@baris Awesome news! Thanks for the swift reply 🙂

Hi Developers,

I filed a feature request recently, asking for hierarchical groups (for the full description see: https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/7410).

I completely understand this request may not help everyone, and perhaps its not considered something that should be added to the core.

To that end, does anyone have an idea how to efficiently implement the above in a plugin? I am trying to avoid multiple accesses to the DB, and obviously redundant c/p. How would you go about implementing that?

Thanks,
JJ,

Hello all,
Because of budget issues, I would like to install nodebb on shared hosting only. I have access to shell. I guess I can install if i have access to shell. Could you please say procedure as I can't find anywhere. Namecheap shared hosting uses cloudlinux OS and gives users to access shell

@MJ said in ./nodebb upgrade not works:

@creatxr

cd nodebb (or path to where nodebb is installed)
./nodebb stop
git fetch
git checkout v1.12.x
git merge origin/v1.12.x
./nodebb upgrade

after upgrade

./nodebb start

I have a "one liner" that I use like this. This is what I do...

I put the version right at the beginning so there is just one place to change it (a script and variable would be better, but I'm lazy.) I do the NPM install manually because it used to fail. Been using the same command since the 0.6.0 days, I'd guess. And I add the log at the end so that if I look away, I always see the log scrolling to know that things are okay.

I'm having the same issue: https://community.nodebb.org/topic/13753/incorrect-url-after-login

What exactly would I have to do ?

@dcook The color you want to change is not property of the categories, but rather the property of the theme. Black is the theme color for section categories (non-clickable link) and blue is the theme color for non-section/normal categories (clickable link).
That's why there is no option to customize it on categories management.

Try this:

Wow, nice find! It's a really important bug. How I had never tested this before?! 😆

It worked 🙂

I have now a user icon there instead of avatar 🙂

I did get this working.
I moved the nodebb working directory to /home/nodebb/nodebb and changed ownership of that to nodebb:nodebb, now it starts up on boot as the nodebb user just fine.

Thank you all very much for the help.

Solved. I fixed it by changing the theme, rebuild and restart and then change the theme back to original, rebuild and restart.

@jtsimoes You are really ｎｉｃｅ！

@ofaruksahin said in Offline setup:

Yeah, you're right. Because my request is not respond 404. It's going slowly and sometimes 504 time out. So what do you suggests me?
Thank you.

Start with the DNS. If it is slow and only breaks sometimes, DNS is the most likely thing and might be just slow enough that sometimes it works barely and sometimes it fails. 504 is server side error unable to respond.

If JS files are trying to be pulled from remote, then DNS has to be used. If DNS is pointing externally, we'd expect the delay. If it works sometimes, that means that there is some sort of fallback that is likely just timing out sometimes.

Today i updated my forum to v1.12.0 and i found the menu 😉

I think it works too before the update. A user problem 🙂

Problem solved.

Try the Ubuntu docs instead of the Debian docs. They're more up to date.

domain/admin->extends->widget

@PitaJ Perfect, that solved it, thank you for the more information, I didn't realize it was referring to the port as well.

You can mark this as resolved!

@yariplus Work! Thanks 🐶
