  • @crazycells it’s possible, but would be very complex. Much less hassle to use either a direct image (which probably won’t look very good on scale) or use this SVG from Font Awesome which appears to be free 👍

    @phenomlab thanks.

    @phenomlab since both admin and global moderator badges are close to purple/maroon color, you can change one to green (which I believe was the verified badge color)

    @crazycells yes, I need to change that here. Was switched out on a whim.

    @crazycells @DownPW something of a “fresher” approach. Have a look at the below

    5602e864-6de6-4a09-9dd1-eb33b2807774-image.png

    Using the messenger type view I created, it then becomes possible to place the “verified” group according to the style from the same view.

    This does mean some new CSS

    .self-post a[href*="/groups/verified"] .group-label {
        position: absolute !important;
        right: 51px;
        top: 44px;
    }
    .topic-response-post a[href*="/groups/verified"] .group-label {
        position: absolute !important;
        left: 20px;
        top: 44px;
    }
    .topic-response-post i[component="user/status"] {
        position: absolute;
        left: -1px;
    }
    

    And, more importantly, I found a more efficient way of adding classes in the messenger view js. The revised code is below

    // Target those elements already loaded in the DOM
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $('li[component="post"]').each(function(i, obj) {
                if (!$(this).hasClass('self-post') || (!$(this).hasClass('self-post'))) {
                    console.log("Adding required classes for messenger type view");
                    $(this).addClass('topic-response-post');
                }
    
            });
        });
    });
    // Target elements dynamically added to the DOM on post load
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.loaded', function(data) {
            $('li[component="post"]').each(function(i, obj) {
                if (!$(this).hasClass('self-post') || (!$(this).hasClass('self-post'))) {
                    console.log("Adding required classes for messenger type view");
                    $(this).addClass('topic-response-post');
                }
    
            });
        });
    });

    @phenomlab this looks cooler than usual badges 👍 thanks for the codes…

    but, I believe it should be located slightly lower since there is already a status circle that is taking some space from the avatar, and now this is taking more 🙂 it feels like you are conversing with someone that has sunglasses, a scarf, and a hat 😄 I prefer to see their faces more clearly (well, in this case avatar 😄 )

    @crazycells ha! Yes, I see your point. I guess it’s down to taste, and thanks to the absolute positioning, you can easily customise to suit taste.

    It’s also worth noting that on here at least, this will only trigger on larger monitors - it would look awful on mobile devices in my view.

    How do you achieve the restriction? I cannot see any screen resolution definition…

    hi @phenomlab , in this topic where the solution is chosen:

    verified badge and online status are overlapping. I guess it is not intended?

    @crazycells ah, yes, I know why. There’s a class I haven’t committed.

    Thanks. I’ll sort that out tomorrow.

  • @crazycells Let’s try this

    In /forum/admin/manage/groups/verified, remove the highlighted section

    1c9e1406-d641-4e6c-8a03-e452c9462768-image.png

    We are then left with no text, but a clearer looking icon

    149c24c4-c95c-4a6e-8dc4-52340e4d0bed-image.png

    Now remove the previous CSS blocks I provided here

    Add replacement CSS

    .post-header a[href*="/forum/groups/verified"] {
        margin-right: 3px;
        margin-top: 1px;
        border-radius: 50%;
        line-height: 20px;
        display: inline-block;
        vertical-align: middle;
        text-align: center;
        overflow: hidden;
    }
    small.label.group-label.inline-block i {
        margin-top: 1px;
        margin-left: 0px;
        vertical-align: middle;
        justify-content: center;
        display: flex;
    }
    .post-header a[href*="/forum/groups/verified"] .group-label {
        min-width: 20px;
        display: flex;
        justify-content: center;
    }
    .group-label {
        vertical-align: -6px;
    }
    
    

    You should land up with something like this

    16a50d49-f765-46c9-a480-344a592baf13-image.png

    As you can see, this forces the stars out of alignment, but I don’t think this is too much of a sacrifice, and could be remediated with additional targeted CSS if need be.

    Essentially, because NodeBB doesn’t provide an id field (which would be a lot easier), we have to use wildcard CSS such as .post-header a[href*="/forum/groups/verified"] but make it targeted in the sense that it will only fire if it is part of the post stream, hence .post-header at the beginning.

    We then use .post-header a[href*="/forum/groups/verified"] .group-label to target the actual label (but only when we have a wildcard match in the CSS) meaning we can set a minimum width so that the circle doesn’t look quashed (we need to validate this on Firefox though as additional CSS might be required due to how the webkit engine will render this in contrast to mozilla).

    Finally, we use .group-label to force alignment in terms of height to prevent it wandering out of the inline-block.

    This is already active on your forum, so nothing for you to do but (hopefully) admire 🙂

    Let me know.

                }
    
            });
        });
    });
    

    My style looks like it with those codes. There isjust seems some blue color of my checked icon 🙂

    @eeeee said in restarting nodebb on boot: can I just run nodebb under nodemon for auto restarts? It’s a better method. Nodemon just looks for file system changes and would effectively die if the server was rebooted meaning you’d have to start it again anyway. Systemd is the defacto standard which is how the operating system interacts in terms of services, scheduled tasks etc.

    @pobojmoks that’s easily done by modifying the code provided here so that it targets background rather than border In essence, the below should work $(document).ready(function() { $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) { $('.recent-card-container').each(function(i) { var dataId = $(this).attr("data-cid"); var color = $('[role="presentation"]', this).css("background-color"); console.log("data-cid " + dataId + " is " + color); $('[data-cid="' + dataId + '"] .recent-card').attr("style", "background-color: " + color); }); }); });

Is this something new that’s been implemented? I’ll 100% be doing that when I’m on the laptop over the weekend.
