I'm looking to include custom forms on my site so that users can post uniform data for certain categories.

What would be the best way to tackle this? Would I need to create an entire plugin for a new composer, just make a custom .tpl file, etc.?

Looking for any suggestions or help! Attached are a few mockups of the form from an older website-

@baris I had to update to 1.14.x to get access to getSortedSetMember. I didn't know that this method was new. Also, I had to use a different method for flat() since I'm on the older version of node locally.

Thank you once again for all your help!

Hi!

I want to alter the category listings, namely the links to each topic.
There I noticed that action:categories.loaded|loading both trigger on scrolling, only. Neither on the initial visit (when loading the first X topics) nor when pagination is used.

I am about to use an ajaxify hook and check for the url; just want to make sure that there's no other, maybe better way to do this, is there?
I wouldn't need any data, just to know the fact, that the user is in a category/topic listing.

edit:
Uhm; noones signature is showing in posts. Did I miss that before?

Thanks 🙂

@PitaJ I think I found a way, I use client-side on 'action:ajaxify.end': components.get('topic').append(html) where html is the parsed (by jQuery) element I want to show.

If there is a way to do that server side instead of client side, I would really appreciate if you let me know 😂

And also I don't really get how can I understand what every hook method takes as parameters, when I click on one of them in the hooks list on GitHub, it just show me a line of code, and I don't get what that line means (for example in filters:parse.post goes where there is an if statement, what that means?)

@waldhay yes, you're supposed to rebuild and restart after installing plugins or changing themes.
