Is that change made to my plugin? If so, can you open a pull request to get it in? 😄

@PitaJ said in welcome page error:

Please ensure the URL value in config.json matches exactly the URL at which you access your site.

thanks, that solved the issue.

@PitaJ said in Text Overlapping Issue:

What version of NodeBB and nodebb-theme-persona are you on? How you tried stopping nodebb, running ./nodebb build, and starting it back up?

We are on Ver 1.12.2 and Persona. I’ve stopped and built from cli multiple times and result is the same. What should I be looking at?

yes, ban a user from a specific category or thread.

nodebb-plugin-customize

Thanks, it worked!

We have invite capability, but we don't have the capability to bulk invite users, just one by one. However, if this is something that interests you, we could build this out as a feature in NodeBB. Give us a shout at [email protected] and we can send over a quote 🙂

Definitely would appreciate updates to our documentation so you can help others facing similar problems! 😄 Glad you're on your way.

@julian said in Recent Card customization:

Sure... it depends on how you set up the widget. Instead of adding it to the global widget area, add it to categories.tpl

Then add another inside category.tpl, which is for each individual category. Then you can restrict it to specific categories (and have it only show up on specific categories).

If you want category-specific recent posts to show up on every single category, you might need to create a separate widget for each category 😬

Yes, but I cannot set it this way, because category restriction setting does not exist in "recent cards" widget. It exists in all others...

Or, do we have problem/mistake in our recent cards widget?

If you have ssh access, there will likely be a way of getting it to work, but I don't know how cpanel will interact with everything.

@PitaJ said in Removing Buttons from Composer:

@crazycells add this to the custom javascript:

window.addEventListener('load', function () { document.documentElement.classList.toggle('is-not-admin', !app.user.isAdmin); });

Then just put .is-not-admin .composer .... instead

Thanks a lot.

@baris said in how to merge topics in admin ?:

Clicking on the topic title should work. Needs better UX though since other tools work by clicking the user avatar.

yeap, it worked. Thanks. I was trying by clicking topic avatars as well.

Anyone Install Nodebb forum by Node js application in Hawkhost's Hosting

I tried but failed. If someone ever did, please give me specific instructions.

Thank you so much!.

Hi! @PitaJ thank you for the quick reply.
I understand that an absolute URL have the protocol, but most of the normal users, at least in our forums, don't know what that is, some use it just because the copied from the browser, but sometimes a user doesn't add it, and having that links as relative URL returns a 404, causing a bad experience.
Some CMS have a sanity check like Django and WordPress if you add a link inside a WordPress, they check if it's another domain and adds the protocol, so the user doesn't have to add it.
I think it's a good measure to prevent bad user experience.

@julian

Thanks. Figured some such, wh/is why I did not want to open bug report prior to checking in 😉

P.S.; Prior to github and markdown becoming defacto I always preferred asciidoc for such duties. Still do. Much richer options for when you need/want them but still dead simple to use when you don't. Also, actually standardized, as contrasted w/the markdown flavor fest. But hey, github made markdown the golden boy for modern devs that never used else. Don't blame 'em cuz devs wanna code not invest time learning different markup 'time savers'. So whaddya gonna do, eh?

Thank you all for the responses and offering your time, I completely wiped the nodebb db in MongoDB and re-restored it and everything is functioning perfectly again. ☺

I never got around to doing anything with it.

We have a few gaming sites and I wanted to have one userbase between them all.

It's likely that this is a bug, not something you can easily fix. Open an issue on GitHub.

Hi, i fixed the problem by reinstalling nodebb. also cleaning all plugins and stuff, and no. I dont have nay custom plugin the only plugin i downloaded before this error was iframely recommended by the admins of this forum.

To resolve this, I changed the Proxy module I was using. It uses less code to implement and works with websockets. I think the NodeBB Node.js proxy documentation is out of date so I'll be submitting a PR with the new method I found.

Working code is as follows:

Another potential GOTCHA here is that this Prixy setup needs to be declared ABOVE the 'body-parser' module (if it's being used). The wrong order will prevent post requests from being proxied.
