Discourse Central Theme — Meta Pre-Release Out Now!

Could you please guide me where to look for more info, @Moin ?

All I’d be happy with is to have this screen for Central theme on my Discourse installation:

(This is from “Theme Creator” site, which shows custom CSS as expected.)

Does this help?
Can I disable the + Section button in the sidebar for non-admins? - #4 by Arkshine

Probably a good idea to write a Community wiki topic about that. The question is asked quite often.

Hi folks, is there a way to pull out just the style of the topic listing to use from Central on the default theme? With the small like and reply buttons?

One good way is to goto the theme or theme component’s GitHub and look over the code.

In your custom component copy a snippet you want to modify. This will give you the element you want to target. (Using inspect element in your browser is good as well. If in desktop you can try changes in the console).

If your wanting to override a setting use “!important”

Ie

Original code

. some-selector {
   Color; red;
}

New code with override

. some-selector {
   Color; blue !important; 
}

The team suggests copying code and making changes. Similarly you can use other theme & components to snippet codes as examples to achieve desired effects.

The user preferences section on mobile device is currently experiencing responsiveness issues. There’s excessive whitespace, making it difficult to navigate and use effectively on smaller screens.

@ludwikc I cannot reproduce what you are seeing in your screenie. Can you please add more info, like the exact URL, and maybe a copy or screenie showing any console errors?

Is Discourse Design team experimentation topic still pinned for you?

I was able to reproduce by clicking UX

Ah ha! I do not see the error when I do not have it pinned.

As soon as I pin the topic (and refresh the page) it does display wrongly as in @ludwikc 's screenie.

Nice catch, @Moin !

It seems it’s broken now. :thinking:

@ludwikc
I had the issue as well, I realized that if I removed the topic tags (still pinned) or if I removed the pin, it would fix the issue. So, you can only do one of these two things.

I second this, the theme is not compatible with the latest version of Discourse.

It seems as of the latest discourse version (3.4.0.beta3-dev), the content repeats and is not compatible.

Central theme is broken - #2 by david is probably also interesting for those who reported it here

Thanks @Moin, and also to the other reporters :pray:

The fix is now merged, so things should be working again after you update the theme. Sorry for the disruption.

I did report this back in September.

Along with other issues, if you look above, you will see if you have the same issues. :+1:

Could someone add the repo link to the first post? It is quite difficult to find.
