Adding "Author" label to posts

Justoverclock

is it possible to add a laber for each usergroup? for example, mod, admin, author etc...?

Justoverclock Not using this method unfortunately. That would require additional development as this is just CSS.

I've pasted it in the custom CSS but it's not showing on the forum, what else should I do?

enricodx Can you try clearing the cache ?

enricodx

[deleted] Sure! Maybe some extension are blocking it?

[deleted]

enricodx Unlikely as it's just CSS

[deleted] Now after some time, the label appeared. Better like this then 🤣

I noticed that the label appears when I open a discussion from the All Discussion pages, but it not appears if I recall the url directly. Any way to fix or it's because is just a css?

[deleted]

enricodx Odd. That should work regardless. Can you send me a URL so I can check ?

It's this from a mobile device ?

[deleted] it happen to me also on flarum.it

[deleted] @Justoverclock It's curious that happens quite the opposite with the Topic Starter extension.
Same old story 😅

[deleted]

enricodx Can you provide a link so I can check ?

Thanks

Ok. I just tried this on my own forum, and it works fine. I choose a random discussion from the list, and the AUTHOR tag shows. I then copy the URL and open it in another browser, and the AUTHOR tag shows there, too. If you can provide me with a URL so I can check, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

[deleted] u can try any url on Flarum.it

I think this is a bug in core to be honest. I can replicate this, and the reason as to why the author badge doesn't show is because the CSS class it relies on is not loaded unless triggered from the discussion list. There's nothing I can do to fix this sadly.

[deleted] u think is good to open an issue? But I don't know how to explain that in technical terms

enricodx

[deleted] interesting 🤔 so why the Topic Starter extension works the opposite way? It show the label only on pages recalled by url

[deleted]

enricodx no idea, but perhaps they should meet 🤭

I think it makes more sense for the 'author' badge to not be part of the link to the usercard/profile.

So, I think I'd be tempted to use

article.CommentPost.Post.Post--by-start-user .Post-header h3:after

instead of

article.CommentPost.Post.Post--by-start-user .Post-header h3 span.username:after

JohnP Aaaaaaaand... a way to hide it from the first post only? Cause is obvious that he started the topic

JohnP

enricodx You could probably use The CSS selector :not(:first-child)

I'm not in front of computer right now, but I'll take a look when I am.

This should work:

div.PostStream div.PostStream-item:not(:first-child) article.CommentPost.Post.Post--by-start-user .Post-header h3:after { content: "Author"; background: #F05D1D; border-radius: 4px; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px; color: #fff; margin-left: 14px; }
