Masquerade by FriendsOfFlarum, the user profile builder

ctml

Thanks, I should have looked there. Glad to see it is already reported and it is being considered, it would provide a big UX improvement.

ChipsyKing

First of all, great effort on this add-on, thank you!

Short question, would it be possible to have the enabled fields visible when one hovers over a username (along the avatar, online status, joined date)? Currently one would have to dig through by going on the users profile to see the information in the enabled fields.

Thanks in advance.

ctml

ChipsyKing that feature already exists, for each field there is an option "Show answer to this field in user bio"

ChipsyKing

ctml, that's what I mean - that option is enabled and I still have to dig into the user profile to view it. It doesn't appear in the pop-up bubble when you hover the mouse over a username.

ctml

ChipsyKing I think there could be a bug. I've seen behavior where a field doesn't show up on some profile cards (the popup) while for other users it does show, even though it has been set by them, and permissions to have/view are set to all members.

Yes this looks like a bug, I think I see what the problem is, but I'll need to take a closer look to fix it.

We show the fields on all user cards, on the profile or on the discussion list. Likewise, the bio fields relationship can be loaded on both BasicUser and User, so it should be loadable on the discussion list as well.

What's missing is the actual include in the discussion list. So this means that if you visited a user profile in the same browsing session, you will see their fields in the discussion card, otherwise you won't.

If someone can replicate this, feel free to open a GitHub issue explaining the steps to reproduce. Otherwise I'll get to it once I find some time.

ctml

clarkwinkelmann can confirm above steps work. I've made the issue to track FriendsOfFlarum/masquerade61

Justoverclock

not sure if is a bug but i have some visualization problem @luceos @clarkwinkelmann

and here when field are not compiled by user.

clarkwinkelmann

Justoverclock I don't understand what the problem is?

Is the field marked as required?

Even if a field is marked required, the users can avoid filling it in by navigating away from the Masquerade page after every login.

Justoverclock

no i mean css visualization problem, the text goes a little bit over the white space (is this regular?)

and if field are empty, the result is as the second image (is this regular too?) @clarkwinkelmann

and if yes, how can i adjust the visualization style?

clarkwinkelmann

Justoverclock first screenshot yes, that's how it has always looked like. I can agree it isn't the most pretty UI...

Second screenshot also seems to be as intended.

You can use custom local CSS to change the look. If you need more advanced customization that cannot be done with CSS, let us know what we could do to make it possible (additional classnames, different HTML tree?).

for my website i'm using masquerade to allow user to post theyr PC configuration specs...

but as u can see in the second image, it looks really bad with default style, i do not want something specific, just to make it more modern.

clarkwinkelmann maybe can be better if is possible to mantain the look that anyone can see into own profile...like this:

and not like this:

clarkwinkelmann

Release 0.3.7

Use new Flarum beta 15 admin panel page
Update deprecated code
Fix bio fields not always loaded
Improve user experience around saving and required fields

composer require fof/masquerade

Justoverclock

clarkwinkelmann should i launch

composer require or composer update ?

clarkwinkelmann

Justoverclock either should work if you were previously on any of the 0.3.* versions.

composer require make sure you install the latest compatible version, whereas composer update tries to only install minor updates.

Hello is there any way to filter user-directory on given masquerade field? My users are complaining that they have to look at all profiles on site if they want to find group of people with matching masquerade field (like town.)

aaronlbpeterman

Hey I was not sure where to post this question since it seems to be hanging between user-directory and masquerade so I link it also here:
aaronlbpeterman

clarkwinkelmann

aaronlbpeterman there is the answer: gambit https://github.com/FriendsOfFlarum/masquerade/blob/master/src/Gambits/AnswerGambit.php

I'm not sure whether anyone uses it and whether it's actually any good. It will search for an answer, but you unfortunately cannot specify which field to search in.

That field could be used from the user directory page by entering ?q=answer:whatyousearchfor at the end of the URL.

aaronlbpeterman

clarkwinkelmann Thanks. However it is good solution for me but I doubt if any of my users would really use it in that form.

clarkwinkelmann

aaronlbpeterman for data like this, the Taxonomies extension has much better UX and integration with the user directory page. Unfortunately it's not compatible with the latest Flarum yet.

clarkwinkelmann

Version 0.4.0

Added Flarum beta 16 compatibility.

Set the required version to * in composer.json before updating Flarum. You can also use composer require fof/masquerade:* to make that change prior to the Flarum update.
