Community

We add new users via the API when they sign up to our service. Since upgrading to v3, users all have "no email" until they have clicked the verification link that's sent to them.

This makes a mess of several things:

Our SSO setup, because we're not able to look up the user by email, so they can't log in at all until they've verified their email We can't use the "Validate email" option to validate them ourselves, because it says "Invalid email" Re-sending the verification link also does not work, presumably because it doesn't know where to send it

I have a situation where a user can't find the validation email and I cannot validate him or re-send the email to him. I am going to have delete him and recreate him from scratch.

This can't be intended behaviour surely? Is there a way to make the email address show up even if they haven't verified it yet?

Should have posted this earlier but oh well, this topic quickly turned into bug report thread so please use this one to report any issues with 3.0.0.

This forum is running the latest version of core and harmony theme along with multiple plugins.

When reporting a bug please first check if it has been already reported or fixed.

However, all of this comes at a price in terms of site speed. If you are using iFramely, remove it, and see how much your page speed will improve.

IFramely itself is a significant factor, yes... one wonders if perhaps we would be better served with a homebrewed solution that unfurls links asynchronously (but serves them unfurled if we've already seen it before, aka cached).

Not to derail this thread, but I do feel sometimes that IFramely is a bit heavy-handed of a solution 😄

According to German privacy laws the use of Google Fonts from Google Font Servers is forbidden ( strongly disadvised). Is there any way to disable / override the use of Google Fonts? Any hints are very appreciated (like - "use skin XYZ" or "customize here link"). Thank you so much in advance for your kind help.

Hi all. I was wondering if it's possible to change the look/wording of the email notifications / digests etc. For example, the weekly digest simply says 'Your Weekly Digest'. I'd love to say something a bit friendlier like: "Here's what you missed this week" (or something along those lines).

Is this possible?

hi all!
I run nodebb version 2.5.3 in tor network.

Let me first express huge thanks for creating such great forum engine and the plugins!

I have some problems and issues running some of the plugins.
like 2 factor authentication in tor browser i see the links and buttons for two factor authentication in user profile, but when i click on one of them nothings happens, its not working for me in tor browser.

Calendar plugin , there some issue with a tor browser, because i see the icon in first topic (during creation of the topic) but when i click it nothing happens.

Then the plugin for anti spam: nodebb-plugin-spam-be-gone , here when i save the config data it doesn't get to database, when go to other settings and then back, the previously saved data is not loaded and the plugin doesn't generate any capture.

Those 3 plugins are very important to me and i am willing to pay money to those devs to fix the bugs and make those plugins fully operational in tor network.

If your interested just send me a pm!

Hey everybody! 🐬

This tutorial will show you how to create a Dock Panel for the desktop device with auto hiding and button to create a new topic.

Why for the Desktop? PC have big screen, used dock panel on mobile device with a small screen - it's not good idea.

Why a Dock Panel? I think it's just convenient element in interface 🎮

This rules <div class="d-none d-xl-flex"> will need to show dock panel only on big screen, you can experiment with this and replace d-xl-flex to d-md-flex to show dock panel on tablet.

I had a go at setting up nodebb and it seems to have installed alright and the desktop version seems to work fine. However on my Motorola XT316 Android phone whenever I try to post anything it cause the web browser to freeze. When I try to log in it causes the web browser to do a download which I found quite odd but the download would always fail. Does anyone know if Android version 2.3.4 is a supported platform for NodeBB?

@baris @julian is there any possibility of forking this to NodeBB and making it compatible with v3? I use this on my own forum, but it doesn't seem to work properly under v3 with the below console error

caught ReferenceError: require is not defined at <anonymous>:2:2 at A (admin.min.js?v=pmf7etqmmps:138:828) at Dn (admin.min.js?v=pmf7etqmmps:138:51156) at s.fn.init.append (admin.min.js?v=pmf7etqmmps:138:52378) at s.fn.init.<anonymous> (admin.min.js?v=pmf7etqmmps:138:53468) at Te (admin.min.js?v=pmf7etqmmps:138:34548) at s.fn.init.html (admin.min.js?v=pmf7etqmmps:138:53148) at admin.min.js?v=pmf7etqmmps:87:16045

Thanks

Im working with the composer popup (not the one on the blank page). I'm looking for a server hook like filter:composer.build to add new data into that tpl. I couldn't see any hook fired (./nodebb dev) when you open the composer popup.

Here is another simple widget to add a new topic button into the new brand header widget area. This allows your users to create topics from anywhere in the forum:

new-topic.gif

The widget is super simple:

<div class="dropdown"> <button class="btn btn-sm btn-primary" data-bs-toggle="dropdown">New Topic</button> <ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-end p-1"> <li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(2);">General Discussion</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(3);">NodeBB Development</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(5);">Feature Requests</a></li> <li><a href="#" class="dropdown-item rounded-1" onclick="app.newTopic(6);">Bug Reports</a></li> </ul> </div>

If you want you can use the widget code from https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17095/how-to-create-a-category-selector-in-navigation to have a more complex category dropdown. Don't forget to update your category names and ids in the app.newTopic(cid) calls.

Is there any way I can add an Icon I see on FontAwesome to the list of icons that are provided in NodeBB?

There appears to be an issue with loading kits from Font Awesome. Super slow currently.

Hi there,

i posted this question on Sudonix before (not sure if I'm allowed to post a link here), @phenomlab noted it was a feature on persona and that it could be a good idea to address this issue to the developers, as it could have been overlooked:

On Harmony theme blockquotes are not collapsing as it seems. Or am I missing a setting? If there are nested, long quotes it can be a scrolling marathon on mobile devices.

For example, here the whole screen is filled by quotes and it's only 2 nested quotes:

I changed to Slim, it looks a bit different

Hi all,

I'm looking to set up Mailjet with Nodebb. I installed a plugin available but it doesn't appear under plugins, I'm not sure if the plugin is still compatible with v 2.8.12.

Does anyone have instructions on how to set NodeBB up properly with Mailjet? Thank you.

I know it's a simple question and I'm trying my best to work the config of NodeBB out, but I'm a bit stuck.

Appreciate the help,
Carl

sorry, I think I need some help.

my website can not login, console log will show "invalid csrf token", like this:

9c0ec53e-6123-4659-982c-15ba0a667b5d-image.png

Everything occured after upgrade nodebb version(v3.0.1 -> v3.1.4),
And I didn't do anything else during this period. I have been using nodebb since 2018, and I made sure to upgrade in strict accordance with the way recommended by the official documents.

I tried some way that can not solve this problem:

restore the version to v3.0.1 and v2.x; reboot my server machine, nginx, mongoDB;

Could someone please give me some advice?
I have use google, chatgpt, bing, github/nodebb, nodebb community to serch something useful for three days, Fail to produce substantial output.
