After upgrade to nodebb v1.14.0 my recent cards don't show the category image as background.

Thanks for reporting, this is fixed in the latest version of nodebb-plugin-recent-cards.

My version is now 1.0.13 but it don't work.

Looks like there was another bug in core that needed fixing for the images to show.

How come it won't show the category images only colours?

I have uploaded images for my categories but only see the colours I have set?

@baris is this the same issue as above? - thanks

@anodetobb

[AnOdeToBB]

apologies for being pushy, is there any reason why this is happening?

Thanks

[baris]

Plugin needs updating to use category images if available. Right now it only uses color/icon.

[AnOdeToBB]

@baris Thanks for getting back.

So this can be done?

[baris]

Yes it can be done

[AnOdeToBB]

@baris That's great, so it just needs updating by yourself?

[baris]

I don't have time but anyone can do it and send a PR.

[AnOdeToBB]

@baris Thanks

[AnOdeToBB]

@baris realistically how easy is this to do?

[baris]

It was fairly simple I added this in 2.0.8,

@phenomlab yeah this commit broke it https://github.com/NodeBB-Community/nodebb-plugin-recent-cards/commit/ff3722e475a716116b827085aeaccad2a0c303c1 because of a missing async on renderExternal @baris
