Top featured works emoji bug

AI-generated summary

A user Goorman reported a bug on the Blenderartists forum where emoji in featured work titles are visible without hovering, due to CSS rules using color: transparent which doesn’t affect emoji images. They suggested a fix using visibility: hidden on the title. Arkshine clarified that the issue stems from custom CSS, not the default Discourse implementation. nat advised notifying administrators and closed the discussion.

Hey there, Sergey on the line :slight_smile:

It’s a bit of an old bug, but anyway:

When surfing on Blenderartists forum, I found myself a little bug: there’s a section at the top of the website, where you are able to see 6 featured top works. When you hover on one of them, the title becomes visible. The thing I noticed is that if the title contains an emoji (as shown in the screenshot below) it’ll still be visible even if you haven’t hovered on it yet.


I did myself a little investigation and ended up with the next CSS-rules that might help to solve that problem.

The thing is the title of those featured row images has next rules:

.featured-topic h3 a {
    font-size: 14px;
    color: transparent;
    transition: color .6s,text-shadow .6s
}

I don’t think that “color: transparent” is a proper way to do this. So that’s why it affects only on text, but not on an emoji itself. Because the emoji is wrapped in an “img” tag.

So I think it would be a better way to remove “color: transparent” & make something like this:

.featured-topic h3 {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    padding-top: 0;
    left: 5%;
    width: 90%;
    text-align: left;
    visibility: hidden;
}

.featured-topic:hover h3 {
    visibility: visible;
}

So the final code will look like this:

Hope that helps :slight_smile:

Hi Sergey!

Thanks for the report, however, I could be wrong, but this is not what the default CSS looks like in the Homepage Feature component :thinking:. From what I see, it’s your customizations. :smile:

Hi, @Arkshine!

Sorry, didn’t know about that, I thought that was the Discourse feature. Pardon me :slight_smile:
