General Discussion

@BDHarrington7 Thanks for the info!

As psychobunny suggests with the referenced links, you cant elaborate your own SSO plugin to gain acces from nodeBB to the user stored on your own database, making your Rails system to act as the SSO provider. The other link is the write API nodebb provides. You would have to install this plugin in order to have it working.

Hi FreeBSD users and everyone else. I read the documentation concerning the FreeBSD installation procedure and I was wondering if an alternate solution could be added. I have NodeBB running on FreeBSD but I did not need gcc at all. The packages I needed to install where the following. % pkg query -e '%a = 0' %o devel/git devel/gmake www/nginx www/npm databases/redis So what is the technical reason to install gcc? Did you in the past encountered problem while building without it ? Thank you.

Should be compatible with 0.8x but I haven't updated the package.json yet. For now you can install manually. Although there's still quite a lot of work to be done before its complete!

@agusputra said: It seems bug of facebook-sso. Read this : https://github.com/julianlam/nodebb-plugin-sso-facebook/issues/21 I've been having this issue too.

@andreapernici said: I agree that the /category/ slug is not useful at all. Not useful from a Usability perspective and not useful from a SEO perspective. (...) But why not putting a URL value in the database for the categories to get rid of the id and the /category/ slug? I agree, and to add to this: the /category/ and /topic/ slugs look a little bit weird on non-English installs of NodeBB. It would be nice if we can drop these for translation consistency. I don't mind the number in the url; that is also helpful if two topics share the same name. (Just wondering, is there an update for this request? ).

When markdown is enabled those descriptions are parsed as markdown and placed in a <p> tag so they get different styling. You can just reduce the font size from custom CSS tab in acp.

Ahhhh, Why would you want to do something so evil!! Anyway, just call bootbox in the Custom HTML section of the ACP. (Make sure you check the box at the bottom.) <script> $(function(){ bootbox.alert("Welcome"); }); </script> Bootbox docs for more info: http://bootboxjs.com/

The sso plugin will allow users to log in using the WordPress account. The blog comments allows users to post replies to content either on the forum. Or in the comments section of your WordPress site. They sync across both.

@Nivix You don't grant the users actual power. Someone from YouTube said the same thing. (Can't find it where he said it though, probably in one of his livestreams) But the way to do this is to setup some clear guidelines on how you want your users to behave, Let the users engage the user in question without harassing him. Thats basically the whole trick. Adjusting is easier if the whole group communicates in the same way.

@psychobunny have good holidays GH : https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/3743

My wife (graphic designer) recommends some sort of row highlighting (alternating row colors) to better separate each location. I will try to get more out of her later.

@bhamrick Fair enough! I just figured it'd be fair to point out that marketing gimmicks are iffy at best- I find users appreciate honesty and straight forward business a lot.

I just did an install of NodeBB 0.8.2 and it installed nodebb-plugin-emailer-mandrill 0.3.1 with it which is only compatible with NodeBB 0.9.^. In addition to the declared version problem I was also getting a socket.io/helpers related error on NodeBB startup until I removed the mandrill plugin. I worked around this problem by removing mandrill and then installing it like this: npm install [email protected] I poked around to see how nodebb installs nodebb-plugin-emailer-mandrill and it appears that this plugin is installed in a special way? It is not mentioned in the package.json requirements for nodebb.

OH! my bad!

And this is where we're at today with it. Free -m and top ordered by mem shown. [image: 2Q293TI.png] (Bear in mind this is using Nginx and not Apache, nor has Nginx yet been configured to point the other domain to the Wordpress install, php5 has also been turned off)

Oh, that makes sense.

Kind of hard for me to test as an administrator lol. I can post regardless of settings. I guess it's time for a low-privilege account.
