General Discussion

I thought Google Drive was geared towards personal usage and sharing? Can't see this being good for public use.

@peter if you're looking to limit how long a post can be edited for, I'm not sure if that's presently possible. It would be an interesting feature, but if I recall there was need for a hook creation by the developers before enhanced user group permissions could be established

GTA:VC will always have a special place in my heart. Beat it 100% at least 5 times, and even learned how to drift in the cars in that game XD what a waste of my adolescence.
ain.

+1 for Vice City being the best!

I think that I am the only person how did not enjoy GTA:V. I think it was the most overrated game to come out last year. It looked great and the maps are huge but the story lacked a lot of things. I found it hard to follow and it didn't really explain much.
I can't even remember most of it and I only played it a year a go but I can remember a hell of a lot more of GTA: Vice City.

@julian why didn't I think of that. 😆 I shall do that.

@julian If that code still works, then yes, it should. I stacked 10toship with the $100 student code that a kind member offered me. 😄

NONE OF THEM WORK 😞 !!!!!!!!!!!

Try reading the documentation.

Note: I believe vps.me requires that you install Ubuntu yourself first. I believe they only support up to 12.04, so you'd need to install the 32 bit version of that, then install NodeBB.

So I just built a quick VM locally and followed the guides I mentioned above. Did nothing differently except I didn't install php and apache before and start ripping things out. It works flawlessly. I can only imagine at this point its something with my server and I think I may just wipe it and start clean, using nginx only instead of apache.

Thanks for looking at this stuff guys - I appreciate it.

Edit - welp, it works great now. Probably has this whole time. The URL I was using to hit the forums was set to be x.x.132.x, it had to be x.x.135.x. Hey, at least I learned a TON about nodebb and nginx 🙂 I'll take it.

You need to write a server side script to go through all the users and update their urls.

Something like the following should work.

var db = require('./database'), user = require('./user'), async = require('async'); db.getSortedSetRange('users:joindate', 0, -1, function(err, uids) { async.eachLimit(uids, 50, updateUserImage, function(err) { console.log('done'); }); }); function updateUserImage(uid, next) { user.getUserFields(uid, ['image', 'gravatarpicture', 'uploadedpicture'], function(err, userData) { // do your update here, can check current data from userData user.setUserField(uid, 'gravatarpicture', 'some_new_url', next); }); }

Not too sure if this is a bit late or not, but I have converted the phpBB importer to work for myBB
https://www.npmjs.org/package/nodebb-plugin-import-mybb

Needed one for a site I am actually busy with at the moment.
Hope this helps someone

I am attempting to update my NodeBB install (hosted on heroku) to the newest version. Initially after I upgraded I could not see the login form at all (the login page was blank except for the nav bar). After doing "$./nodebb reset settings" I can now see the login form but attempting to login results in the server crashing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please excuse me if I posted this in the incorrect section.

@babaggeii The write API would contain support for API keys (and later on, access tokens), so there are plans to allow the write API to expose user-specific routes using the same user auth system as well.

That should be fixed as well now, thanks.

Try your url at https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/ with no caching, facebook usually caches the og data.

A brand new component to replace panels, thumbnails, and wells.

Hahah, poor @psychobunny. NodeBB was designed against Bootstrap 2, and Bootstrap 3 introduced panels, which @psychobunny had already created. They looked the same too.

Now panels are going away XD

@psychobunny

With regard to the SSO module, does it also create "local" data for the user or is there an expectation that the SSO provides the horizontal and the vertical there? If it does, are there recommended methods for adding the extra fields for the user?

Worked perfectly, thanks.

@xbenjii Brilliant! Thanks 🙂

I have about 20-30 domains myself, most of them are unused and have cobwebs in the corners.
