Topic Image/Thumbnail/Featured-Image

bentael

it's done long time ago, but you have to enable it, it's not enabled by default.

It's been a while since anyone tested it, maybe the elements were removed from the default theme

but go ahead, we'll fix it if it's broken.

Go to
Admin Control Panel > Settings > Post > and check "Allow users to upload topic thumbnails"

Then when you attempt to create a new topic, you should see an "image" link at the right of the topic title.

Nifty

@bentael Ah, ok i found it. The Theme does not support it as you expected ;).
But it is not what i was searching for. I don't want that people to upload Images. I want them to select a image from a list which i can configure for the forum (like thumps up/down or what ever.). You find this functionality on nearly ever forum software around.

bentael

oh then that a different feature
create a new topic in the features request category, explain what you're looking in detail.

It was never implemented beyond replacing the avatar on the topics page, so, it's not really broken. What you're looking for is a Topic Icon. Not a Thumbnail. They're slightly different.

Topic Thumbnail is an image that preceeds a topic. Similar to how Reddit shows images on /r/all etc.

What you're after isn't in NodeBB yet, and if it was, I'd rather it were a plugin, I had similar functionality on SMF, and I hated it. Waste of Real Estate just for a thumbs up icon. Doesn't necessarily reflect what's in the actual topic. Imo, of course.

bentael

but I still think we should fix the Topic Thumbnail for the default theme, since this option shows up in the Admin panel, but does not really work when you enable it, so it's confusing.

@bentael Does it not replace the users avatar anymore then? It used to...

bentael

@a_5mith
if the options is enabled, and if an image is available for a certain topic, it will replace the user's avatar, if not, fallsback to the use the user's avatar

@kps What version of persona are you on? You need persona v1.0.21 for topic thumbnails to work.

@kps persona 1.0.26 is not compatible with NodeBB 0.7.2 or 0.7.1.

1.0.21 is that last version compatible with NodeBB v0.7.2. versions after that require master branch (dev version v0.7.3-dev).

NodeBB v0.7.1 was released with persona v1.0.16 not sure if any changes till 1.0.21 require core changes made in NodeBB v0.7.2.

@pichalite
Will resetting the plugin do the job (as in nodebb reset plugin persona ) ?
