Vivaldi Forum mod

@luetage What would be nice for those that use the User CSS is the possibility to use :

.vfm_Tokyo_Night li.row.clearfix.category-item:hover

{outline: var(--colorCo) solid 3px !important; /* Code color */
filter: brightness(1.2) contrast(1.05) !important;}    

Is it possible?

@potmeklecbohdan I looked at this some time ago and thought about doing the whole thing in hsla when I redid the color calculations. But I noticed I didn’t really need transparency, other than for text where opacity can be set separately.

[luetage]

@barbudo2005 Yes, if you don’t have vfm-standard active you can use the color variables. They are visible in the elements/styles tab in developer tools. There you will find the calculated colors too, it’s 20 variables overall.

As VFM was revamped, it would be nice to have a separate thread for usercss mods. They are easy to lose here mixed with the extension itself feedback ^^

@luetage I meant them just for the user CSS – see, @barbudo2005 and @hlehyaric are both using transparency, & for semi-transparent elements opacity doesn’t really work.

[luetage]

@hadden89 This would get confusing in a separate topic too, because at some point it will be filled with outdated mods and support questions. It’s the same situation as with Vivaldi Modding, separate topics would have to be created for each modification. We could collect both themes and modifications as links from the original post. Don’t know.

One thing that I’ve been putting off – why are you using non-generic fonts? I want just sans-serif, that’s why I’ve spent time configuring a lot of things to use it.

[luetage]

@potmeklecbohdan You mean on the options page? It’s the same string as on the forum to keep it consistent, but this could be changed to just sans-serif of course. Personally I tackle this with font substitutions on linux. You can edit your local.conf file in etc/fonts and start substituting generic fonts like, Helvetica/Neue, Georgia, Verdana, Times New Roman, etc. with nice open source substitutions from your own font collection. For example I substitute all fonts in the common string Menlo,Monaco,Consolas,"Courier New" with Fira Mono, to have a nice monospaced font everywhere on the web (as long as webfonts aren’t being used, in which case they hopefully use something decent).

Yes.

Damn web designers. But since you have a reason for it, keep it.

Thanks for reminding me of that

Thanks!

@juanvase As long as there’s so little, there’s no need to act on it. As said, as a first step I could collect all shared themes in the original post and link to posts with dedicated modifications too. Should this go overboard with dozens of modifications we can start to think about alternatives. But be aware that anything not posted in this topic will have far less reach and might be overlooked easily. It’s not that simple.

@shifte said in Vivaldi Forum mod:

Translation, "Land of the Rising Sun" is better than "Tokyo Night".

Most of the themes I adapted for Vivaldi Forum are existing colorschemes for Vim, namely Rigel, PaperColor Light and Dark, Tokyo Night, Solarized Light and Dracula. I kept the naming to hint at the origin. Should you be interested, feel free to translate the extension to Japanese. Instructions on how to do this are available in the README ^^

@luetage
Thanks for your kindness.
I see, I will create _locales/ja/messages.json. ^^

@luetage
Thanks for the update.

[ch3f]

so I updated to 3.0, still have my css but my custom themes are gone. Where are they stored on MacOS?

[nomadic]

@luetage Finally got around to using this extension. Thanks for your work (and everyone else that contributed)!

I have just made a pull request to potentially improve the Advanced Formatting Mod. It isn't finished yet, but I was wondering if you [Edit: and @LonM] could check it out to see if you agree with the changes.

[luetage]

@ch3f The basic color variables changed. There is no more Link 2, since Vivaldi dropped it. The former Button color is called Code now and strictly a foreground color; and the Accent color is newly introduced. I said before I was sorry that I had to completely break compatibility with old versions, but I think it was for the better. If you neither made backups of your themes with the export feature, nor have a backup of the 2.4 version somewhere (Timemachine?), I’m afraid the themes are gone.

[luetage]

@nomadic Advanced Formatting is a modification by @LonM, I’d rather let him check this.

[ch3f]

@luetage I have time machine and I can restore 2.4 but..ohh so I realistically I have to start from scratch...crap thats a lot of work..wouldnt have upgraded had this would happen.

@guigirl If you didn’t levitate an apple and recite Vivaldi’s privacy policy backwards while doing so, that don’t impress me much.
