Forum change?

mvikman

@mvikman huh? Both pictures are from the recent threads url

https://forum.netgate.com/recent

If you had a specific thread open, like this "Forum change?" it showed the pictures on the top of the page in the right side of the subject line.

Edit. actually it still does when removing the filters

@mvikman ah - now what I see what your talking about.. Yeah I hadn't noticed that one. That one at least for me isn't as bothersome.. But @stephenw10 any way to make that one go away too?

I mean what is the point of such a tiny little picture?

stephenw10

Hmm, yeah also seeing that. It's not a topic thumbnail..... maybe the 'media gallery' feature? Both seem completely pointless!

No memes in the Netgate forum? I guess some topics come close enough.

stephenw10

Just no meme-previews.

Me too I like how it says Jonathan Lee 2100

If anyone else is annoyed with those images in the top right when looking at a thread, like the example @mvikman posted up.

I noticed in a thread that had multiple images in it.. This simple rule in ublock removes them.

images in the top right when looking at a thread

div[component="topic/thumb/list"] {display: none !important}

?

@SteveITS Possible - I just used adblocker picker to pick what was showing up, that one might also work as parent or something I didn't look at the actual code of the page.

FWIW I still see image previews on iOS Safari. Probably a different CSS file being used.

In related (CSS) news I think this one line addition will hide "deleted" topics like the deleted spam in https://forum.netgate.com/category/76/tnsr-feedback:

ul.categories-list li.deleted, ul.topics-list li.deleted {
opacity: .65;
display: none !important;  # <-----
}

I assume you just see 'This topic is deleted' message there? The content there should only be available to mods/admin.

SteveITS

@stephenw10 ah, yeah, sorry, someone asked on Reddit why you were deleting all your feedback. Obv. not.
I just didn't carry that entire thought here. cap:

It would be cool if there was a way to hide self-deleted messages too, so I don't click on the thread just to find out the post was deleted. :)

stephenw10

Yeah I usually nuke the content entirely these days just to make it cleaner but I think only admin can do that.

I can at least clean that up.
