Putting my site's header/navigation elements above NodeBB's?

[MattB]

@PitaJ okay great thanks! I'll try that. All I did was follow these steps:

e.g. If you want to modify topic.tpl, you would:

1. Copy the contents of nodebb-theme-persona/templates/topic.tpl
2. Create nodebb-theme-mytheme/templates
3. Create a new file nodebb-theme-mytheme/templates/topic.tpl with the contents of the original topic.tpl file
4. Make your changes as necessary.
5. ./nodebb build tpl && ./nodebb dev to rebuild and start NodeBB

@PitaJ nodebb-plugin-customize is working perfectly. Very easy to use. Thanks for your help.

I tried installing nodebb-plugin-customize which works fine, but on activating, when I try to edit a template, I just get the title, and then a blank page. Did I miss something ?

[PitaJ]

@phenomlab what version of the customize plugin do you have installed? Are there any errors in the browser console or the NodeBB logs when you visit that page? Also what version of NodeBB and what version of Node?

[phenomlab]

@pitaj I thought there was only one version of the plugin according to the GitHub page. I'm running v14.16.1 of NodeJS, and NodeBB version 1.16.2.

Nothing in the browser console either.

[PitaJ]

@phenomlab you want version 2.0.0 of the plugin, it should work

[phenomlab]

@pitaj Thanks. I'll try this.

[PitaJ]

Actually 2.0.0 may not work until 1.17.0 releases next week

[phenomlab]

@pitaj it does seem to work, but has some errors in the console
