Forum Update May 2nd

[SGaist]

Hi,

What about the use on mobile ? Did you also took that into account with the new theme ?

[Diana]

@SGaist hi, yes mobile layout is automatically provided by the Harmony template theme as well. We will make small modifications to it, but you can see already how the UX goes if you resize your browser window when looking at the default example: https://community.nodebb.org/

[SGaist]

@Diana looks like it's also moving the upper bar we have now at the bottom of the page (just a quick test from my phone). Some muscle memory are going to get upset 😅

@SGaist any change this is colliding with help-bot avatars or other "floating" widgets that we use?

That was previously the case, I remember making 2 tickets about that. Was on the official website and not here

[SGaist]

@J-Hilk are you sure you wanted to ask me about this ? :-)

[J.Hilk]

@SGaist you at least checked the example ? :P

[SGaist]

@J-Hilk The auto hiding bottom bar is likely going to be the thing I like the less. Personal preference but I currently like to have stuff at the top.

I am not sure what you are referring to with help-bot avatars and "floating" widgets though.

[J.Hilk]

@SGaist stuff like this:

[SGaist]

@J-Hilk they may have moved depending on the width of the browser.

Edit: new expected maintenance date April 22nd

@Pedro is this due to the Sahara sand ? :-D

@Pedro said in Forum Update April 22nd:

You can view the actual mockup here; let us know your feedback!

It's maybe worth noting that actually viewing the mockup requires both having a Figma login (or registering for a new account), and requesting access to the file, which can only be viewed after the request is approved by Qt.

I assume all requests will be approved, but point is it's very far from an instant-gratification sort of thing.

[SGaist]

@FeRDNYC hi,

I think the access expired or something like that. The mock-up was definitely accessible when the thread was started.

[Pedro]

@FeRDNYC @SGaist Hi, I just fixed it for a new URL. It should be working for everyone again. :)

Thanks for the comment!

Hello everyone, I'm sorry to announce that we have to postpone the Forum Update until 29, April 2024 because of some found critical issues after upgrading NodeBB to v3.
I am trying to fix those so we can have the most stable Forum release. Thanks for your understanding. @Pedro Please update the date on the banner so it won't cause any confusion to forum users.

[Nhan Nguyen]

@SGaist Just a teaser, I believe we will have decent mobile support for mobile devices including

• New bottom mobile navigation layout (Some navigation var behavior can be personalized in Profile -> theme settings)
  

• Progressive Web App support with correct Qt icon for Android Google Chrome & iOS Safari

• Post navigator is still at the bottom but with Qt development cool styles :D

Edit: new date May 2nd.

We are making sure the update occurs on a suitable date and with all identified issues fixed.

[SGaist]

@Nhan-Nguyen I'll have to use my mobile upside down 😁

@SGaist :D, your muscle memory will get used to it
