Hi @WiFi Plug. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To add icons in front of each label in a UCheckboxGroup in Nuxt UI, you can pass an array of objects to the items prop, and include an icon property for each item. While the official documentation for UCheckboxGroup does not explicitly mention an icon property for items, this pattern is consistent with other Nuxt UI components (like UAccordion, UDropdownMenu, etc.) and is commonly supported in UI libraries. However, based on the knowledge sources provided, there is no explicit documentation or example confirming that the UCheckboxGroup component supports an icon property for each item. The documented item properties are label, description, value, disabled, class, and ui, but icon is not listed among them. Therefore, I'm sorry, but there's no information in the knowledge sources to confirm that you can add icons to each option in UCheckboxGroup directly via an icon property or similar mechanism UCheckboxGroup API. If you need this feature, you may need to use custom slots or extend the component, but the knowledge sources do not provide details on how to do this. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai "const quickFilterItems = [ { id: 'on_sale', label: 'On Sale', icon: 'i-lucide-check' }, { id: 'in_stock', label: 'In Stock Only' }, { id: 'is_featured', label: 'Featured' }, { id: 'is_popular', label: 'Popular' }, ]' I tried this but it didn't work, i assume i need to use the template thing to generate each item in checkboxgroup with the icon

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- You're correct—according to the official documentation, the UCheckboxGroup component does not natively support an icon property for each item. The documented item properties are label, description, value, disabled, class, and ui, but there is no mention of an icon property or a slot system for customizing the rendering of each item with an icon UCheckboxGroup API. Unlike components such as UAccordion or UBreadcrumb, which provide a slot property and named slots for custom rendering (including icons), UCheckboxGroup does not expose such a slot mechanism in the knowledge sources provided. Summary:
You cannot add icons to each option in UCheckboxGroup using the icon property or a documented slot/template approach, based on the current official documentation. If you need this feature, you would need to create a custom implementation or wait for official support. If you have further questions or need a workaround, let me know! ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai can't I use like slots or #template like with other components when it renders each item to render it how i want with an icon can you give an example
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the knowledge sources provided, the UCheckboxGroup component does not document support for item-level slots or custom templates for rendering each option. The available slots are only for the group legend, label, and description, not for customizing the rendering of each checkbox item with icons or other custom content UCheckboxGroup API. Here are the documented slots: - legend - label (for customizing the label, but only receives the item and id) - description (for customizing the description, also receives the item and id) There is no example or documentation showing a slot or template that would allow you to inject an icon or arbitrary markup before the label of each checkbox item. Example of available slot usage:
<UCheckboxGroup v-model="value" :items="items">
<template #label="{ item }">
{{ item.label }}
</template>
</UCheckboxGroup>
<UCheckboxGroup v-model="value" :items="items">
<template #label="{ item }">
{{ item.label }}
</template>
</UCheckboxGroup>
But this only allows you to customize the label text, not to inject an icon or other markup. Conclusion:
You cannot use slots or #template to fully customize the rendering of each item (e.g., to add an icon) in UCheckboxGroup, based on the current official documentation and knowledge sources. If you need this feature, you would need to create a custom checkbox group implementation or request this feature from the Nuxt UI team.

@kapa.ai "<template #label="{ item }"> <div class="flex items-center gap-2"> <UIcon :name="item.icon" /> <span>{{ item.label }}</span> </div> </template>" i did this which works however it also sets the checkbox icon to this icon, so can i target the slot for the checkbox to set the icon to the standard icon?
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- You're correct that using the #label slot in UCheckboxGroup allows you to customize the label area, such as adding an icon next to the label text. However, the icon you set in your item (e.g., item.icon) is not natively supported by the component for the checkbox indicator itself. The checkbox indicator icon is controlled by the icon prop on the group or individual checkbox, and by default uses the checkmark icon from your app config or the default (i-lucide-checkUCheckboxGroup API. From the documentation, there is no slot or prop to separately target the checkbox indicator icon for each item. The icon prop on UCheckboxGroup sets the indicator icon for all checkboxes in the group, not per item. The #label slot only customizes the label area, not the checkbox indicator itself. Summary:
- You can use the #label slot to add a custom icon next to the label. - The checkbox indicator icon (the checkmark) is set via the icon prop and applies to all items. - There is no documented way to set the indicator icon per item or to target the indicator separately from the label using slots. If you want to keep the standard checkbox indicator and only show your custom icon next to the label, your current approach is correct. Just ensure you do not set the icon prop on the group or items to your custom icon—let it use the default. Example:
<UCheckboxGroup v-model="value" :items="items">
<template #label="{ item }">
<div class="flex items-center gap-2">
<UIcon v-if="item.icon" :name="item.icon" />
<span>{{ item.label }}</span>
</div>
</template>
</UCheckboxGroup>
<UCheckboxGroup v-model="value" :items="items">
<template #label="{ item }">
<div class="flex items-center gap-2">
<UIcon v-if="item.icon" :name="item.icon" />
<span>{{ item.label }}</span>
</div>
</template>
</UCheckboxGroup>
This will show your custom icon next to the label, and the checkbox indicator will remain the default checkmark. If you are seeing the indicator change to your custom icon, double-check that you are not setting the icon prop on the group or items to item.icon. The knowledge sources do not mention a way to set the indicator icon per item or to further customize the indicator via slots UCheckboxGroup API. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai "<USlider v-model="priceRange" :min="0" :max="maxPriceLimit" tooltip />" I want to customise the tooltip text to add a dollar sign to the front of it how can i do that
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To customize the tooltip text in the USlider component and add a dollar sign in front of the value, you can use the tooltip prop with an object and set the text property. However, according to the knowledge sources, the text property is static and does not provide a way to dynamically include the current slider value in the tooltip text. The tooltip prop accepts any property from the Tooltip component, such as text, kbds, content, etc. But there is no documented way to interpolate the current value into the tooltip text directly via the tooltip prop in the current version of Nuxt UI USlider API. Summary:
I'm sorry, but the knowledge sources do not contain information on how to dynamically customize the tooltip text of USlider to include the current value with a dollar sign. The tooltip can be enabled and customized with static text or other tooltip props, but not with dynamic content based on the slider value.

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the knowledge sources, the UPageHeader component allows you to pass a links prop, which renders a list of buttons in the header. Each link can have properties like label, icon, to, and target. However, there is no documentation or example indicating that you can include a badge inside a button via the links prop directly, nor is there mention of a slot or custom template for the button content within UPageHeader. Therefore, I'm sorry, but the knowledge sources do not contain information about adding a badge inside a button rendered via the links prop in UPageHeader UPageHeader documentation. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai UInput manual override to make it be focused or active.
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To manually focus a UInput component in Nuxt UI, you can use a template ref and call the focus() method on the underlying input element. The knowledge sources provide an example using useTemplateRef and a keyboard shortcut to focus the input:
<script setup lang="ts">
const input = useTemplateRef('input')

defineShortcuts({
'/': () => {
input.value?.inputRef?.focus()
}
})
</script>

<template>
<UInput
ref="input"
icon="i-lucide-search"
placeholder="Search..."
>
<template #trailing>
<UKbd value="/" />
</template>
</UInput>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
const input = useTemplateRef('input')

defineShortcuts({
'/': () => {
input.value?.inputRef?.focus()
}
})
</script>

<template>
<UInput
ref="input"
icon="i-lucide-search"
placeholder="Search..."
>
<template #trailing>
<UKbd value="/" />
</template>
</UInput>
</template>
In this example, pressing / will focus the input. You can also call input.value?.inputRef?.focus() programmatically whenever you want to set focus to the input. This is the recommended way to manually override and focus a UInput component UInput with keyboard shortcut. There is no explicit mention of an "active" state override, but focusing the input will visually activate it according to the component's styles. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i basically just want the border to be the primary color if my input has a value and isn't empty. maybe i should target the :ui={} thing
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To achieve a primary border color on your UInput when it has a value, you can use the :ui prop to conditionally apply Tailwind classes based on the input's value. The knowledge sources show that the ui prop allows you to override slot-specific styling for Nuxt UI components Powerful component customization. Here’s how you can do it:
<script setup lang="ts">
const value = ref('')
</script>

<template>
<UInput
v-model="value"
placeholder="Type something..."
:ui="value ? { base: 'ring ring-primary' } : {}"
/>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
const value = ref('')
</script>

<template>
<UInput
v-model="value"
placeholder="Type something..."
:ui="value ? { base: 'ring ring-primary' } : {}"
/>
</template>
- When value is not empty, the input will have a primary ring (border). - When value is empty, it will use the default styling. You can further customize the classes as needed. This approach leverages the ui prop for per-component customization, as described in the documentation Powerful component customization. If you want to match the exact focus/active state styling, you can inspect the default classes and adjust accordingly. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai on my site with nuxt ui pro whenever i open a modal or anything which prevents scrolling the background it causes the scrollbar to become hidden and a layout shift occurs. is there a way to solve this
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Nuxt UI Pro uses the <UApp> component, which provides global configuration for layout behaviors, including scroll locking when modals or overlays are open. According to the documentation, <UApp> enables controls to prevent layout shifts when the body scroll is locked (such as when a modal is open) UApp usage. If you are experiencing layout shifts due to the scrollbar disappearing (causing content to move), this is typically addressed by the framework adding padding or margin to compensate for the missing scrollbar. <UApp> is designed to handle this automatically. What you can do: - Make sure your app is wrapped in <UApp> at the root level, as shown in the documentation:
<template>
<UApp>
<NuxtPage />
</UApp>
</template>

<template>
<UApp>
<NuxtPage />
</UApp>
</template>

- If you still experience layout shifts, you can adjust the scroll body behavior using the scrollBody prop on <UApp>. This prop allows you to control how padding or margin is applied when the body is locked. For example:
<UApp :scroll-body="{ padding: true }">
<NuxtPage />
</UApp>

<UApp :scroll-body="{ padding: true }">
<NuxtPage />
</UApp>

This should help prevent layout shifts by compensating for the scrollbar width. If you are already using <UApp> and still see the issue, the knowledge sources do not provide further troubleshooting steps. In that case, you may want to check for custom CSS or layout overrides in your project that could interfere with the default behavior.

@kapa.ai is it possible with tailwind maybe to say that the scrollbar should remain visible even when overflow is hidden? so that way the scrollbar doesn't vanish causing the shift when modals etc open i would prefer that approach
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the knowledge sources provided, there is no information or documentation indicating that you can use Tailwind CSS (or any CSS) to keep the scrollbar visible when overflow: hidden is applied. In standard CSS, setting overflow: hidden on an element will always hide the scrollbar, and Tailwind's utility classes are abstractions over these CSS properties. The knowledge sources do mention that Nuxt UI Pro's <UApp> component is designed to handle layout shifts caused by scroll locking (such as when a modal is open) by compensating for the missing scrollbar, but they do not describe a method to keep the scrollbar visible while overflow is hidden UApp usage and scroll body control. Summary:
No, according to the knowledge sources, it is not possible with Tailwind CSS (or standard CSS) to keep the scrollbar visible when overflow: hidden is set. The recommended approach is to use layout compensation (like <UApp>'s scroll body controls) to prevent layout shifts when scroll locking is needed. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- You can achieve a main carousel with a thumbnail preview carousel below using the Nuxt UI UCarousel component. The official documentation provides an example of this pattern, where the main carousel displays the selected image and a row of thumbnails below allows users to select and change the main image. Here’s an example based on the documentation:
<script setup lang="ts">
const items = [

'<https://picsum.photos/640/640?random=6'>
]

const carousel = useTemplateRef('carousel')
const activeIndex = ref(0)

function onClickPrev() {
activeIndex.value--
}
function onClickNext() {
activeIndex.value++
}
function onSelect(index: number) {
activeIndex.value = index
}

function select(index: number) {

- The main carousel is controlled by activeIndex. - Clicking a thumbnail calls select(index), which updates the main carousel to show the selected image. - The active thumbnail is visually highlighted.

@kapa.ai im trying to add ring-2 ring-inset ring-accented classes on the images in a carousel how do i properly do this
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To add the classes ring-2 ring-inset ring-accented to the images in a Nuxt UI carousel, you should apply these classes directly to the <img> elements inside your carousel slot. The Nuxt UI carousel allows you to fully control the markup inside the slot, so you can add any Tailwind classes you want to the images. Here’s how you can do it:
<UCarousel v-slot="{ item }" :items="items" class="w-full max-w-xs mx-auto">
<img
:src="item"
width="320"
height="320"
class="rounded-lg ring-2 ring-inset ring-accented"
>
</UCarousel>
<UCarousel v-slot="{ item }" :items="items" class="w-full max-w-xs mx-auto">
<img
:src="item"
width="320"
height="320"
class="rounded-lg ring-2 ring-inset ring-accented"
>
</UCarousel>
This will apply the desired ring styles to each image in your carousel. The documentation shows that you can use the default slot to render each item, so adding Tailwind classes to the <img> is fully supported Carousel Usage. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i need to attach a ref to the carousel container which has the overflow so i can then display a shadow based on its scroll state. how can i attach a ref to it
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The Nuxt UI Carousel component exposes a way to get a reference to the underlying Embla carousel container using the useTemplateRef composable and the emblaRef property on the component instance. According to the documentation, you can do the following:
<script setup lang="ts">
const carousel = useTemplateRef('carousel')
</script>

<template>
<UCarousel ref="carousel" />
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
const carousel = useTemplateRef('carousel')
</script>

<template>
<UCarousel ref="carousel" />
</template>
This gives you access to carousel.value.emblaRef, which is a Ref<HTMLElement | null> pointing to the carousel's container element (the one with the overflow). You can then use this ref to observe scroll state and display a shadow as needed.

@kapa.ai will i be able to use that ref reactively as i scroll the container and the images move? as my end shadow appears but won't disappear nor does my start shadow appear
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the knowledge sources, when you use useTemplateRef('carousel') and access carousel.value.emblaRef, you get a Vue ref to the carousel's container element. This ref is reactive in the sense that it updates when the component mounts or unmounts, but the scroll position itself is not automatically reactive—you need to listen to scroll events or Embla events to update your shadow logic as the user scrolls. The documentation does not provide a built-in reactive scroll state or a composable for tracking scroll position or boundaries. You will need to manually add event listeners (e.g., to the element referenced by emblaRef) or use Embla's API events to update your shadow visibility as the carousel moves Carousel Expose API. Summary:
- The ref (emblaRef) gives you access to the container, but you must manually listen for scroll or Embla events to reactively update your UI (such as showing/hiding shadows). - The knowledge sources do not mention a built-in reactive scroll state for this purpose. If your shadows are not updating, ensure you are listening to the correct events and updating your state accordingly. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i have an embla carousel and a secondary embla carousel with thumbnails to switch the main carousels active image. im using the auto-play plugin on the main carousel which works and it stops succesfully when i swipe to switch images on it. but when i click an image in my secondary carousel it doesn't. how can i get the ref of the auto play plugin or something so i can manually stop it when i switch images on my secondary carousel
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the knowledge sources, the Nuxt UI Carousel component (which wraps Embla) exposes the Embla API via the emblaApi property when you use a template ref on the carousel component. However, the documentation does not mention direct access to the autoplay plugin instance or a method to control (e.g., stop) the autoplay plugin programmatically from outside the carousel component Carousel Expose API. You can access the Embla API like this:
const carousel = useTemplateRef('carousel')
// carousel.value.emblaApi gives you the EmblaCarouselType instance
const carousel = useTemplateRef('carousel')
// carousel.value.emblaApi gives you the EmblaCarouselType instance
But there is no documented way to access the autoplay plugin instance itself from the Nuxt UI Carousel, nor is there an example of stopping autoplay manually when interacting with a secondary (thumbnail) carousel. Summary:
The knowledge sources do not contain enough information to confirm how to get the autoplay plugin instance or stop autoplay programmatically when switching images via a secondary carousel. You can access the main Embla API, but not the autoplay plugin directly, according to the current documentation.

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Yes, you can use the <NuxtImg> component instead of native <img> tags inside a UCarousel in Nuxt UI. <NuxtImg> is a drop-in replacement for <img> and can be used anywhere an image is rendered, including inside slots of components like UCarousel. This allows you to take advantage of Nuxt Image features such as automatic format conversion (e.g., format="webp"), optimization, and responsive images NuxtImg Usage NuxtImg API. Example:
<UCarousel v-slot="{ item }" :items="items">
<NuxtImg :src="item" format="webp" width="320" height="320" class="rounded-lg" />
</UCarousel>
<UCarousel v-slot="{ item }" :items="items">
<NuxtImg :src="item" format="webp" width="320" height="320" class="rounded-lg" />
</UCarousel>
This will render each image using <NuxtImg>, applying the webp format as requested. Just ensure that the @nuxt/image module is installed and configured in your project NuxtImg API. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai when using external image urls as the src and using format=webp do i need to whitelist the external urls to be processed or not?

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Yes, when using external image URLs as the src with <NuxtImg> and specifying format="webp", you must whitelist the external domains in your Nuxt Image configuration for them to be processed and optimized. This is required to ensure that external URLs can be safely optimized and to prevent abuse. You can do this by adding the domains to the domains option in your nuxt.config.ts:
export default defineNuxtConfig({
image: {
domains: ['example.com']
}
})
export default defineNuxtConfig({
image: {
domains: ['example.com']
}
})
This allows Nuxt Image to process and convert images from those external sources, including applying the format="webp" transformation Get-started: Providers Get-started: Configuration. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai any way to optimise gifs i load via url?

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- You can optimize GIFs loaded via URL using Nuxt Image, as several providers (such as IPX, Netlify, and Weserv) support transformation and optimization for GIF files. For example, the Weserv provider specifically mentions support for a wide range of image transformations for all JPEG, PNG, and GIF files, and you can use various modifiers as documented in their quick reference Weserv provider. However, the extent of optimization (such as reducing file size or converting to other formats) may depend on the provider you use. Some providers may allow you to convert GIFs to more efficient formats like WebP, which can significantly reduce file size, but this may result in the loss of animation if the GIF is animated, as not all providers support animated WebP output. To enable optimization for external GIF URLs, make sure to whitelist the domains in your Nuxt Image configuration Get-started: Providers. In summary:
- Yes, you can optimize GIFs via URL with Nuxt Image, depending on the provider. - The available optimizations and output formats may vary by provider, and animated GIFs may not always retain animation if converted to other formats.
- Always whitelist the external domains you want to optimize. If you need specific transformations or want to ensure animation is preserved, check the documentation for your chosen provider for supported features and modifiers. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
