[nodebb-plugin-custom-pages] Custom Static pages for NodeBB

vivek tailor

i want to remove custom-pages links from main menu

a_5mith

@vivek-tailor Try adding this to the custom class...

" style="display:none;

Copy it as is, including the first " etc.

@a_5mith thanks

psychobunny

Nice trick

Once this issue is resolved you'll be able to remove / rearrange menu items without having to use the above

@psychobunny Is it still not possible to add an image to the link?

Tanner

Even adding a FontAwesome icon would suffice for the time being if that's not possible.

Tanner

@psychobunny is it at all possible to add a "hide to anonymous users" or "make page private" option to the static pages? I realize that you can do this with each individual widget but it would be much more expedient if it were implemented in the ACP section of this plugin.

Tanner

@psychobunny you might not be managing this plugin anymore, but I'm running into an issue where the widgets don't load on the custom pages, even after clearing cache and stuff. Anything you'd be able to do to help me out?

@Scuzz said:

Is there any way to use an icon instead of just text?

Better late than never:

 $('document').ready(function() {
    $( "li.policy-page>a>span" ).replaceWith( '<i class="fa fa-fw fa-gavel"></i>' );
 });

Just replace policy-page with the class of your new page, and fa-gavel with the icon you want it replaced with.

Hmm... The plugin didn't run on NodeBB 0.5.4

Produces this error:

@markkus, you're running the 0.6.0 supported version of the plugin. Run the following one line at a time from your NodeBB folder.

npm rm nodebb-plugin-custom-pages
npm i [email protected]

Then go into your Plugins in the ACP, disable the custom-pages plugin, then re-enable it. Then restart/reload your forum.

markkus

Oh lol... Thanks!

Anyone else having CSRF issues with this plugin on 0.6.0?

? Offline

It looks like the CSRF issue was in core, not within the plugin itself.

RazorAxis

Can I ask, what is a custom static page? Is it a page without the forum?

a_5mith

@RazorAxis it creates new pages like /about or /welcome that allow you to add your own html to that page. So pretty much what you said, yes.

RazorAxis

@a_5mith, could you provide me with a site that uses this as an example so I can see how it looks. This is something I could use actually. Where is the link to the page? Same as a catagory? Thank you.

This post is deleted!

a_5mith

@Ted Worth noting that it usually only uses text, the icons are done using a Javascript tweak that you can find further up posted by me.

RazorAxis

@Ted Thanks! That is pretty neat you can add it there like that. You could then use that as a sign up area for premium membership, or blogs, or really anything I guess
