[nodebb-theme-lavender] Lavender Theme for NodeBB

psychobunny

I've not actually used 42 before, but I imagine it would be a little bit of work... probably will have to modify everywhere that has purple

I can start you off though,

.panel-default > .panel-heading {
    border-color: #yourblue
}

.btn-primary:hover, .btn-primary:focus, .btn-primary:active, .btn-primary.active, .open .dropdown-toggle.btn-primary {
    background-color: #yourblue;
    border-color: #darkerblue;
}

a, a:hover, a:focus {
    color: #yourblue
}

That should take care of maybe 75% of the purples in Lavender

@StuartH possibly looking into a better way to handle styling than using plugin -42 (no offense @bentael :D)... shoving CSS modifying javascript nto the footer is really a hack anyway...

none taken. I don't use it for CSS changes really, but you can.

@StuartH, unrelated, are you using the latest 42 ?

StuartH

@bentael yes they upgraded me yesterday, I've put my html in for a server status viewer but its taking an age to appear still was not showing a good 3 hours after putting the code in, unfortunately the site is down atm so I can not check if it is now working.

julian

@StuartH We seem to be back up now (Y)

./nodebb upgrade didn't seem to pull in the latest -42.

bentael

let me know when it's back up, that's really weird. Can you run the server with NODE_ENV=development nodebb start so it won't use the minified JS - i have a feeling that the minification is either skipping the generated JS or happening ahead, or not not happening at all.

@julian can I add an option to force re-minifying on server start if needed?

Pablo Macaluso

Anything about my problem?

StuartH

@julian Am I good to try again with the 42 plugin?

are you full up to date? I was looking at the other thread and it sounds like you're not in 0.3.x

StuartH

How do I get the side to appear is it not part of the lavender theme?

julian

It should be... clear cache? Not sure if any plugins are altering the page structure.

Pablo Macaluso

@psychobunny I updated with "git pull" its ok?

julian

@Pablo-Macaluso Update procedure is git pull followed by ./nodebb upgrade.

Pablo Macaluso

./nodebb upgrade

@julian Still not works

When i put ./nodebb upgrade says:

capitansupositorio@foro:~/mynodebb$ ./nodebb upgrade
Welcome to NodeBB
Usage: ./nodebb {start|dev|watch|language}

start Start NodeBB in production mode
dev Start NodeBB in development mode
watch Start NodeBB in development mode and watch for changes
language Language settings

Hi,

I currently have this problem when using lavender

There are two categories that are overlapping each other. One is a private category that only a certain group can access and the other is a normal category. Also, with this theme, how come it hasnt changed to the way the category menu is like here? Am i supposed to add something else or change anything to make it work correctly?

julian

@Scuzz, are you using Shoutbox? I believe it overrides the template back to vanilla...

Scuzz

@julian Yes I am. So is this something for @Mr_Waffle to fix then?

Weird... it was working fine when I tested it a week ago. Will update and test again.

Don't think either this, category info masonry, or metro tiles plugin were ever compatible with Lavender - mainly because the code takes the home.tpl from vanilla and not lavender

Need to think of a more brilliant way to figure this out, but for the shoutbox specifically you might be able to just replace the motd directly or something (since you don't modify the rest of home.tpl)

Create the widget thing! I'll see if I can have a go at replacing the motd... Any tips on how I would go about that? Add a custom api route for home?

Edit:
Realised I could just change the meta.config.motd... Problem is that it's wrapped inside the motd though. I could take it out with the clientside JS but that's not very nice.
