so GMT.
    Which isn’t the afternoon either.

    How does this script get the time? It looks like it’s getting the time from the client, meaning the computer or device of the person visiting your site.
    But it seems that in this specific case, the correct time isn’t being retrieved.

    How can I fix this?

    phenomlabundefined

    @DownPW the ‘js’ code for the banner takes the time from the client, so what it displays really depends on the regional settings for the operating system.

    I’ve not seen this issue myself but would like to see some examples of screenshots if possible.

    @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: 1679077966615-aeef638f-4188-489d-a9f2-f3a26dbca9d8-image.png] It will then work [image: 1679077992245-7fb38631-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

    @phenomlab Very very great Mark Thanks again, It’s perfect now ! –> I share my code that I modified. I’ve added French and English comments. If you see things to change Mark, don’t hesitate.

    @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.

In the case of Hostrisk, it’s set like the below [image: 1633427929198-7bf04183-f6e8-4d72-b0eb-c9a05c9cd24b-image.png] You can set the signature by using https://domain.com/user/theuser/edit Mamy thanks Mark, I’ll set this up later .
