There seems to be an unexpected bug when used with Who's Online plugin.
That is, if the last post’s author of a topic is online, it’s showing as if the topic’s author itself is online on the /latest and Categories & Latest Topic pages.
Hi @dax
Thank you so much for your awesome theme component.
I wish there was a chance to translate the “Author” term!
Following up on this as well. Is there any way to translate it?
Now yes, it is possible to translate. Update the component to the latest version.
BTW I reduced the width from 70px to 50px. It looked better this way. How about removing that css from the html tag itself and rather create a css class? That way it’s easier to override the CSS in an update-safe manner. I had to change the theme component’s code to adjust width. I will have to reapply those changes manually after updating it.
Alternatively add it as a setting for the theme component backend. 
keep up the good work, the component is great!
PS: Would love to have a similar component but for a “Latest Post” column like in Sam’s Minimal Theme or MD Topic List. This wish comes my community directly.
There was a reason for the width to be hardcoded, but now I can’t remember
.
In case I will make the change when I have some time 
I have the same doubt as @thegurjyot, I’d prefer to have a separate author column and another one for all other posters, is there a simple change I can make to achieve this?
Just make a comment in the code next time when you do something specific ![]()
#Dev Notes: I did this cause the interwebs told me I should
I am still looking forward for a mobile only option in this theme component. Maybe you’ll implement in future update.
Tried something pure css from this topic but seems that would not work now:
Maybe not something your want but you can just comment out everything on Desktop section. (CSS and )
I create a pull request to fix behavior on mobile view
https://github.com/discourse/discourse-topic-author/pull/3
- Fix invalid profile url
- Should show user-card on first click rather than go to profile directly
Hey @dax
is there any way to disable the theme component in a specific category or view?
I am testing the Topic List Preview and it prevents TLP from displaying thumbnails when both components are activated at same time. The issue appears for TLP plugin and theme component as well.
It is not recommended to use this component in conjunction with other plugins/themes that heavily modify templates.
Hi! I think this is a great component.
Just one quick question: Does it show the avatar flair image? I have installed this theme component in my local discourse installation. While I can see the flair when entering the topics, it does not show in the list of topics (where the theme component changes the layout).
Thanks!
I reply to myself: It is not implemented in the component. I forked and played a bit with the code but I’m not sure whether I can retrieve the primary group (and the flair parameters) from the topic creator. Any hint on that @dax ? Thanks again!
When using this together with the “Topic List Previews” plugin, the “Author” column shows the topic title and “Topic” shows the users, even in categories where no Topic List Preview features are enabled.
¿Hay alguna forma de desactivar completamente el componente de tema en la lista de mensajes?
Hola @dax, noté que este componente temático dejó de funcionar en una de las actualizaciones recientes de Discourse.
Olvídalo, lo desinstalé y lo reinstalé y vuelve a funcionar. ¡Gracias! ![]()
@dax Hola, ¿esto todavía se mantiene? Si es así, ¿podríamos también tener una opción para mostrar el nombre en lugar de la imagen y mover la columna a la derecha del nombre del tema? Blizzard tiene esto (WoW Classic General Discussion - World of Warcraft Forums) y se ve muy bien.
He estado usando este componente durante algún tiempo en combinación con el plugin de previsualización de temas.
Ahora las previsualizaciones de temas han sido descontinuadas.
Hay un nuevo componente de Discourse llamado miniaturas de temas que hace el trabajo de mostrar miniaturas de la primera imagen.
El problema es que no es compatible con el tuyo, si activo el tuyo, no obtengo ninguna miniatura en ninguna categoría.
Sería genial poder combinar ambos.
Lo ideal para mí sería mostrar miniaturas si la publicación tiene una miniatura, pero mostrar el avatar cuando no la hay.
Pero no sé si eso es posible para ti.
Agregar la opción de seleccionar las categorías y etiquetas donde se aplica el tema del autor también sería genial, similar a lo que hacen las miniaturas de temas.
Así podrías activar ambos en diferentes categorías sin superposiciones o conflictos entre ellos.
Por ahora, tuve que deshabilitar este componente para poder tener miniaturas.
Gracias por el trabajo.
