Feature Requests

The Persona and Harmony themes support a feature where previews and links to all replies to a given post are accessible in the post itself, in a dropdown element. Will this by chance be available in the Lavender and Peace themes as well? This is what the feature looks like:

I don't know how long NodeBB has had it, but it is a very cool feature. It's something I've always hoped for in discussion forums.

Thanks

@julian I'll chime in here too and say the current setup of the thumbnail over on the side instead of replacing the avatar (like it did in persona) makes harmony unusable for our forum.

Second to this, but actually primary to everything, if truly embracing "columns" a la Harmony.

Then we all should be thinking about breaking out features into the column area especially for composer.

Then alternatively, you can have a feature like tags vertically display in the left column in line with the composer edge, what I'm talking about here would be better considered as Composer-columns that overlay (if that technically makes it easier or is more efficient).

Bring/Give columns to composer. Space for breaking out features.

IMHO this is a more correct justification for column layouts, to provision for many cool secondary features even for other aspects of NodeBB (again widget in the main columns, is in line with this thinking too) that enhance posting beyond what is typically found in forum platform software.

Give composer wings! 💸

@julian yes, exactly.

@julian I think we've got it working albeit without the splitting out of objects to multiple collections. I think we'll probably tackle that as well, fortunately it should be relatively straight forward since the keys are already prefixed with a logical collection name e.g "post:1380" or "user:100".
In the meantime we have some testing ahead of us to ensure that nothing breaks.
We're happy to maintain it ourselves, but I think you guys should consider adding it as a core database. It gets NodeBB one step closer to being the first true "cloud native" forum platform. The only thing left would be splitting the UI from the API services and you would be all the way there.

@julian Does not work. I checked it when he wrote it, but I forgot to reply. 😐

@chez yes, I think I understand what you mean. I think it might be ok to continue without a warning even if the post is old.

@chung-leong said in SQLite Integration:

To emulate certain operations on sorted sets, I ended up just pulling the fully data set and processing it in JavaScript.

Yes, this is what I was afraid of... there are certain concessions that need to be made for an SQL driver when you build your software around the expectation of a schema-less data store 😆

Nevertheless, I am looking forward to reviewing.

@baris @julian Thats great!

This will be possible in 3.x by using {loggedInUser.uid} in the html widget.

How can I implement a function that some content is visible only when users logined and replied to this post?
The env is that some users uploads files but just want the one who replied to see,not every user or even verified user,but reply to this post .This is important in some scene.

@JaredBusch reach out to us at [email protected] maybe we can come to an agreement 😄

@julian hi,how can I install this on my home screen?In my mobile ,I can only open this forum by browser.

ok thanks @julian

got it. Just had to remove the hidden-xs and adjust some css. Now I got the last replied (user + timestamp) below the thread title. that's enough for now 🙂
