Umutcan Hi Lauren,

I open a new thread with this problem and the user @datlechin view this other selector Post--by-actor to review.
The problem whith this selector is that only view the author label the OP user when signin in his account. Not view for all users and visitors.

I testing with others selector but not have view the good selector to working perfect as same has other old flarum version.

Justoverclock Hi Just!

One question about.
Now in Flarum new version the Custom CSS not working any more so need to go with "author label" via plugin.
I am interesting in add this label in my online forum.

I view the Plugin in github created by @Dem13n but not have any update many months ago.
You said some months ago that works fine, but now when the new flarum update all is ok?

I only have one Flarum installation online, for the moment not have any domains for testing external plugin. And in this case not found any original thread in this forum with chat about this plugin.

Maybe possible working in new flarum version?

This plugin have the possibility to change the "label" for other word in the admin? Maybe "OP" or other similar word in spanish language in my case.
Have the possibility to label only all the replies sending by OP, but not label the first thread message? Similar that working with "custom CSS" ?

thanks!

Walys

tested now on 1.2 and works fine

i think you can change the label through linguist maybe?

Walys

Justoverclock Thanks for testing Just!
The extension no have any admin menu?

Have the label in the first message for the thread? or only in the replies made for the OP ? In my case prefer thath only have the label in the replies, not in the first message.
About change the label through linguist, need to install more plugins, and for the moment prefer working with "the minimun" possible in my small online project.

Justoverclock

yes if i remember well is only on the replies.

you can edit the yml file inside the vendor folder (i do not recommend this btw)

010101 Speak about the same plugin yes?
Made by @Dem13n more than one year.
I contact with the autor some time ago but not any reply for me and not view any "formal" thread in this forum about the extension.
maybe any dev go with one fork to new updates and have the possibility to change the label name or color via admin panel. 😄

Justoverclock

Walys I will do this in my spare time only if demien can’t maintain this anymore

Thanks Just! If you create the fork with the extra power, tagging me please to view your new fork plugin.

Damien have more than 8 months that not post any message in the forum and not view any "oficcial" thread for this extension. And view that have other thread with a Flarum theme without any update and now it's incompatible with the last version. I think not maintenance for this moment any extension.

I think, if you go with one fork to update the base with more features only need to said that the base has been created by Damien.

everything that improves is good for the forum!
Thanks for you and for Damien to create the base.

i made a little pr for the repository, now is up to date for 1.2.

p.s. demien is active 😉

I view in Github that you send "pull request" to change the version to 1.2.
If you not need neccesary go with a fork for this extension to update with some power to change name or color label via the admin panel, maybe possible go with other "pull request"?
Sorry but not understand very well how is work with github.

EDIT:
I open a discussion in Damien Github to view if have any possibility to update the extension with this little change, to have possibility to change name via admin panel.

Hint: I just used this for something else. To target the first post only, you may do this:

.PostStream-item[data-index="0"] {
display: none;
}

Of course you need to add whatever selector your author tag is using. I don't have the full CSS, but I believe by using a combination of what is shared above in previous posts, along with this trick, you can make the author tag not appear in the first post.

Walys

010101 you need to add whatever selector your author tag is using

This is the problem now.
With the new flarum version is that there is no specific tag for the author replies in the thread that can be seen by any reader, even if he is not logged in.

Walys A few weeks ago I talked to a user about it, it was an unexpected bug (flarum/framework3356) and it's already fixed in dev, we have to wait for a new version to be released, probably Flarum 1.3.

Walys

Darkle Ohhh this is a good news! Thanks Darkle!
Await for new version to implement manual via CSS and not with extension.

I wanted to use this to add a OP style label on my site. Below is what I ended up using, because I wanted to spell out what OP means on hover.

//Topic Starter

article.CommentPost.Post.Post--by-start-user .Post-header h3:after {
    content: "OP";
    background: none;
    border-radius: 4px;
    padding-left: 10px;
    padding-right: 10px;
    color: var(--button-primary-bg);
    margin-left: 14px;
}

//Topic Starter Hover

article.CommentPost.Post.Post--by-start-user .Post-header:hover h3:after {
    content: "Original Poster";
    background: none;
    border-radius: 4px;
    padding-left: 10px;
    padding-right: 10px;
    color: var(--button-primary-bg);
    margin-left: 14px;
}

I'm sure there is a "prettier" way, but this is the best I could do with my limited knowledge. Hope it helps someone!

Wellwisher

treyb Just added this to my production website,
This is fricken amazing doo thank you 😃
Really nice css trick!

"Jazz it up" by adding Font Awesome (result):

/* OP Label */
article.CommentPost.Post.Post--by-start-user .Post-header h3:after {
    content: "\f521  OP";
    background: none;
    border-radius: 4px;
    padding: 5px;
    color: #fff;
    margin-left: 10px;
    background-color: var(--button-primary-bg);
    font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Free", system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Ubuntu, Cantarell, Oxygen, Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}

article.CommentPost.Post.Post--by-start-user .Post-header:hover h3:after {
    content: "\f521  Original Poster";
}
/* OP Label  END*/
