☁️ Discourse Air Theme

After discourse update no change in above the selector in dark mode the highlighted info is blank as above.

How do you disable the air theme’s topic thumbnail/excerpts to default behavior? Only showing topic title unless pinned?

A post was split to a new topic: Add Preference for sidebar vertical scrollu

Love the theme :pray:

I want to use the Modern Category + Group Boxes plug-in, but is there a way to rearrange the main page?

My issue is that all the categories appear in boxes on top, and the Latest section is below. While it’s really well designed, it might not be user-friendly for someone who is in the Community for a quick browse. Is there a way to place the category boxes on the left side of the home page (I know it’s possible to use the sidebar, but still) and then the Latest on the right, similar to the Discourse Clickable Topic plug-in?

How would I fix the background? I narrowed it diwn to the Chat plugin.

With the Chat plugin disabled or logged out it displays properly. See pic 1

Logged in with chat plugin enabled

See how there us a white column instead of the background between bubbles and the blue is cut in the center.

Hi, everyone! I hope you’re all doing great.

I plan to install the air theme and check it on different devices, but I have an issue with how it looks on iOS.

Is there a way to make the background static so you can only see the blue & grey on top when you’re logged in? What I’m looking for is to have a grey background when scrolling down through categories.

This theme is meant to be used in tandem with the modern category theme component that is also installed with the theme.

Visual Bugs as of 03/31/2023

Update: Most if not all bugs are not caused by Air Theme, but rather a patch update by Discourse.

  • Using the latest version of Discourse (at the time), Air Theme, and Modern Category + Group Boxes.
  • All settings from the OP tips area are matching.
  • All custom CSS has been disabled to rule out any conflicts.

Bug #1 - Categories are displayed as 2 columns.

When logged in, categories display as blocks (1 column) which is correct.

Update: Not related to Air Theme

  • Impacts Android, iOS, and Windows-Chrome using Mobile view when logged out.

Solution: Updating Discourse To: discourse v3.1.0.beta2 +864


Bug #2 - Header is missing. Users cant login.

Update: Not related to Air Theme
Solution: Updating Discourse To: discourse v3.1.0.beta2 +864

  • Impacts Android, iOS, and Windows-Chrome using Mobile view when logged out.

Bug #3 - When logged out, the categories page displays the Air Theme pill shaped categories (good), and also repeats the categories using the original category style native to Discourse (bad).

Update: Not related to Air Theme
Solution: Updating Discourse To: discourse v3.1.0.beta2 +864
Result: This entire are is no longer displayed. Only the Air Themed styles category pills are visable.


Bug #4 - White wrapper around categories missing.

Mobile View on Desktop - vs - Mobile View using App

The html body #main-outlet css class does not appear to be compatible on mobile devices.

Hi, welcome back :wave:

You don’t need to modify your theme. Unless I misunderstand, you can set up Google Analytics in the admin settings (Basic Setup or type ga in the search bar)

All plugins disabled, and the issues still occur on multiple devices, cache refreshed, and also tried incognito.

not sure about this theme specifically, but i’m running a live custom theme that uses #main-outlet css to make the white background in a very similar way (with rounded corners too) and it seems to work as expected on mobiles. i’ve set it a dark color and changed other attributes like size and the rounding corners (border radius) and i haven’t found any issues yet with how it looks on mobile.

My screenshot is how it os supposed to display on mobile White bubble around the categories vs a white column pane.

As I reported here and was fixed.

It was partially broken before creating the white wrapped column.

I am sure Jordon might provide some css code possibly to restore the bug if you prefer the white column. Mobile now for me matches mobile.

**EDiT: Looking at Op post you might be right. But the fix imho looks better as it flows properly with background. Perhaps Jordon can add a toggle for desired effect.

I have to locate the fix so my modified Air Lite theme matches. By like rhe Topic excerpts js was removed as it was excerpting all topics instead of just pinned topics.

I added Topic excerpts theme component to put excerpts in categories I want to have it. Unfortunately though it did not restore the pinned topics excerpts but many users wanted a default listing style for more posts per screen.

@jordan-vidrine I was wondering how to add your bubbles around the Who’s onkine plugin and search results?

Thanks for your reply.

It looks like most of the bugs were fixed with a Discourse Update that was released today.

I have update the original post to reflect the first 3 bugs which are not as a result of Air Theme.

The version which I am using now which fixed of the first 3 bugs, is:
Discourse: 3.1.0.beta3 (e014635a12)


Now that those bugs are fixed, all thats left is

Which is not a big deal at all. Although I still believe its a bug since Mobile View on Desktop and Mobile View on App/Browser (which should display the same) do not with the white #main-outlet style. I’m not sure which I prefer now. I’m happy with either outcome.

Hi,

Is it possible to remove the search bar on the homepage? I’ve noticed it’s not displayed on meta.Discourse.org when I switch to this theme but I don’t see any place to edit the css. :confused:
