Hi everyone, I’m getting started on developing things for Discourse, and I’m working on a theme component. Link: GitHub - NateDhaliwal/discourse-persistent-banner: A theme component for Discourse that cannot be closed by the user. · GitHub When putting it on Theme Creator, the settings don’t appear, even though I have a settings.yml. Any ideas?

created a quick pull request for you so you can see the way to split up the files properly. feel free to merge or just have a look at the branch. https://github.com/NateDhaliwal/discourse-persistent-banner/pull/3

Do you see any error messages at theme creator? settings.yml main description: "This will change the background color of the banner. Enter valid CSS colours or hex values (including the #)." I think you have to use the same quotation marks at the beginning and end. settings.yml main default: "black" This could also be a problem. I would try default: "" settings.yml main banner_border_thickness: default: 3 type: integer description: "This will change the border thickness of the banner. All numbers are in pixels (px)." banner_text_content: Maybe you want to add “block” to the choices. Otherwise you have to use the revert button to choose that again.

Whoops, just realised I was clicking on ‘Create new’ instead of importing it… But now, when I try using the URL, it says that about.json is invalid or doesn’t exist, asking me if it is a theme. About.json: about.json main { "name": "Persistent banner", "about_url": "https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-persistent-banner/330575", "license_url": "https://github.com/NateDhaliwal/discourse-persistent-banner/blob/main/LICENSE", "component": true, "theme_version": "5.0.0", "authors": "NateDhaliwal" } Is there something wrong?

:roll_eyes: @merefield Would version be in ""?

Probably that too. Just look at examples.

Thanks! One last one, I can’t seem to get the variable to display. https://github.com/NateDhaliwal/discourse-persistent-banner/blob/main/common/header.html Was it because I didn’t initialise it properly? I tried following the guide…

don’t use “header.html”, use a proper component (preferably a .gjs file, but .hbs might suffice). use html-safe helper whenever outputting html from settings or variables.

Would I have to use import Component from "@glimmer/component"; export default class PracticeComponent extends Component { get bannerLinks() { return JSON.parse(settings.banner_links); } } then?

Look at the billions of examples :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

You only need to use a gjs file if you need to process stuff with javascript, otherwise an hbs template file might suffice. Experiment.
