NodeBB Sidebar & Header

Drunken Cheetah

Thanks for your fast reply.

I tried both methods. Custom header & widget header. When I use the widget header, the sidebars are not pushed, but the header is placed under the category name.

If i use the custom, the sidebars are pushed but is placed in the correct place where I want it to be shown, as per my image in OP.

Regards

EDIT: I apoligize. I have been using Global Header not Brand Header. I will try brand header now.

I used my same code I used in the original, and added it to the Brand Header but it doesnt show up at all. I should mention seeing as I am new, to get the actual code required for placement etc. I inspected element of nodebb to get the structure. Would you mind (if possible) you would share how you done it in your brand header?

That should show up with in the same place as our header

@baris

Unless I’m using the wrong html setup, when I added my html in there nothing showed up in the header.

The Brand Header only shows up if I have the sites title set to "Show".

Edit: I was able to replicate it, if I entered a blank site title. It is now showing the same way

@Drunken-Cheetah yeah that could be an issue, if you don't have a logo or show site title is off then that area isn't rendered. https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-theme-harmony/blob/main/templates/partials/header/brand.tpl#L1

I think we can change that around so the widget shows up even if logo and site title is missing.

@baris That would be cool.

So far, I do have a logo yes. However, if I made the site title empty, but turned on the "show site title" it shows nodebb. However, if I enter a couple spaces for empty space. It shows exactly like the header on this website. No extra text, and no invisible element there to identify its whitespace.

Thanks for your reply.

@baris I appreciate that, and quick fix. Thank you again.

Aside from that. I am actually really enjoying nodebb. I am running it alongside plesk, with 4 other websites which run php, no interferenance with anything and runs a dream.

Definitely way easier to use and understand then mybb
