HiveReactKit Dev Update: Translation Controls, Mobile Safe Areas & IPFS Media Rendering
HiveReactKit improves profile translations, mobile safe-area handling, and seamless IPFS media rendering.
HiveReactKit
User Profile Translation Improvements
Stop Automatic Translation on Profile Feeds
Fixed an issue where User Profile feeds automatically translated posts into English without user interaction.
Post titles now always display in the author's original language.
Preview snippets also remain unchanged and preserve the creator's intended content.
Manual translation controls continue to work exactly as before for users who choose to translate content.
Better Multilingual Experience
Users can now browse international Hive profiles without losing original context.
Preserves authenticity of content across different languages.
Improves consistency between profile feeds and original on-chain content.
User Profile Translation Improvements
Mobile Safe-Area Header Fixes
Improved Sticky Header Positioning
Fixed sticky page headers being hidden behind device notches and status bars.
Applies to:
- Post Detail Pages
- User Profile Pages
- Loading Skeleton States
Header elements now remain fully visible on modern devices with display cutouts.
Better Navigation Experience
Back buttons now remain accessible at all times.
User avatars and header action buttons no longer overlap with device safe areas.
Profile tab navigation correctly positions itself below the adjusted header layout.
Consistent Loading States
Added identical safe-area handling to skeleton headers.
Loading screens now visually match the final rendered pages.
Creates a smoother and more polished mobile experience.

Performs cached content-type checks for improved performance.
Previously loaded media can render faster on subsequent views.
Cleaner Post Presentation
Removed unnecessary iframe wrappers around supported media.
Eliminated leftover "Unsupported" placeholder messages.
Posts and Snaps now render significantly cleaner and more consistently.
