Thanks @baris. It was an obscure permission issue between Docker and DigitalOcean. Does nodebb not error out when it can't write files as expected?

@crazycells From what I can tell, there aren't any videos on the board itself but links to youtube. I wondered if nodebb could handle video uploads itself. I would need to allow users to upload images and videos on their profiles, like a personal feed on social media. After doing more research, I see that images can be uploaded but videos have to be a link to the video. I see there are several embed plugins too. With that in mind, and since nodebb has an API, I can think of a few things that might work so need to look into those.

Use FreeBSD 14 all stable and last and easy to use

I use FreeBSD 14 with nodebb , no problem and all perfect

@julian said in About seo: @vitasllc will be fixed in v3.6.0 Some not critical issue with "COMMENTS" stay continued...

@chipvn thank you for the kind words happy holidays

Yes if you have your own expressjs app then you should be able to use the templating engine we use. It is a separate project here https://github.com/benchpressjs/benchpressjs.

So I close this yesterday and today I get this from Google; [image: 1703106715404-b75f4384-ab51-4873-b6b8-e6fb873a06c9-image.png] It's kind of odd really because other than posts on the forums, no changes really get made in the settings. Somehow Google just keeps everyone jumping and jumping.

Yes, enable, of course :).

Your best bet is to create a registration interstitial https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17662/how-do-i-create-a-registration-interstitial

Banner? Please provide more info, thanks.

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. [image: 1702343859542-1d0937cb-ddad-4a7f-9467-c30201c5cd53-image.png]

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.
