Introducing the NodeBB 0.7.0 Persona preview

jarey

@psychobunny really like the changes on mobile. Have to see it on desltop, i'm sure it is impressive too there. Great work, congrats!

Edit: i would change on mobile the menu behaviour, closing the lateral menu when an option is selected, seems easier for me.

pretty cool theme, but surely missing important features if you're going to keep this here:

direct link to latest post within /recent and /unread
quoting
voting

make sure you don't forget about them

update coming shortly!

take your time you're the boss...

Very nice.
Is this a new theme ? I've upgraded to persona preview but I don't see the same

Reik

Classic feel, yeah! It looks very nice, but '3 dots in column' button (for sharing posts) should be bigger imo . I can hardly click it .

Biggest issue I've found is on mobile, open a chat with someone, the side nav goes, but doesn't move back over, so you can't see the chat. Other than that, as above, needs quote and reply etc, but you probably knew that.

Post updated, and we've already got a bunch of bug reports XD

This is the first iteration and so expect bugs

... and assign them to @baris

Same here, needs a bit of padding, nice catch! Guess I'm not going to be editing any more posts from now on.

Since I'm taking a break from theming for a bit, I'll leave the above issues on the tracker. Feel free to add any there

I would upvote all of you guys but I totally forgot to implement the upvote component. D'oh! (Issued on bug tracker)

Could use the little expand forum width icon, bottom right corner. I loved the wide view in Lavender.

I think this theme would have eventually ended up in NodeBB anyway.

It's the typical forum look that everyone is so familiar with, but better because its NodeBB.

Is there a drag in for the menu on mobile? If not, that would be cool. I like the material design.

I want to make this a setting in the user panel instead. Previous behaviour changed the dimensions post-load which made cold loads look a bit wonky at times.

There will be, as well as some cool mobile things we have planned (like dragging columns) that will make it into the expanded version of this theme (ie. The "Lavender" of the original "Vanilla")

woooow!! Great job guys
Best theme so far! Elegand and simple! READABLE!

esiao

wow nice theme

daymond

Awesome guys, good job. Maybe should change the font size and find a better font family for this theme. So far, everything else looks extremely great.

Leonardo Galani

It would be nice with you could have collums for widgets on the footer.. i tested it with widget on the sidebar and it doesnt look that good.. >.<

psychobunny

As I said earlier:

even the widget areas are hardcoded right now because we expect a refactor of the widget system soon for better performance.

But don't worry, the new widget system will be much, much, more awesome And if we don't get it out in time for 0.7x we will make this theme backwards compatible with the current system
