Pallet Theme for Flarum

MIT license Latest Stable Version Total Downloads

Light Pallet

What's up! I've been stalking the discuss since when they gave me 3 months vacation from where I work. This theme was one of my unreleased works (which still feels like far from finished) before I got that job and took me couple of hours to update it for the stable release.

There are some breakthrough changes for the Tags extension with this and I'm still unfamiliar with the stable Flarum release so let's stick with the Dev tag for a while.

Introducing experimental tags navigation...

Dark Pallet - Tags Navigation

When you head into a tag's discussion list, only that tag's children and secondary tags will be shown in the affixed sidebar. Main purpose of this idea is to create a tag-focused user experience.

It can be used with dark & light modes but sadly, it doesn't work with the Night Mode by FriendsOfFlarum at the moment.

This extension is under minimal maintenance (or maybe no maintenance at all ??).

Installation

composer require "the-turk/flarum-pallet-theme:0.1.0-beta.4"

Recommendations

It's best to use this theme with the following extensions:

  1. Synopsis by IanM
composer require ianm/synopsis

Known Issues

When you start browsing from the "Tags" page, tag listing will mixed up which I believe due to a bug in flarum/tags -- haven't taken a deeper look into this.

    This really looks amazing. Will give it a spin later!

    Your install & update instructions will not work when it comes to updating.

    The install command will lock the requirements at an exact version, so composer update will have no effect. Either the install command should install a version with caret or tide, or *, or require should be used for update each time to a new specific version.

      Just a little improvement could be replace avatar components with avatar editor component 😊

        looks awesome 🤩 any demo sites or anyone installed it?

        Kylo nothing much changed on mobile, it's pretty much the same as the original Flarum theme. Here's the tags page: Phone - Tablet

        No sweat! 😃 I wanted to see how it looked on mobile, and your first screenshot there alone tells me that you put a lot of thought into this theme. For instance, I like the overflow control you added for the tag info on the tags page on mobile 🙂

          Can other people help with the development of this theme?

          Theme alternatives for Flarum are limited. All of the themes have features that need to be developed. @Kylo
          is unable to develop regularly due to his job.

            This theme is incredible and has a "dashboard for discussions" feel to it. Hope this gets further development/stays updated. If I eventually learn the innards of flarum I might do it myself!

            Here are some features I hope to see:

            • Discussion view list in tags is different from discussion view list in all discussions (missing right sidebar);
            • Customizable color scheme via ui (instead of overriding via css; and
            • Support for the following extensions:
              • davwheat/custom-sidenav-links
              • justoverclock/keywords
              • justoverclock/headerslidershow
