Display Topic Author on Topic List

UX

Ah! I definitely goofed by failing to provide a way to download or see the code! It’s just some CSS. I’ll bundle it into a proper theme component on GitHub when I get a chance.

// Hide all posters except the topic author
.topic-list .posters {
    width: 75px;
    text-align: center;
    
    // Only show first poster
    a:not(:first-of-type) {
        display: none;
    }
    // Get rid of offset and decoration
    a:first-child .avatar.latest:not(.single) {
        position: static;
        box-shadow: none;
        border: 0;
    }
    // Adjustment for center alignment
    & > a {
        float: none;
        margin-right: 0;
    }
}

// Make sure the correct user is showing at smaller width
@media screen and (max-width: 850px) {
    .topic-list td.posters {
        // Ensure first poster is showing
        a:not(.latest) {
            display: block;
        }
        // Hide everything else
        a:not(:first-of-type) {
            display: none;
        }
    }
}
