I've decided to switch my technology and security community to NodeBB. Absolutely love the blazing speed and maturity of this project. It's early stages, and some heavy customisation, but it's up at https://phenomlab.com

I'm an infrastructure and security expert by trade, so this feels like home.

@phenomlab Nice design! keep it up.

phenomlab

@fais3000 Thanks. Did you get light or dark mode out of curiosity ?

fais3000

@phenomlab Went with Light at the start but Dark looks better. BTW noticed (The white background behind topic-list-header looks odd)

@phenomlab How did you get custom Icons on your NodeBB? (As in not Font-Awesome)
Is there an easy way? I've wanted to have custom icons for a while!

PS: i have the same plugin for dark mode

phenomlab

@fais3000 Yeah, thanks. I'm going to force dark I think. The light mode isn't finished as I've focused mostly on the dark theme.

phenomlab

@dunlix I'm using FA Pro, but you could use any icon set. It's just a case of including the library and CSS (say for example, IcoMoon) then using the :before CSS class to set the value. I've not actually tried with IcoMoon, but there's no reason at all as to why this won't work.

dunlix

@phenomlab ok, i'll look into this

phenomlab

Actually, this plugin nodebb-plugin-force-dark-persona is supposed to force dark mode, but doesn't !

dunlix

@phenomlab if you use nodebb-plugin-night-mode
then the plugin you mentioned won't change it, they are two separate plugins and have nothing to do with each other. You could just make all of the custom css rules yourself and put them in CUstom CSS section of ACP, or find where the css from nodebb-plugin-night-mode is.

phenomlab

@dunlix That's a good point I know that the night mode plugin adds the CSS prefix of body.lights-out so for me it's just as simple to remove that class to force dark theme. Problem is that I have "day mode" classes defined, and would need to delete those otherwise I'll land up with duplicated CSS

dunlix

@phenomlab You could copy all of the CSS from the night mode plugin and put it in Custom CSS, then deactivate the plugin so in case you ever need it it's there, but its off. You'll prob need to edit the CSS a little since it mostly says stuff like body.lights-out, make it so it applies to the regular (light) state.

phenomlab

@dunlix interesting - if you remove the night mode plugin, and use the force dark persona, this works fine (slight difference in colour, but nothing that can't be changed easily)

dunlix

@phenomlab Ah, so the night mode plugin cancels it out. Prob is loaded after (re-order plugins in plugins sec. ACP). You can probably fine-tune the CSS to exactly how you like it.

phenomlab

@dunlix Already done... I've abandoned the light mode. I hate bright white websites...

Custom made currently. Once finished, I'll probably share it, but it requires modification to the templates, so you'll need the customise plugin to complete.
