welcome box extension - have u some advice?

Justoverclock

i'm working on a welcome box, but i'm not sure if someone is interested to this (if i need to make it public or not). If someone have suggestion, improvements, ideas, maybe we could join forces.

i will release this public only if someone is interested

The logout button can be located at the top right with only fa-sign-out-alt

Justoverclock

tolgaaaltas at the top right of avatar? sure thats a nice suggestion

tolgaaaltas

Justoverclock avatar or box, it's up to you.

Here's my suggestions. I couldn't find FA icons on Figma, so i used another icon pack.

tolgaaaltas nice concept, i will work on it

I would suggest leaving the avatar animation out or have the option to turn it off in an extension setting; you can probably take it one step further and replace the basic avatar helper with say the AvatarEditor component like this extension did it 🙂

Justoverclock

Ralkage this is already done! but i cannot find the right class for the overlay

why to show the logout button? Let's not encourage users to logout... and i love this extension. looks super clean

Justoverclock

User24 yeah i think i will remove the button and use the icon as tolgaatas says

It looks very interesting! it reminds me of @Kylo extension, maybe you would like to take a look at it, it's been a while and nobody has updated it, maybe it will help you or you can make a fork https://discuss.flarum.org/d/24496-welcome-widgets

Darkle i'm not good as @Kylo , but of course if he want is ok for me 🙂

Darkle

Justoverclock You are improving a lot and it is very motivating to see how you started without much knowledge and see how much you are achieving. @Kylo is currently away due to work, @IanM for example is taking care of maintaining temporary forks of some of his extensions 🙂

Justoverclock We were calling to go through basic extension dev just 2 weeks ago, and now you're publishing multiple well-designed, functional extensions. The progress you've made and work you've done is incredible, and in such a short time too: I'm very impressed! Nobody immediately knows how to code: learning is always a process. If you continue doing what you're doing, you'll become an excellent developer.

Darkle i'm doing my best 🙂 (I started learning javascript a few days ago) thank you very much for encouragement!

thank you very much @askvortsov 😃

Ralkage

Justoverclock I'll be around to help in any way I can as well 🙂 @askvortsov is a wonderful mentor and just from our first call I learned so much! I've also seen enough Flarum code to understand the basics and what aspiring extension developers, such as yourself, need in regards to pulling in the right components 😉

Justoverclock

Ralkage exactly, i'm in trouble when i need to find the right component 😆
