alt⟨div⟩ -- peculiar, retro, and other niche XenForo styles
Alternadiv.com is where I make unusual XenForo styles that no one asked for. I do it because I enjoy experimenting with HTML/CSS/customizing XF, and also because I miss 2000s-era web design aesthetics.
This is one of those styles...
Faux Archive is, well... an archive mode for XenForo. I consider it faux (a lookalike) because it uses only CSS to achieve the archive vibe, as opposed to actually editing core files to create a true archive.
Because Faux Archive uses only CSS, there are no template edits aside from extra.less. This makes it easy to show/hide elements according to your needs.
Out of the box, archive is pretty archive'd up. Almost everything is removed from view but you can quickly show or hide elements by adding or removing them to my class list in extra.less.
By default, I have it set to hide almost everything, showing only:
- breadcrumbs
- page title
- page navigation
- node title
- thread title
- thread navigation
- message author username
- message content
- BB code in message content
- footer style chooser
- footer copyright
Faux Archive works best on the following pages:
- forum list
- forum view
- all node types (discussion, questions, suggestions, search, article, page)
- all article node layouts
- all thread types (discussion, poll, question, suggestion, article, custom thread fields, prefixed threads)
If you have widgets positioned above or below the forum list, thread list, or inside threads, you would need to add extra CSS to hide those by their widget ID. If you have widgets in the header, sidenav, sidebar, or footer, those are hidden by default.
That's all! Let me know if you need help hiding or showing something.
