@tfraley you have local registration enabled I guess? That CSS fix is if you have local registration disabled

Subcategories may not be working too well.

Is there a way to make the category layout more even. It seems to come down to how many lines a description has and the post for that matter

I think that's a question related to the masonry. You're better off asking a style pro like an admin or a (proper) theme developer

Nice job tbh I wanted to make masonry more of a plugin extension for persona but I'm glad you did this, maybe you should call it nodebb-theme-personavender

I was looking for something like this. Thanks mate!

Looking good drew, Just moved the theme to my live nodebb.
Did a little tweaking (custom CSS) this is what I have so far.. Tweaking mostly for mobile.

Two questions

What the hell happened to the title post? It's been double HTML encoded?
With 133 downloads, are there seriously no github issues? Seems too good to be true.

+1

This way the topic title wouldn't sound like the persona theme is blocking anything

great work

chas

this is exactly what i've been looking for! love it thanks, Recent replies & this = perfect

is it not best to make this a plugin instead to modify the theme? then if persona updates we wont miss out on the changes

I believe its lines/description/title based. I noticed that when I changed skins the blocks would reformat to a more orderly set up. (I have 12 categories. On some skins I would have a row of 4 a row of 1 a row of 4 and a row of 3. On others I would have 3 rows of 4)

Only difference between skins is font, which can have natural size differences. If your blocks don't line up try and change your skin!

Thanks,

Actually just got things how I wanted not to long ago.
Basically, I made the category cards a hover and made them swap out the title/description with the latest post/preview.
