It's possible to extend/override a helper?

SampaioLeal

I want to edit the username helper, add some styles to user display-name. It's possible to do this?

SampaioLeal Not sure about extending the helper, but you can style the username by using the .username selector, as usernames are wrapped with span.username (see https://github.com/flarum/core/blob/master/js/src/common/helpers/username.js#L11).

datitisev yeah, I thought about this, but i want to customize only the usernames of staff members
like admin, mods

datitisev

SampaioLeal Ah, I see. Where exactly do you want to customize them ? As you might not need to extend the helper at all.

datitisev i wanna edit the

export default function username(user) {
  const name = (user && user.displayName()) || app.translator.trans('core.lib.username.deleted_text');

  return <span className="username">{name}</span>;
}

making an algorythm to detect the user group, get the color and put in the style

SampaioLeal For every single place where the username is found ?
