AlexJ Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 How can I apply group formatting for user at all places? Highlighted Rex box on username doesn't show correct formatting. Version 4.4.1 Pjo 1

Pjo Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 I would also like the post format to be formatted. How can I do this?
newbie LAC Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 Template postContainer Find {template="userLink" group="global" app="core" params="$comment->author(), $comment->warningRef(), FALSE"} change to {template="userLink" group="global" app="core" params="$comment->author(), $comment->warningRef()"} This looks like a bug. Submit a ticket. Ramsesx and AlexJ 2

Pjo Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 In two places? Only in postContainer. The latest version.

bfarber Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Just to clarify an earlier comment, this is not a bug. We made a conscious decision intentionally to only highlight the username when the formatted group name is not also displayed. When you see your username there, and you see the group name formatted 2 lines below it, we did not feel the username also had to be formatted in this manner. We tested what is being discussed here out of the box at first, but were not happy with the result and opted to go the route we have intentionally - that is, the rule of thumb is "if the group name is also displayed (and formatted), then the username is not formatted".

In that case - why also format in Reactions? I mean in reactions - username are formatted. For now i am using @newbie LAC changes. It's like left side you get no formatting and right side you get formatting. Doesn't make sense to me. But is it possible to apply formatting 'everywhere' when someone selects 'Global' in AdminCP because definitely Global selection doesn't still mean Global? Is their any performance issues when you apply formatting on left side? Just curious.
bfarber Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 The reactions is different - your name may not be shown (and it would be weird not to format other user's names), or your name may be shown (in which case it would be weird to format everyone else's name but not yours). The decision was based on the UI implications and not on performance - there is no measurable performance hit from formatting the user's name in this context, we just felt it looked "weird" basically to have the name and group stacked, both formatted.

What about in the case of the whosonline widget? It no longer has any formatting associated to the username since the latest update.

It certainly doesn't have the + signs either. Is there some other configuration required? Did my upgrade fail? As you can see the group styling works everywhere else. EDIT: I just realised I'm using a plugin because I wanted last 24 hours...... thanks! Edited March 18, 2019 by Aetherdan
bfarber Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Yes, your screenshot is of an "Online Today" widget, not the default "Who's online" widget. We have no control over 3rd party widgets. (The "+" icon you referenced, by the way, is a simple group prefix and not some special feature or option)

Why not just add an extra setting in the options (maybe for 4.5)? Thanks.
