  • @DownPW odd indeed. Can you send me the CSS you are using for this ?

    .categories > li, .category > ul > li {
        border: 1px solid silver;
        border-radius: 4px;
        margin-top: 5px;
        background: black;
        opacity: 0.9;
    }

    @DownPW is there a URL where I can check this ? Might not be this evening, but definitely tomorrow am.

    @DownPW Try this

    @media (max-width: 768px) {
    .slideout-panel {
        margin-right: 1px;
    }
    }
    

    The issue here is how other mobile browsers interpret the padding on the slideout panel, so we need to “patch” it so that those browsers can use the forced margin instead.

    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?

    @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

    bf8b00ba-a92e-4475-afc1-a6f7e7184373-image.png

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

  • wrote on last edited by

    I will test without css, js, header and it’s the same 😞

    @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’ll need to define this in the body tag (or another element if you want greater or more granular targets) - for example body { font-family: "Poppins"; font-size: 16px; } Essentially, you use the font-size CSS directive.

    @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.
