Sidebar User Field Toggle

Thank you, @Lhc_fl, for quick and quality solution.

Our use case is based on our marketplace request’s description:

The idea was inspired by Our solution for blurring NSFW content, we just started by inverting the logic and needed a toggle for our community to blur & unblur media.

Just add Custom User Field as a Checkbox and follow our approach below.

We use Sidebar User Field Toggle with additional custom component like so:

  1. Create new theme component right within your admin dashboard
    /admin/customize/ → Components → Install → Create new (component)
  2. Add CSS:
CSS
/* display nsfw blur and overlay text on any media in #nswf topics */
.nsfw-hide { 
	.topic-body .cooked img:not(.emoji):not(.avatar), 
	.topic-body .cooked iframe, 
	.topic-body .cooked .lazyYT-container,
	.topic-body .cooked .video-container,
	.topic-thumbnail img:not(.emoji) {
        filter: blur(10px);	
        -webkit-transition: .3s ease-in-out;
        transition: .2s ease-in-out;
	}

	.topic-body:hover .cooked img:not(.emoji), 
	.topic-body:hover .cooked iframe,
	.topic-body:hover .cooked .lazyYT-container,
	.topic-body:hover .cooked .video-container,
	.topic-thumbnail:hover img:not(.emoji) {
        filter: blur(0);	
        -webkit-transition: .3s ease-in-out;
        transition: .2s ease-in-out;
	}

	.topic-body .cooked a.lightbox:before, 
	.topic-body .cooked iframe:before,
	.topic-thumbnail a:before {
	    z-index:2;
        padding: 5px;
        font-size:1em;
        position:absolute;

        color:#fff;
        content: '👀 Hover to show';
        background: #e86800;
	}
	
	.topic-body .cooked a.lightbox:before, 
	.topic-body .cooked iframe:before {
        top: 15px;
        left: 10px;
	}

	.topic-thumbnail a:before {
        top: 65px;
        left: 20px;
	}
	
	.topic-body .cooked a.lightbox:hover:before, 
	.topic-body .cooked iframe:hover:before,
	.topic-thumbnail a:hover:before,
	.topic-body .cooked .video-container:hover:before {		
	    display:none;
	}
}
  1. Add JS (Head):
JS Code
<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.8.7">
const { userPath } = require("discourse/lib/url");
const { ajax } = require("discourse/lib/ajax");

const you = api.getCurrentUser();

if (you) {
  ajax(userPath(`${you.username_lower}.json`)).then((res) => {
    api
      ._lookupContainer("model:site")
      .appEvents.trigger("sidebar_user_fields_toggled", {
        user_fields: res.user.user_fields,
      });
  });
}
// https://meta.discourse.org/t/css-classes-for-group-membership-for-simplified-ui-mode/60838/2

api.onAppEvent("sidebar_user_fields_toggled", (status) => {
    if (window.jQuery) {
        window.jQuery(function ($) {
            if (status.user_fields[2] === "true") { // Or some else
                $('body').addClass('nsfw-hide' );
            } else {
                $('body').removeClass('nsfw-hide' );
            }
        });
    }
});

</script>
  1. Just set up the toggle component’s buttons the way you want them to be. We use Custom User’s Field ID there as a reference.

P.S. It may be we could enter the same code into the Toggle’s component itself, but I just don’t bother to test it and why touch perfectly working code anyway?

:heavy_plus_sign: The @Lhc_fl’s component works within Dropdown navigation type perfectly too.
