    Could it be that you have it installed?
    If it is not installed, then you will need to install it via npm.

    Connect to your server via ssh Go to your nodebb folder. Run the following command there: npm install nodebb-plugin-beep Go to your site, plugins, and activate the plugin. Reboot

    Tags are lowercased so we don't have to deal with different versions, NodeBB and nOdEbB would be different tags if we allowed uppercase letters.

    If you want them to have the first letter capitalized you can add the text-capitalize class to the tags.

    If it is not showing in the UI you will have to look at the records in the database. Look at the key followers:<target_uid> if the uid of the other user is in there you can remove it.

    mongodb

    db.objects.deleteOne({_key: "followers:<target_uid>", value: "<uid_of_other_user>" });

    redis

    zrem followers:<target_uid> <uid_of_other_user>

    @darkpollo Thanks for the feedback. Yes, some sort of user/admin manual would be a good idea. Unfortunately we do not have the technical writers available to do this sort of work 😄

    Getting technical documentation is already a feat 😆

    In the meantime, we did have @jay-moonah put together the "Answers" category, which contains quite a bit of admin-related materials.

    It was indeed not necessary to have the _uid.

    Wonderful then. This is usually a job that ends up being a rabbit hole with a lot of other software.

    Thanks. I'll give it a try.

    There is no filtering do you mean sorting the replies? It is already available in the sort by dropdown.

    Seems like whatsapp prefers to pick a different og:image then linkedin. If you inspect the source of that page you can see all the different og:image tags set.

    image.png

    Linked in uses the first one, whatapp seems to pick the last one which is the og:image uploaded in the ACP page.

    If you want to get rid of some of these on the topic page you can probably use filter:middleware.renderHeader and modify data._header that's passed to the hook.

    I'm trying to understand how google indexes my Nodebb forum, maybe one of you could help me ?…
    Obviously i'd like to get as many clicks on links to my forum as possible, but from what i'm gathering, whenever people search for words that do appear on my forum, they get different links (to the last post that's been published in a thread , or to a random page within the thread).
    e.g. there's a thread about a specific movie on my forum, the thread holds the same title as the movie itself, but when people google the name of the movie + forum, they get results pointing to a post in the middle of the thread, not to the first page.
    So no matter how successful a topic of discussion is on my site, it never really gets the recognition i wish it had on google, not because it's not indexed but because it is indexed several times, via multiple links, some of which hold no specific interest.
    How can i send clear instructions to google on which pages are relevant / important to index ?
    (sorry if this is a silly question, i'm clearly no expert… 😕)

    I propose we classify this traffic as a synthetic-entity traffic, if anyone has a better handle on the correct classification term, speak now. 😎

    The categories are added an unread class when they are unread, you can target that class and turn the color back to normal

    ul.categories-list li.unread .title { color: initial; }

    It is fully supported, our tests run on all 3 databases with nodejs 18 and 20. However we suggest using mongodb & redis as that is what we use ourselves and on our hosted clients.
