Blog - Adds a blog section to your community

luceos

Darkle are you in the right path, you should see a config.php and flarum file.

Darkle

luceos Correct 🤦‍♂️, I changed to another user path and missed it completely. Thank you very much!

Issue 1:
I think there is a bug if you set blog to homepage, it doesn't filter based on selected categories (in my case, that's one secondary tag)and shows EVERY post as a blog post... Haha 🙂

~~It will filter correctly if you navigate from a link within flarum though (eg. discussion tag, or new sidebar link)~~

Edit: Issue above was caused by my SSO extension
https://discuss.flarum.org/d/21666-php-and-wordpress-single-sign-on-sso-with-optional-jwt-addon

Issue 2:
If I add a blog tag after to an existing post and then load the blog page it will fail to load and throw the below error.

mount-redraw.js:15 TypeError: this.article.firstPostId is not a function
    at e.a.view (BlogItem.js:98)
    at Function.a (render.js:30)
    at render.js:482
    at f (render.js:419)
    at h (render.js:315)
    at render.js:444
    at f (render.js:415)
    at render.js:488
    at f (render.js:419)
    at h (render.js:302)

Issue was caused by flarum if notifications failed to send when posting (incorrect mail driver, or pretty mail template errors) because discussion would still post even though a 500 is returned, but notification would fail to send. When this happens lastpostid of the new discussion does not get set and remains NULL. I believe that is probably a flarum core issue.

Big thanks to @luceos and @JasperVriends for helping me track these down.

I am experiencing this as well and have experienced it before here ctml. Back then I tracked it down to a specific extension that impacted routes of extensions that were enabled after it. Do you by any chance make use of this SSO extension? This time around disabling SSO and disabling/enabling the blog extension didn't fix it like it did before.

Maybe this has been asked, but does anyone know a CSS way to change the default image? I can change it with CSS using !important, but then it changes it even if the post has a featured image URL.

~~something something~~

EDIT: Oh, I see now what you've wrote. Will try something else and get back if succeed.

EDIT #2: Got it!

.FlarumBlog-default-image[style] {
    background-image: transparent; 
}

.FlarumBlog-default-image[style=""] {
        background-image: url("https://i.picsum.photos/id/1033/536/354.jpg?hmac=5dphvDbU4XJ75Gx5UMSI72DAPcm2C8MA8H9VmdRHTCs");
}

hrvoje_hr This isn’t working for me.

hrvoje_hr

010101 what's the problem?

010101

hrvoje_hr There’s no change. Same default tree image.

hrvoje_hr

Did you try with !important? And do you have live link?

010101

hrvoje_hr Thanks for providing what you did. That got me on the right track. Here’s what works for me:

.FlarumBlog-default-image:not([style]){
      background-image: url();
      }

hrvoje_hr

010101 on my instance that targets all except the articles with the default image. Glad that it works for you.

010101

hrvoje_hr It targets any blog image, but not if an inline style is present. An inline style is only present when there is an added featured image. So it changes all default tree images to whatever image you want. But, if you add a featured image url in the article settings, that image is left alone.

010101

If you want to fix the overview text being too dark in dark mode you may do the following. You could target only dark mode. And you could of course go with something a little less bright than white...

.FlarumBlogOverview .BlogFeatured-list-item-details {  
padding: 20px 20px 20px !important;
background: linear-gradient(to top, #ffffff 0%, transparent 100%);
color: #ffffff !important;
}

.FlarumBlogOverview .BlogFeatured-list-item-details .data {
color: #ffffff !important;
}

This addresses one of the concerns @MikeJones pointed out.

Of course small things like this I’m sure will be fixed in upcoming releases.

waiting for - Upload images (using fof-upload)

JasperVriends

hacklido it's on it's way 🙂 FriendsOfFlarum/upload262

Amarok

hacklido you can using fof-uplaod to put your image in the blog post and then copy-paste tu url in the modal window 😉 that's a good option now.

@JasperVriends I noticed the picture is always in "Highlighted post" on php 7.4 but not with php 8.. is that's normal?

JasperVriends https://discuss.flarum.org/d/26180-this-is-a-must/16 I thought this was coming, I came excitedly 😃

That's what I was doing. Worked great 😀

JasperVriends

Uhm no? That isn't normal 🤔 Does it actually? Could you check the payload, what does the isSized attribute say in the payload? Is that somehow always true?

I was personally thinking he meant the blog image image uploader which was mentioned earlier and not the images in the posts (as that's already working). But I can be wrong 😛

I'm sorry, I am not that fast 😂

Think the same, but it's a solution before implementation 🙂

All are without this option up, but the image is like it's selected. You can make a turn on my website
maybe some CSS modifications could make this.. but have same on my test installation without any extension or modifiactions

Oh, nevermind. I've read the answer wrong, I thought you meant the usual image uploading 👀

I've just taken a look on the site, and something is odd/unexpected. For some reason, the isSized parameter returns a "0" (a string), instead of just a 0 (number). I'll fix this, make sure the serializer is set to a boolean and release an update in a few hours.
