Vivaldi Forum mod

@ybjrepnfr Remaining on topic is no problem. Perhaps we could introduce code in the mod to compare a written post with the topic title, estimating its OTness. Then everyone needs a gadget. Before writing a post you stick your toe in that gadget. Imagine the rest.

See how I brought us back on topic? My toes are safe.

How it is disciplined remains an open discussion

yes, during drafting i did pause & ponder if anyone might choose to take this conversation into certain unintended directions, but then i recalled the exemplary calibre of all the people here, & concluded there was no risk, as nobody would even think of that, shirley!

Hey, then you don't even have to purchase them!
Just spend an hour or so browsing market shelves

They've broken it again

@sjudenim Yes, the changes are quite substantial. This will take some time.

@luetage Since the last forum update, the numbers in the vertical pager (CSS) are no longer centered, but squeezed to the left edge. What would be the update of the corresponding css code?

@luetage

Why this sentence: "Is it possible to search within some particular threads (topics) only?" that use ">" ?:

https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/32614/using-the-forum-search/11

Is not visible here:

@Dancer18 This is not part of the forum mod.

Dancer18

@luetage Yes, I also assumed that, however, I have the css-code soo long that I no longer know where in the forum the original is shown, and whether there is an update.
Do you have a link for me?

@luetage Thank you very much! I was able to use the developer tools to find out where I had to change something.

In the Forum exist this code related to the selector ".lastpost":

.categories>li .lastpost .post-content blockquote,
.category>ul>li .lastpost .post-content blockquote

{display: none;}

That is, the blockquote is not shown in the lastpost.

"@TBV said in Automated input from other apps no longer works"

Considering that the 2 scarce lines in the lastpost are lost in nothing useful, the question then is: If the blockquote is not displayed, what is the point of displaying the sentence above?

Remove it with this code:

.post-content:has(blockquote) > p:nth-of-type(1):has([href*="post"])

{display: none;}

Then more of the text of the person posting appears:

If one wants to go a little further and avoid opening so many tabs, then the solution is to increase the number of lines displayed in the lastpost; and with this, read in most cases the entire post without having to open a new tab.

Use this simple code:

.lastpost.background-link-container

{width: 350px !important;
height: 130px !important;}


.post-content

{width: 345px !important;
height: 125px !important;
font-weight: 400  !important;
text-align: justify !important;
line-height: 14px !important;}

are the five "pink ellipsed" tools broken as a direct result of the damage done to vfm by the recent biggish forum software upgrade, or merely coz pisces is in ascension over sagittarius, with aquarius in peri-rotation?

luetage

@ybjrepnfr Nomadic already fixed that. I’m behind with the CSS cleanup.

ybjrepnfr

@luetage docking half your vivaldi salary until you pull your socks up.

is @nomadic 's magic something that a dweeb like me can use now, or should i just patiently await your next vfm release pls?

nomadic

@ybjrepnfr @luetage created a new branch of the repo to contain the changes for the update. You can find it here: https://github.com/luetage/vivaldi_forum_mod/tree/5.1

Download the ZIP from the green Code button, unZIP it, and load the folder as unpacked from the vivaldi://extensions/ page in Developer mode.

Sorry if all the talk of branches and trees got you all excited...
