Switch between list and card view function

[DownPW]

no problem,

I noticed that as soon as I make changes to the CSS file, I have to empty the cache and close the browser so that the changes are taken into account even in incognito mode.

@DownPW Yes, I have a fix for that also going forward. Will supply that once I’m done with testing.

No worries my friend :), I’m just making the comments to make this code concrete because I find it excellent.

Now that I have seen that I have to close the browser each time I make a change, this seems OK to me except for the last 2 points mentioned which you are currently working on.

Because you cannot fit 32% into 100% even with simple math It needs either padding or margin - both of which will be negative, but I’ve done it here

@DownPW thanks. I have an almost stable vanilla harmony version I’ll be posting this weekend.

[phenomlab]

Here’s a stable version based on stock Harmony

Note that there are a lot of changes here, so if you have previously deployed this code, you need to update it. Also note that the CSS is based on stock harmony - if you have any customised theme, you’ll need to add this yourself (obviously, I cannot possibly factor in custom styles).

If you have a pinned topic with the pinned label, the line is visible behind the label

I decided to leave this as is. It’s transparent in the stock harmony CSS, so if you want to change it to suit your needs, then feel free. The categories and tags have been moved to the right anyway in this modified version of code, therefore, the “bug” (it’s not really, but…) is no longer present.

[DownPW]

Great

I put the code on prod.
I see this bug on a few topics but impossible to know why

[phenomlab]

@DownPW does it resolve itself if you click the home button again? I’ve seen this in dev but can’t reproduce it in prod.

nope, the bug persist.

it seem problem with .category-card .lastpost a img but what’s strange is that it doesn’t do it for all topics

[phenomlab]

@DownPW yes, it seems to be an issue with the ajax callback but not sure where currently it originates from.

Does it happen on page load also?

can you be more specific?

If I refresh the page while keeping Card View activated it’s the same.
Same if I deactivate/reactivate Card View

Here, we see, we have not .category-card .lastpost a img add to class

[phenomlab]

@DownPW the class you’re referring to in the screenshot isn’t supposed to be applied to that specific element, as there is no img to be applied against.

What I meant about the ajax callback is that not all of the styles seem to be applied. It’s almost as though they are being added to the DOM when they aren’t loaded yet.

[DownPW]

Arf Ok sorry.
For information, I have the same things on my test server (actually, it’s a clone of prod) if you want to see in details or play

[phenomlab]

@DownPW thanks. The really odd thing here is that I can’t reproduce this issue at all in prod - where I developed it originally in fact.

I think I’m missing something somewhere, but unsure as to where it is currently.

[DownPW]

no problem dude. I’m not sure I’ll be much help on this one.

[phenomlab]

@DownPW no problems. Your review and findings are a great help already.

[phenomlab]

@DownPW I found the bug. It’s CloudFlare

Setting the cache to bypass resolves the issue. This explains why I cannot replicate it in PROD (for me) as I only use CF for DNS resolution.

I have modified the CSS file slightly also, so you’ll need to pick up the latest code.

https://github.com/phenomlab/harmony-card-view/blob/main/card.css

Not entirely sure why CF seems to think this file never changes - it’s different on each page load and suffixed with a random string! The setting in CF should also respect that - but doesn’t. So much for that

[DownPW]

Ok @phenomlab Thanks to you for find the solution for this problem

so what is the good parameters in CF for this script ?
Maybe include this on your github ?

[phenomlab]

@DownPW yes, absolutely, although I’m not entirely sure why CF behaves in this manner as in most cases, a present query string that changes frequently (on each page load) should not present itself as an issue.

Still checking.

[DownPW]

It’s a shame to do without the CF cache in my opinion.

Do you just have to activate development mode in CF?
