In other news, the User Locations map from the Locations Plugin is now compatible with Bars.

This is best place on Top like so:

But you need to set the height in Theme CSS yourself, like so:

.component-widget {
    .locations-map {
        height: 400px;
        button.map-expand {
            display: none;
        }
    }
}

known issue: expand needs work or hidden hence the above CSS.

I’ve just added support for the 3.3.x feature of custom homepages, so you can stipulate widgets you want to appear on the home page:

So you can now lay out a Homepage like this:

See this change: I’ve had to remove the modifier so it is optional, otherwise all installs of Bars are forced to have a homepage, even if they don’t want one.

Add the modifier instead to the parent Theme or another TC when you need it.

The rest of the logic remains.

You have to confirm changes in two places, once on the dialogue and again by the setting name. That’s an idiosyncrasy of Discourse core Theme settings, not Bars.

I’ve slightly changed the layout and icons for the sidebar buttons:

I believe the collapse/expand makes a lot more sense now :sweat_smile:
