Introducing the NodeBB 0.7.0 Persona preview

psychobunny

Haha I'm kidding of course. But I do need a scapegoat for all this extra work I've been doing lately - might as well be the last poster in this thread

This is my first encounter with Nodebb, hoping to get a project with it off the ground soon. Persona made me chose Nodebb over the other offerings, as I love the look and feel of it!

One quick question though: how can I remove the huge jumbotron that's on the categories page (with the title "Welcome to the NodeBB Developer Community") without editing the template? I'd rather not edit the template and create potential conflicts with later git pulls. Or am I missing something very obvious?

@nikita easiest way is some custom less/css code (you can enter it somewhere within ACP) like this

nikita

@frissdiegurke thanks a lot, that worked!

psychobunny

@nikita Latest version as of yesterday btw has removed the hardcoded jumbotron, just FYI

While on the 0.7.0 noticed if you refresh page while in subcategory thread thingo the section title changes to back to 'CATEGORIES' while still in the section.
is this normal ? EDIT: ok no, doing it on this site

Menu doesn't work when window minimised on desktop (Firefox, Chrome & IE on Win7) or on mobile (safari on iOS). No response from clicking/pressing the "three lines" icon.

Some of the bootswatches can look a bit odd when applied to it but most work well enough.

Other than that, very nice indeed. I have it running on my forum: http://www.onlyanexcuse.com/

@Danny-McWilliams It is working fine for me on chrome, Windows 7. I only have seen some issues where the scroll seems to stop working, but haven't detected the cause yet. It could be related.

@José-Ángel-Rey-Liñares it's a fresh install (I had issues upgrading) so it may be something as simple as plugins conflicting. I'll turn them off and give it a try.

Yup, not showing elements on my WP8.1 hTC

@psychobunny Wide style persona with white backgrounds for use with image backgrounds etc.

css is a bit long, also have the user account page white bg's @ etc if you want the css

snowplum

the uploaded category icons disappeared after switching to persona

Danny McWilliams

As well as my own site, the menu doesn't work in a minimised window on desktop or mobile with this site either.

snowplum

The reply button on my site doesn't work after switching to Persona. It's very strange since it works here.

Actually, the New Topic and the Quote buttons don't work either. Same thing happened to the button in spoiler.

@snowplum what's your NodeBB version? this theme doesn't work with v0.6.

snowplum

I'm running NodeBB v0.7.0-dev.

Edit: I've run git pull and upgrade. All problems have been fixed. Thank you a lot.

I love how persona looks clean and nice but as others have said before, it would be great if we have an option to keep the old magazine-like homepage.

Hm.. something we missed on agiletesters is the lighter font color on a thread we already saw and there is nothing new on that..

psychobunny

It actually does exist, although I don't think we're happy with it - the colored bar on the right becomes grey if there's nothing new. Might revisit that one, doesn't seem way too obvious

EDIT: how about this?
