Hover Cards - nodebb-plugin-cards
-
For what it's worth, I'd rather we don't have cards in core. Plugin, though?
It goes against my personal best practices for user interface design in the sense that the cards appear on hover, which is far too easy to trigger accidentally, even with a delay... and if you introduce a delay, you don't want one that's too long, otherwise you inconvenience the end user (rock & hard place, anyone?)
I also prefer that hover actions have minimal effects (like highlighting table rows, etc.), precisely because it is not always an active user action. Large effects like opening a user card could potentially block content, and that's concerning for me.
... but not everybody shares my rather opinionated views on UX

Well, I personally find it hard to disagree with these points, as I've encountered all of these scenarios myself
However, it would be nice if the existing plugin could be forked and made to work with Harmony. -
I asked the question to @Schamper for compatibility with nodeBB 3.x and here is his answer :
