About Mindashq

This is a custom Reddit CSS theme to make subreddits look attractive and easy to use.


Use Mindashq to add a minimum dash of quality to the standard Reddit appearance and make any subreddit look clean modern and organized.


This theme is organized in separate modules stylesheets - easy to copy-paste, and replace as required. And with a wiki to help pick the best combination to have a great looking subreddit.


The standard stylesheet module (base theme) does not introduce any additional images, or, inserts text via styles that may affect the language changes or translations.


The 7+ pre configured modules add flavour with images and text for additional customization - and are optional.


The base theme, and the opt-in modules can be used with any subreddit base theme.


The /r/mindashq team is thankful for all the subscribers and innumerable messages of help, feedback and encouragement that has made a "text-only" stylesheet revamp your Reddit experience and take it to next level.

New mod update - I fixed the expando button and I plan on doing nothing else

For a long time, the expando button of /r/midashq has been broken, making it invisible and impossible to click on. Since I use the midashq theme as my primary reddit theme (through the legacy gold themes feature) I figured I'd ask Reddit to be a moderator of this "unmoderated" subreddit and fix this issue.

Thanks to this post by /u/LucasRuby I was able to fix the sub CSS and the theme is now fixed for everyone using it globally.

I don't plan on doing any other changes to this subreddit or the theme.

How do I add a user flair?

I try to change mine then click save and it doesn't save. And for some subreddits, it doesn't give me any flairs to edit.

Your CSS is broken and it's breaking the expando buttons

Where it is:

.expando-button.image.collapsedExpando:before,
.res-highlight-nsfw-expando .thing.over18 .expando-button.image.collapsedExpando:before {
		content: '❏';
}

Permalink (github)

Should be:

 .expando-button.image.collapsed:before,
.res-highlight-nsfw-expando .thing.over18 .expando-button.image.collapsed:before {
		content: '❏';
}

Before
After

Can pinote be edited to only take the text from the sidebar?

I want to just take the text from the sidebar because I want to be able to add however many links and what not. I don't want it to just be squished in the right side of the box.

flairs

on the edit flair page, the forms are covered by the sidebar.

it seems like on small screens the sidebar is blocking some of the buttons for editing flairs on user and links.

Is there a way to have a gallery of scrolling images for the header with mindashq?

My sub r/badscificovers showcases bad sci-fi book covers (go figure!) and I think it would be nice to have the header be a gallery of some classically terrible covers. Any ideas?

I know the basics of CSS but am by no means an expert.

I would like to only implement the sidebar CSS of Mindashq on the /r/Naut theme, how do I go about this?

I'm a mod at a private sub named /r/Perkers, I would like to implement the beautiful sidebar mindashq has on our existing Naut theme (from /r/Naut). How do I go about this?

[Bug] With RES update, NSFW expandoes don't work because they use the :before element as the new "nsfw in expando" tag does.

I've first noticed this in a sub I mod, but it isn't caused by my modifications, but by Mindashq code. I think swapping :before tags with :after tags should work.

Absolutely fantastic theme. So great to have the functionality of /r/Edurne's boxes back, and implemented so elegantly.

"Users Online" box is off by 1px and padding issue

I need to reduce the empty space on the "readers" portion so that I can have the "users here now" have more room. I also noticed that the bottom portion that contains those is 1px larger than the top part. I've tried to fix it but I can't seem to make them even widths.
