Put this in your Custom Javascript in the ACP:
$(() => app.require('hooks').then((hooks) => { hooks.on('action:composer.enhanced', ({ postContainer }) => { postContainer.find('textarea.write').on('keydown', function (e) { if (e.key == 'Tab') { e.preventDefault(); var start = this.selectionStart; var end = this.selectionEnd; // set textarea value to: text before caret + tab + text after caret this.value = this.value.substring(0, start) + "\t" + this.value.substring(end); // put caret at right position again this.selectionStart = this.selectionEnd = start + 1; } }); }); }));Chat button in composer has nothing to do with chat

Hello all, still checking nodebb out.
In the composer there is a weird red and white "chat" button in the bottom right (speech bubble with three dots in it). This actually just sends back to the thread. Is that a bug, or is it normal and the icon completely fails to convey the meaning of the button? Can the icon be changed in the theme or the setting of nodeBB if I get a custom install?
-
I believe what you're referring to is meant to toggle the composer.
-
Ok, so it is "working as expected" from the developper's point of view, and "bug" from the user's because of the unrelated icon.
Is it possible to use an explicit text instead of a cryptic icon for the button without having to change nodeBB's code?
I was thinking of "SHOW THREAD" in the composer, and "SHOW REPLY" in the thread once the composer is hidden? -
Yeah I agree, I think the chat icon is definitely wrong. I think we should have a minimize button on the composer itself, and have the button only show up when the composer is minimized.
