Hahaha, good question. I didn't even notice. I just googled for the documentation to get to it quickly. I didn't even pay attention to the URL.

Sounds like it may be stuck in cache. I'd clear your cache and see if it goes away.

Once v0.9.0 is released, these emailer version mismatches will be dealt with... 😄

Thanks i too am having similar problems

@ThomLSA Are you reverse proxied through nginx? Do you have the capacity to add a DNS record?

If so, then adding it as a subdomain is pretty easy.

Hello all,

Simple question; did not see it posted yet.
How can one incorporate an unread-count, indicating the count for a specific subcategory? For instance, the Announcements category, or a subcategory within.

I have created a new navigation option, directing to a subcategory, but I would like to have an unread count appear on that option, but I need it to only show how many are unread in the specific section. I played around in the admin panel, to no avail, and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Thank you.
I did disable the option in the API-write module, and now it's working in a shell terminal when I send the above CURL command.
But when I try to use CURL in HTTPS within my PHP program,
I get this message (401) : A valid login session was not found. Please log in and try again.
I don't understand why I get this message, because :

This is fixed on latest master/persona/vanilla.

I fixed the issue by adjusting notifications_list.tpl:
Line 17:
<a href="{notifications.path}">

@baris ,

Still get

And Emailer not installed , any suggestions?

@ron_jeremy We do offer the non-profit plan (at the $20/mo price point), although support is not included with that plan, and is billed hourly.

We'd need any non-profit documentation you can obtain (either provincial or federal) in order to verify eligibility 🙂

Seems like your Redis server is not running, did you install it onto your system?

My bad, this error was caused by extra / in config.json

SOLVED

Just in case anyone else runs into a similar problem, I was looking at the wrong api urls to get what I needed.

I needed to be getting JSON from the topic data, rather than category or post. Most everything is working now.

Thanks @pitaj . I am learning and it getting more interesting. I am able to do the menus also partially and with lil more time, I can i for the way i want i guess. Thanks you ur support.

If you want, feel free to share the config above - works with redis - not mongo - which is fine with me bc I prefer redis all day anyhow. it's 30 times quicker and smarter in my limited experience with mongo - you know it picked up the data i already had in mongo and I didn't even do anything :-). This could have been the forever logs - but I have no idea - node is new to me - but i'm starting to really like it.

Would you happen to have your upstart script that you use to keep your forums going on reboot? Or method that you use? Like specific - that will be the icing on the cake for me.

@BDHarrington7 No idea, and wouldn't know how to check it. Anyway, I already destroyed the Droplet so I can't answer that question. In a bit I will rebuild a new CentOS droplet and start from scratch.

I think my biggest issue is simply not understanding file and directory paths. I am likely in the wrong folder running commands that expect me to be in another folder, etc.

If I had hair on my head it would be gone by now.

I'm not looking for a fully automated process, but a process that generates a list of spam users, where the admin can ban or delete these users with just one click.

There are several ways to identify spam users.

What I see is, that users register and either place a spam post directly or wait several days and then post spam.
So in our forum a user with one post and negative reputation is a spammer with a 99.5% hit rate.

I really would appreciate a plugin for that, or better a broader one, where based on user parameters different actions like 'ban' or 'delete' can be taken on admin' s decision. One admin could prefer 'ban' another one could prefer 'delete'.

Also there could be different triggers for actions like 1 post and negative reputation
registered long (= month or years) ago, but no post,....

Unfortunately I'm pretty new to nodebb and not able to code a plugin myself.

How much memory does the local installation running on redis consumes?

GitHub (github.com)

I am up and running! I am pretty sure I figured out what the issue was. Oh man, this is embarrassing...

So, I used the Terminal on my Mac to ssh into the server. However, what I didn't know is that I must have somehow lost the connection either from being away from the computer for too long and/or letting the computer go to sleep. So, when I would go back to continue with the tutorial I was no longer connected to the server, and thus when I was running the command I would see the error. I dunno, I think that's what happened. Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

npm install

It works now. Thanks a lot for your help. Would have never figured out by myself:)

Awesome idea with this API btw, i almost gave up because i'm not familiar with nodejs, but when i found this plugin i realised that this is no longer an issue:)

Great work guys
