Solved Customisation

  • Hi Mark

    Could you please share with me codes which are changing to up vote, down vote icons to heart and down finger? Also when it voted the icon should be red color as my v2 version.

  • @cagatay Try this CSS

    [component="post"] .fa-chevron-down::before {
        content: "\f0a7";
    }
    [component="post"] .fa-quote-right::before {
        content: "\f004";
    }
    

    This will change the icons. However, changing the colour when an upvote is received will require custom code. We never did this on v2 of your forum (from memory - I could be wrong) - it was for the bookmarks.

    @phenomlab said in NodeBB v3 Vote Icon:

    [component=“post”] .fa-chevron-down::before {
    content: “\f0a7”;
    }
    [component=“post”] .fa-quote-right::before {
    content: “\f004”;
    }

    Code should be;

    [component="post"] .fa-chevron-down::before {
        content: "\f0a7";
    }
    [component="post"] .fa-chevron-up::before {
        content: "\f004";
    }

    @phenomlab i saved those codes from v2;

    span.tag:before {
        content: "\f02c";
        font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Free";
        margin-right: 3px;
        margin-left: 2px;
        font-weight: 600;
    	font-size: 9px;
    	vertical-align: 0;
    }
    .fa-chevron-up:before {
        font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 Free';
    
            color: red; 
        }
     }
     
    span.votes {
        .fa-chevron-down:before {
            content: "\f165";
            font-weight: 400;
        }
        .downvoted .fa-chevron-down:before {
            content: "\f165";
            font-weight: 900;
            color: red; 
        }
     }
    .fa-chevron-down:before  {
        font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 Free';
    	font-weight: 300;
    	font-size: 16px;
    	content: '\f165';
    	margin-right: 4px;
    	vertical-align: -1px;
    	color: red;
    }
    
    span.votes {
        .fa-chevron-up:before {
            content: "\f004";
            font-weight: 400;
        }
        .upvoted .fa-chevron-up:before {
            content: "\f004";
            font-weight: 900;

  • Yes, sorry - you’re right. The problem is that the icons are hidden unless you hover over them in each post, so difficult to target. If you add color: red; to each of those classes, they will be in red regardless of voting state (for example, will trigger even if there are no votes) and I’m pretty sure that isn’t what you want?

    @phenomlab forget it, look likes good with your codes.

    @cagatay You’d target the body tag and use the below line of CSS background: url(/assets/customcss/backgrounds/default/default.png) no-repeat center center fixed; Obviously, you need to change the path to suit where your image is being stored.

    @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.
