@DownPW without JS we can add tooltips, like on sidebar.

Here is a finished example with <span class="title-tooltip top" tooltip-text="Home"></span> in a buttons and with custom style.

Hi guys!

Small fix in code for New Topic button and I added new button for the New Reply action.

OLD

<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn-ghost p-2" data-bs-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false"><i class="fa fa-2x fa-plus-square text-primary"></i></button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-end p-1" style="">
<li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(1);">Category #1</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(3);">Category #3</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(5);">Category #5</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(7);">Category #7</a></li>
</ul>
</div>

NEW

<button type="button" class="btn btn-light bg-transparent border-0 shadow-none text-primary dropdown-toggle" data-bs-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false"><span class="title-tooltip top" tooltip-text="New Topic"><i class="fa fa-lg fa-plus text-primary"></i></span></button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-end p-1">
<li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(1);">New topic in News</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(3);">New topic in FAQ</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(5);">New topic in Plugins</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(7);">New topic in Support</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newReply(7);">Reply in Support</a></li>
</ul>

app.newReply(7) - replace 7 to your topic id.

This button will open the editor window to create a response in the topic.

@brazzerstop This looks great! I developed something similar for @DownPW here which you might find interesting

@phenomlab
Which player do you use in your forum?
it doesn't responsive in phone design

phenomlab

@inspiring It's nodebb-plugin-ns-embed - I noticed this myself the other day, and will fix that ASAP

@phenomlab
Can you share with me when you fix the problem?

phenomlab

@inspiring It's "fixed" in terms of the video appearing on the screen correctly - it's just CSS

@media (max-width: 767px) {
    video {
        width: 100% !important;
    }
}

@brazzerstop

possible to select "no categories" by default on Create Topic Button no matter what page you are on?

brazzerstop

@DownPW Try this app.newTopic(); (remove number of category)

no matter what page you are on?

If you mean show "select category" on every category/topic page, I think no.

@brazzerstop said in [manual] Build a Dock Panel:

yep It's that what I mean, I have testing with category number 0 but don't working
