Right Sidebar Blocks

Theme component

Hello, it seems workable :slightly_smiling_face:

Add this to a component. Desktop > CSS

@media screen and (min-width: 767px) {
  .tc-right-sidebar {
    html.rtl & {
      float: left;
    }
    + #list-area {
      html.rtl & {
        float: right;
      }
    }
  }
}

would be an idea to grant trust levels to view?

currently our site is private, but the right sidebar shows all info still for non logged in users, which creates a privacy issue.

Can we lock it to appear for only trust levels and which levels that can view it,

Many thanks

Just a thought. What about implementing maybe a swipe right to summon the sidebar on mobile?

54

Can’t it be displayed on the category list, I installed it here and feel like I haven’t installed it

55

how do I let it also show up on the topic page? I mean the discussion page like what we are seeing now.

56

Adding the sidebar to the topic view is not supported by the component (there’s much less room available for a column).

Is it possible to add a “View all” under Popular Tags like the “View all” from Top contributors?

Sure, that’s reasonable. UX: Add a "View all" link to the popular tags block by pmusaraj · Pull Request #39 · discourse/discourse-right-sidebar-blocks · GitHub should add it (once it gets reviewed and merged).

Love this! Thanks for making it. :handshake:

Is there any way to exclude admins group from the top contributors list?

EDIT:

Also I added this:

*Trying to increase min width to 1024px.

But it has no effect. I know this is on me, missing something, as I have no experience with front end stuff/css. Any help would be appreciated.

Excuse me for the necro-reply, but I am having the same exact issue. My custom footer template disappears, but header stays intact.

Unfortunately I am not too familiar with the plugin API as I am more used to the vanilla DOM.

63

It looks like the CustomHtml component used in the footer and defined in the core:

is overwritten by the CustomHtml defined in this theme component:

By API, Carson suggests using the below-footer plugin outlet to define your footer custom HTML.
I can show you an example later.

Possible bug (please delete this post if I’m incorrect): It appears that the ‘Right Sidebar Blocks’ theme component is causing interference with any custom code placed into « After Header ». When I attempted to add an image right under my header, it did not display. However, after removing the theme component as a test, the image appeared. Just wanted to report it.

Can we add something like above as a sidebar block? (Suggestion)

Are some basic PRs welcome? I wanted to add some classes to some of the block types to make styling a little more straight forward.

Sure, that sounds like a good improvement.

I’m trying to insert some dynamic content in the right sidebar beneath that big block showing the logged-in user. The custom-html block works fine if I just type in some static HTML, but as soon as I make it a script, it goes blank. Is there a way to get some dynamic content of my own there?

69

You likely have to allow-list your script or iframe in admin settings.

I figured it out. It was my theme. I switched to the default theme and customized some CSS and HTML there and now everything works.
